Hey Greg,

I’ve owned several of their cds that always sounded great in my vehicle. I have high hopes for the vinyl!

Steve, how does Fashion Nugget sound?  I streamed it on Qobuz and that sounded amazing.  Waiting for my vinyl copy to show up...

Another surprise, 

Frank Black & The Catholics 

Complete Studio Albums 

Remastered from original tapes/180 g clear vinyl

 

Local Hero wasn’t really that close of a contest to my ears. My OG Radio station promo copy was bested in every way by the Mofi. My promo copy isn’t bad by any stretch, I’d call it above average vinyl sonically. Mobile Fidelity did a really good job with this new press.

@slaw oh brother, another pricey one to the wishlist! Thanks, Steve
 

This one is great tunes but tiny "mix in a box"

I’ve listened to the first 3 titles in the Knopfler box and I’m very impressed @sbank .

So, the Knopfler box is all the Abbey Road remasters, right? Since I agree with @slaw about Local Hero, the box might be more of the same?

@j_husker  Who won the Local Hero shootout? Was it a buzzer-beater or a blow out?

Last Night:

1990/2015 Epic/Friday Music remaster

Good job by Friday Music. Much better than the Mercury remasters of their first two albums.

That is a great Calexico album Steve. Thanks again!

Note: Check out "Travelall" & "Tool Box" from them when you have some time. Similar style, think you'll enjoy...

Recently got the Mark Knopfler box.  So far, 3 titles in, Love it!!!

 

 

 

My issue with the "Local Hero" from Abbey Road,  

No soundstage spread at all.

Great to hear, Sir 

Working too much and not listening nearly enough but breaking in a new table and cart 

gwenifer raymond - strange lights over garth mountain

 

gwenifer plays acoustic guitar (sometimes banjo - check out her version of idumea on youtube) in the john fahey style and she absolutely rips. heavy and zoned out cosmic plucking. this is her newer album but everything she’s put out has been good
