Mono / Nowhere now here
I have this album and really like it. A LOT of sound. It’s interesting to me to compare this record listening on my open speakers to listening to the file on headphones. The record has more and depth and presence but on the stream it is a little easier to hear what’s going on with all the harmonics. Glad I have the record, it’s in a very cool package.

Her violin sounds real. Real wood. The recording is so good you can hear the nuanced tonal changes in her movements. It’s not bright (tilted down?) but very transparent. One of my best records. Forgot to mention : vinyl package is especially lovely - don’t get that on the stream.

Joni Mitchell - "Dog Eat Dog"
Had this on CD since it first came out in 1985. Just picked it up on vinyl. Here's one of my favorites from this album:
|
Elton John - "Rock of the Westies"
Not one of Elton John’s most popular albums, but it does contain one of my all-time favorite Elton John songs - "I Feel Like a Bullet".

James - Streaming Hillary - Paris now…..i may have a crush, again…. how is the tone color on vinyl?
Jim, it’s wonderful on vinyl. Obviously a digital recording, but IMO, still sounds better on vinyl.
Hilary is incredible. Have most her CD’s.

+1 for Cure For Pain!

Jim,
My wife got me in trouble with "security" at a Mellencamp concert back in the day. She was a big fan & wanted to get closer to the stage than they were allowing. I was backing her up (LOL). Security won.
Songs:OHIA / Ghost tropic

streaming the new Mellencamp….digging it..i might be in that same season of life….
|
Love that "Morphine" album Tom. It's one of their best IMO
Ditto that Jim for the "Jesse Sykes" album. Great choice
Pere Ubu / New picnic time

Tom….wow, that’s just wonderful…..i got to get more serious culling…will get to it…eventually….

Took the latest pile of culls to Plaid Room Records today to sell/trade. I had a bottom line price in mind - $130. Was shocked when the offer came back - $315 cash or $375 trade. Holy cow, record price inflation is real!. Anyway, I took $226 cash and the rest in credit for the following:
Daniel Lanois - "Heavy Sun" new
Robbie Robertson - "Sinematic" new
Morphine - "Cure for Pain" new
Elton John - "Rock of the Westies" used (sentimental value)
Joni Mitchell - "Dog Eat Dog" used (sentimental value)
Was happy as a clam! On the TT now:
Daniel Lanois - "Heavy Sun"
|
Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter - Oh, My Girl
|
The Golden Palominos / Blast of silence
|
Cat Power - The Covers, then server rip copy of The Greatest…dig her

Crisis was one of my favorites by Supertramp. Saw them live right after the Quietest Moments album. I can still envision them on stage. One of my favorite bands from the 70’s.Hodgson and Davies were a great pair.

@tomic601 and @boxer12 Jim and Tim, yeah, Deerhoof have evolved a lot over their long history. They formed in 1994 and I first saw them in 1996 when I was working in San Francisco. Grux from Caroliner recommended I go see them. I was totally on board after the live shows.
Amazing they've been together for 28 years and counting.

@tgilg the Supertramp album, Crisis, was a go-to when living in the dorms, 1975 - 1976. I agree with you that it was under rated. It is a stellar Supertramp album and holds well to this day. I am so glad to have a pp press, in perfect condition, in my collection. Please, continue to enjoy it.

The Fraser MacPherson Quintet-Jazz Prose(CJ-269) Side 1 SQ Audiophile
Steven Stills-Manassas Side 3
Lavern Baker-Sings Bessie Smith(Speakers Corner) Side 2
Joni Mitchell-The Hissing Of Summer Lawns Side 1 SQ Audiophile
Brunch-Concerto No.1(Perlman Angel S-36963) Side 2 SQ Audiophile
A great night when 5/8 recordings are Audiophile level. Willie had the weakest SQ at 4.3(above average) but what an overlooked recording. The SQ champ was very close between all 5 recordings. The crown goes to Fraser MacPherson, it lacked the very slight digital? edge of Chapter 8 and Hodgson(Doug Sax). I rarely comment on performance level since it's even more subjective then sound quality, but all 8 recordings rate 5/5.

The Family of Mann - "First Light"
I have no idea where this album came from. I don’t recall buying it. Maybe it came in one of the small lots that were gifted to me. Seems out of place for any of those lots as it’s NM, and most of those were, uh, not...
Anyway, taking a listen and it’s pretty good so far.
Edit: OK, this record is much better than I was expecting. First, it is in MN condition and plays very quietly. SQ is very good. Musically, pretty good too. It's a keeper. Saved from the deep cull. Going back on the shelf.
