Various – Still On The Line: A Tribute to Jimmy Webb (Flannelgraph 2015)
Jim Toth (Wooden Wand) gifted me this when I bought Death Seat. He has a song on it. The record has grown on me. Worth checking out. Some odd mixing which is a little quirky. Check out the finger slides on S1T5.

Zubin Mehta and Pinchas Zukerman with the Los Angeles Philharmonic - Bruch violin concerto #1, Lalo Symphony Espangnole. Columbia Master Works, originally 1979, but this seems to be a reissue.
really nice recording and performance |
Sarah Vaughan – All Time Favorites By (Mercury Wing 1963 mono)
I'm lucky to have a NM copy.

Roy Harper - The Sophisticated Beggar (Big Ben 1977 RE [1967])
Recorded in a shed. A gem. The original on Strike is worth a lot.

Streaming the Jimmy Webb tribute - new music, love it !!!! |
If anyone sees the tip of my Decca Garrott Brothers Grey Export stylus flying by, let me know. |
Got some Pixies “Doolittle” MoFi pressing on deck, then into some Bad Brains “Quickness”, go onto spinning some “Lions” by The Black Crowes, and I think I’ll end the night with the unforgettable Mr. Tom Petty’s, “Wildflowers”.

Bummer, @noromance. Are ya gonna have John Wright replace the diamond with a Paratracer stylus? |
Billie Eilish – When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? (Darkroom 2019 orange vinyl)
This is a fine album. It has subterranean bass like you've never heard from a record.
|
@bdp24 Thanks man. I dunno TBH. It's on the seconadary rig. Probably a LC. I’ve gone off the Paratrace. In my main rig, in the SuperGold/Decapod, while it has more emotion, it’s unforgiving and noisier than the LC on my Garrott Gold. I swapped in my backup Audio Technica VM750SH and it’s surprisingly silent in the groove.

@tomic601
ah.... these unfortunate events happen..... bummer
Thanks. I'm irked. Was adjusting VTA when arm swung out across a record with a thunk. I played the whole side wondering why there was increased sizzling surface noise on the right channel. Amazingly, it sounded mostly fine. Checked stylus under magnifier and the whole tip was gone! Replayed the disk with backup and no damage appears to be done... |
@noromance VTA on the fly gives me the willies... |

@tomic601 Not on the fly. It jumped out of the arm rest due to my incompetence. |
@noromance ... well in a long life as a vinyl junkie, perhaps the saying should be: Let he who has never trashed a cartridge cast the first cantilever.... |
Or perhaps... But for the grace of Grace go I
