I'll get them all together for you Jim. Do you want those horrid 1 steps?

That's a cool album jacket Bill!
Hey Steve, I agree! Another thing to love about the LP is all the cool cover art. It adds to the fun of playing them, imo.
|
Little Charlie And The Nightcats – Disturbing The Peace (Alligator 1988)
|
2nd arrival. New copy off Discogs…
Richard Thompson - Live in Austin TX. New West Records 2LP gatefold 2012
Recorded 2001, Austin City Limits
|
First of two that arrived today. Yea, this probably seems unusual for me, but had all their CD’s when they arrived on the scene. Listened to one a few days ago, and realized this was easily had on vinyl, so went for it. It definitely grooves….just like I remember.
Soul II Soul - Vol II (1990-A New Decade). Virgin 1990
|
@sbank Yes, sounds great on vinyl.
how's the SQ on First Aid Kit – The Big Black & The Blue (Wichita 2010), think it's worthwhile over the digital?
|
That's a cool album jacket Bill!
The Church "Gold Afternoon Fix"
1990/Arista
|
First Aid Kit – Who By Fire, Live Tribute To Leonard Cohen (Columbia 2021)
Not what I expected as it's live and the recording is just okay but the music and presentation is growing on me.

@scottiet - Welcome to AudiogoN and to the best, and most popular thread on AudiogoN. Keep 'em coming....
|
@scottiet
I couldn't agree more with you. Great report!
|
Paolo Nutini - "Last Night in the Bittersweet" again...
To anyone who says there is no good music being produced today, I say "you are sadly mistaken"...
|
Dire Straits Brothers in Arms. Excellent recording as well as great music. The vinyl far exceeds my Apple lossless digital even with an Ortofon red.
|
King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King. 50th Anniversary Steven Wilson remaster.
|
Kenny Burrell with Coleman Hawkins - Bluesey Burrell I have played this a few times as of late. It's really a great album.
Steely Dan - Two Against Nature Got this last week, second time playing it. AP/QRP new issue. Makes the most out of your analog front end. And excellent Dan music, too.
Iron Butterfly - In-A-Gadda Da-Vida Got this last year, the MoFi reissue. Lots of fun. Brings back memories from 8th grade. I saw these guys during my high school years, and really close to the stage. Good memories.

My mistake, I also have a UHQR of Jimi Hendrix, Are You Experienced. I hope that AP does some more UHQR issues.
|
A couple of classic jazz records.
Mingus - Ah Um Music On Vinyl issue, and it is quite good. Very quiet vinyl.
Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue AP/QRP UHQR 33rpm. AP really did an outstanding job with reinvigorating the UHQR process. Pricey, but I hope they do a few more. This copy is #1,177 and I believe they make 1,000 copies per stamper. Thus, 177th copy from stamper #2. My only other UHQR is from the original introduction in the early 1980s which was Mobile Fidelity and JVC (JVC had the vinyl formula and pressing process that was the UHQR technology). I have a pristine copy of 'I Robot' that I bought when it first released. I wish that I had bought more of those UHQRs. I believe they made only 8 titles, and that was it.

Václav Neumann conducts Martinů - Symphonies No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5. The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Supraphon 2LP gatefold 1982. Czechoslovakian release.

Thanks @bdp24, also a couple LPs at kaseychambers.com
FWIW, it’s Divinyls—no “The”. Spellcheck or late night fog? 🤔
|
@sbank and @bslon: The two Kasey Chambers/Shane Nicholson albums are available on LP, on Sugar Hill Records. Good music.
|
@sbank Hi Spencer, there’s so many more that I couldn’t get to. The Church was next in the queue but I was nodding off. I don’ t have KC or CB on vinyl.
|
@bslon Bill, Kasey Chambers would fit nicely, but I haven't seen any of hers on vinyl. No Courtney Barnett?
