Talking of Floyd, what would opinion be on best copy of The Wall to search out to buy?
|
@uberwaltz,
IMO, the latest re-master of The Wall bests all other copies I own. Make sure it’s the James Guthrie/Sony/circa 2016. If you look back through this thread, @6t5-gto and I remarked on this lp. The original US pressing /Masterdisk, sounds great, but you said, "the best".
Turn it up!
|
Thx Slaw! Time to go shopping, only ever had it on cd .
|
Iron & Wine "Weed Garden". This is the rest of the "Beast Epic" sessions from earlier in 2018, only this lp is @ 45rpm. Tasty!
|
Magnolia Electric Co. "Trials & Errors" SQ=EX! |
+1 on slaw's suggestion of the most recent reissue of The Wall, it sounds awesome
3rd playing of the newest Mark Knopfler - Down the Road Wherever, really impressed, excellent in all respects |
Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge - Mofi One Step Paul Simon - Graceland - EX reissue |
NY - After the Goldrush - OP, fantastic

The Best Of The Strawbs.
Trying out a new to me cart, Scheu Analog MC SL.

Been out of the loop a couple of weeks. My father-in-law died last week in Detroit and we have been settling his estate. He was 87 years old and a great lover of music, including gospel, jazz and Motown. I will spend the evening cleaning and listening to some albums he gave me. And I will think of him with each song.
Dizzy Gillespie and His Orchestra- Afro Dee Clark- Dee Clark Charlie Parker- Charlie Parker Memorial

@stevecham ,
I love the fact that you're already thinking of what to play a day ahead.
|
@slaw: That's what weekends are for ;-) |
Taking a break in the middle of the "Lioness" box to play Glen Hansard "Rhythm & Repose". If your a fan of these two artists, you’ll understand why. |
BTW, the GH lp is of great SQ! |
Continuing with "The Lioness Sessions" 2nd/lp |
Dan Auerbach "Keep It Hid" after a good flattening |
Linda Ronstadt "Heart Like a Wheel" /Cisco Music |
Mary Gauthier "Live @ Blue Rock" |
Melody Gardot "Currency of Man" |
Alison Krauss "Forget About It" /Rounder/Diverse
|
Jason Isbell "Something More Than Free" |
I moved a couple of turntables around yesterday, putting my Project RPM 9 in my main system and mounting a re-tipped Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood on it. I've had the Virtuoso sitting in the closet for probably a year or so because I've been afraid to use it.
I've broken the cantilever off not once, but twice. It's the most expensive cartridge I own now, LOL.
The RPM 9/Virtuoso combination bettered my Clearaudio Emotion / Hana SL setup, which surprised me (pleasantly) as that sounded very nice. The Virtuoso has more shimmer and sparkle and "air" on the top end, great separation and soundstage, and is very detailed.
I played my brand new 180 gram copy of Blood on the Tracks and my MOFI copy of side two of Fleetwood Mac S/T. It was pretty close to audio nirvana.
The acoustic guitars on Blood on the Tracks sounded really nice and World Turning on Fleetwood Mac was really dynamic. I heard some background vocals from Stevie on Say you Love Me that I never noticed before.
