This is one I’ve been searching for. From Morrow Records.
Thanks for the reminder. I have not yet been to Morrow records, even though it's probably only 15-20 miles from my house. I need to stop in and check it out. I have been to Mike's home a couple of times when he used to have local audio group meetings in his home demo area.

Richard Thompson - Electric. New West Records 2013
|
Foreigner - S/T. I haven't listened to this in a long time. I remember when it first came out, I saw them at Memorial Stadium in Seattle with Heart and Tower of Power and a couple of other bands. Lou Gramm was an amazing performer and they had a full repertoire on their first tour since there wasn't a bad song on their first album. Then... it seemed like it was all downhill from there and I lost interest in them. Listening to this again, I'm taken by the quality of the production and the great songwriting and Lou's passionate performance. Sometimes a little distance gives you a different appreciation.

Cincinnati is a really nice town.
Well, as a Clevelander, I find/found it an ‘interesting’ town. While I was at UC, I was allowed to help vote Jerry Springer into office as their mayor (met him a couple years later when working on the Cincinnati Union Terminal renovation into a strange shopping center ala Boston’s Faneuil Hall. That didn’t last long). That (Jerry Springer) sure seemed an odd choice a few years later 😁 I still do some work in Cincinnati occasionally, yea, it’s nice. UC has changed quite a bit since the 70’s, but I do enjoy coming home.

Good to hear, hopefully it gets better as it breaks in,

@bkeske Ahhh, sorry, my mistake. Cincinnati is a really nice town.

Hey Tim. Congratulations on the new DAC.

Hey Brian, The DAC still has some breaking in to go, but thoroughly enjoying it. It's a keeper for sure.

Will do Tim, thanks. How’s the new DAC?
The Dead recording brings back memories, I saw them about that time at the University of Indiana when I was going to UC….well, saw them more than a couple times from 75-78
|
Jim, How is the system sounding?
Steve, Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out. Liked the "Terry Allen / Smokin the dummy," BTW
Brian (bkeske), When you have some time, check out (stream) "Road Trips Vol.1 No. 4". I think you'll like it. (It's from '78)

Agreed, Burgers may be my overall favorite Hot Tuna LP 👍🏼
|
Sallie Ford & the Sound Outside - Untamed Beast. She's got a great voice and her band makes solid garage rock.
|
Foghat - In The Mood For Something Rude. This is an album of covers that was probably overlooked by many (including me). It's actually pretty good and my copy is close to NM.

Burgers by Hot Tuna. Simply fantastic album recording. Water Song is the pinnacle but Sunny Day Strut is probably better. The whole album just works and flows seamlessly. It really is a wonderful production. I also just love the album art and the photograph on the back side. It just reflects happiness in the moment of a wonderful era.
Right On

Dean Wareham "I Have Nothing to Say to the Mayor of LA"

I think I put this lp on my best of thread that year.
|
The Colter Wall lp is engaging but not up to his other lp’ SQ.
