Thanks James - not a copy for sale on Discogs - will check Yep Roc site later....
Steve - I do have a fair bit of AQ and the signal side of my Reference system is all AQ. Casa Pacifica is an evolving bunch of cables with AQ, Kimber, Nordost well represented. My Vintage system is also a mix of Blue Jeans ( pre DBS ) AQ, Fulton, Chord, Kimber, etc....
fun
Jim,

I assume you don’t remember my posting to you and James when Aoife’s new lp was going to be released.

Look back, easy to find.

Oh, I just love the kind of woman 
Who can walk over a man
I mean like a god damn marching band
She says, like literally 
Music is the air she breathes
And the malaprops make me want to fucking scream
I wonder if she even knows what that word means
Well, it's literally not that

Of the few main things I hate about her 
One's her petty, vogue ideas
Someone's been told too many times 
They're beyond their years
By every half-wit of distinction she keeps around
And now every insufferable convo
Features her patiently explaining the cosmos
Of which she's in the middle
Oh my God, I swear this never happens
Lately, I can't stop the wheels from spinning
I feel so unconvincing
And I fumble with your buttons
She blames her excess on my influence 
But gladly Hoovers all my drugs
I found her naked with her best friend in the tub
We sang "Silent Night" in three parts which was fun
'Til she said that she sounds just like Sarah Vaughan
I hate that soulful affectation white girls put on
Why don't you move to the Delta?
I obliged later on 
When you begged me to choke ya


+1 on I love you Honeybear, this track being one one of my all time favorite lyrics by anybody.  
spirit,

Wow, brother....

I've often wondered how he remembers his loong lyrics....

Glad to know you're a fan.
@reubent, Thanks for the welcome!  My new turntable . . embarrassed to say after seeing the equipment you guys use.  I don’t anticipate playing vinyl much, so when my 30+ year old Kenwood died, I was looking for a replacement in the $300-$500 range.  Found an offer from Turntable Lab on a Denon DP—300F for $280.  Denon puts their own lesser cartridge on it, but Turntable Lab was offering an upgrade that included a pre-mounted Ortofon 2M Red, so I bit. 

Im cleaning 40-60 year old records using the Spin-Clean and they don’t sound too bad.  Actually, I don’t remember them sounding this good back in the day.  Of course, the equipment Im playing them through is considerably better than I ever had back then.

Found an old Cream Album and some young Roy Orbison (I inherited records — a lot I didn’t purchase, which is cool too!)
@bob540,

Love your seemingly strong sense of buying vinyl. Don't feel bad for your current TT. It's very nice!
Welcome Bob,   I’m with you and also have just a modest TT and rig but never feel embarrassed to post here.  Mostly it’s the music, right.  And as far as sound quality goes I think you can have both plenty of fun and be interestedly discerning with that Denon.  
What Kenwood did you have?  Direct drive?   
spirit, +1 Hoist is one of my favorites from Phish 

Welcome Bob

Radiohead / In rainbows 
Bob imo any Denon punches far above weight - I just lent buddy my ancient Denon DP-35 with an Ortofon red on it to replace his deck in for repair- he loves it and he runs a recording studio :-) it’s ALL about the music

welcome !!!!!!!!
+1 slaw for "Josephine"
Some great stuff being played tonight!

Songs:OHIA / Ghost Tropic
@tomic601 ,

It seems very often you mention giving away a Basis here, a Denon there...

What a giving person!
BTW, put me on your list.
Fiery Furnaces / Remember

Another great one spirit!

You have more gumption than I slaw. I'll be with you for a while though... :-)
"gumption" Wow @boxer12, I never see that word used anymore....

love it! really!
Dick Wagner has two guitar solos on thIs Solo Peter Gabriel record.  I’d forgotten or maybe never even noticed that.  Nice to have an album cover with notes and credits  in your hands that you can read and enjoy, reminisce over, enrich the listening.   
Funny I was just doing the same thing with the Talking Heads album. Didn't realize Brian Eno played on it as well as helped produce it. 
You know who else is on this first Peter Gabriel album, right?  Fripp.  
This record is genius in its arrangement.  Up and down and one big build up to the last:

When the night shows
The signals grow on radios
All the strange things
They come and go, as early warnings
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
Still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
There's no point in direction we cannot
Even choose a side.
I took the old track
The hollow shoulder, across the waters
On the tall cliffs
They were getting older, sons and daughters
The jaded underworld was riding high
Waves of steel hurled metal at the sky
And as the nail sunk in the cloud, the rain
Was warm and soaked the crowd.
Lord, here comes the flood
We'll say goodbye to flesh and blood
If again the seas are silent
In any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive
Drink up, dreamers, you're running dry.
When the flood calls
You have no home, you have no…

This is pretty good. J. Tillman.

Anyone heard and compared the clear vinyl? No need to have carbon black (or blue) impurities in the PVC.
