Dave Davies - "ALF1-3603"
From the latest Plaid Room Haul
2/3 of the way through the LP. So far, I gotta say its a mess. Horrible recording IMHO. The vocals are recorded very oddly. They sound out-of-phase or have some other type of processing that makes them sound awful.
This one's likely going into the "to trade/to sell" pile for recycling...

I reached into the on-deck bin and pulled out that Jason Isbell and the 400 unit Georgia Blue randomly. Steve, it sounds really good. At least it was, until my girlfriend called and I had to hit the pause button.

It’s a nice change-up during the holidays. Andy, Perry, Bing, Frank, Dean, the Carpenters—all good! The classics, I mean. Especially so at Christmas. Cheers!

As Little Village had Ry Cooder on it, it reminded me of another LP with Ry I have not listened to for a while….
Norman Greenbaum - Petaluma. Reprise 1972

Yea Steve, this is nice. Seems to be getting better as it goes along.
Unfortunately there is a small imperfection on the last song/side 1, but not bad really. It is/was a new sealed copy, so goodness knows why these things happen. US release/reissue.

Brian,
My EU pressing of Little Village is reference SQ.

@sbank,
Spencer, I thought I had all of Laura Veirs......never heard of "Saltbreakers"
|
@6t5-gto How's SQ of the Knopfler box? I'm tempted...
|
@slaw Steve, you're costing my money again! Gillian Welch/David Rawlings "All the Good Times" added to my list.
After a week long workathon, let's get this staycation party started with:
J. Geils Band - Bloodshot (of course it's red vinyl, 🙄)
Laura Veirs - Saltbreakers
Herbie Hancock - Maiden Voyage (Blue Note Classic...$25 bargain!)

FWIW: I decided to replace my original Roxy Music Avalon 1982 LP since there are some reissues out (Czech Republic). The first I received (from Amazon) had some brown goop on the surface I could not remove so I returned it for a second copy. This also had the dried goop (not as much) but also some raised vinyl ridges crossing the grooves. Abhorrent quality control, getting refunded.
