@reubent...never heard of The Trews or Metric. Qobuz has most of their stuff, I’ll need to listen to them. Thanks for the recommendation!

James McMurtry and the Heartless Bastards - "Live in Aught-Three"
|
Jack Johnson - "In Between Dreams"
|
@mofimadness - Do you know the Canadian Band - The Trews? Saw them open for dada a few years ago and they could really bring it live. Hit or miss on their studio recordings, but they were really good live.
How about Metric? There 2009 album - "Fantasies" is pretty good. I especially like the song - "Blindness".
Happy listening!

@paqua123...I have thousands of records from the 70's & 80's. Some are really good and some are really awful. It depends on the mastering, who mastered it, where it was mastered, where it was pressed, the materials used, etc.
I am not from the camp that all original pressings are better, because I have just as many from both sides that are good and bad. YMMV.
|
The Rosebuds "Sand+Silence"

Another Dynaflex that’s great...... Janis Ian "Between The Lines"

I dont think ill be re-buying copies of my old vinyl then

@paqua123 ,
Heavy weight vinyl records supposedly provide a more damped product for hopefully increased listener received information. I have Dynaflex lps that sound great.
One title that was originally released on Dynaflex vinyl that is still highly regarded is Hot Tuna "Recorded Live at the New Orleans, Berkeley House.
