For me its the first or very early LP's of:
Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South"
Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue
Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer"
and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
slipknot1

Small Faces "Ogdens' Nutgone Flakes" 

1985/Compleat Entertainment Corp.

 

My one step Kind of Blue has a freaking … POP…. i am so disappointed they weren’t able to “ fix “ that in the digital domain…..

Normally in the all analog remastering process, a lightning hand on the EQ…can take out those nasty ticks and pops…..

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

@big_greg i can drive down and pickup all the MoFi digital trash… at firesale pricing, of course… wink….

 

Workingman's Dead. Not that fake digital MFSL either, this is my beat up copy from 1973.

Excellent AAA cut by Chris Bellman from original master tapes. Maybe his best live LP, recorded live at The Record Plant

Herbie Hancock - My Point of View - Tone Poet - outstanding! Best Tone Poet ever? 

Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters - AP 33rpm - phenomenal 

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. 

Last Night:

Nektar - Recycled
Steve Reich - Reich/Richter 
Shelly Manne - The Shelly Manne Trio in Zurich
Ravi Shankar  - Two Raga Moods 
Anthony Phillips - The Geese and the Ghost
Dead Can Dance - Spirit Chaser

 

Pablo Cruise / S-T
1975 A&M

Lovely SQ, another nice final cut here with “Ocean Breeze”.

Traffic / John Barleycorn Must Die
1970 United Artists

I may be wrong but I think the saying is “All Killer, No Filler”.


10cc / Deceptive Bends
1977 Mercury 

Fun lyrics, good SQ, great final cut with “Feel The Benefit.”
