Reuben, I never get tired of Heartbeat City and have a number of different copies of it. I probably need to pull one out today and see how it sounds with my new cartridge. |
Guys,
Thanks for the love of "Heartbeat City".
@slaw -
How is that MFSL version of "Companion"? I have the Premonition 2XLP 33/45 mix issue. I'm not much of a fan of Patricia Barber. However, her performance on the live album - "Companion" is fantastic. |
It sounds great @reubent. |
Listening to Companion again |
@reubent,
I bought all of the MFSL Patricia Barber 33 & 45rpm until "Verse", I do have the Cole Porter as well. I played the heck out of them at the time.
Listening to "Companion" 45rpm again was a new experience with the Noteworthy Audio cable as my phono cable. (Tim is going to send me a dedicated phono cable to try). It’s on another level of openness. Percussion is fantastic! This cable does everything well.
BTW, I'm over the 50 hour mark now. |
The Black Heart Procession – One (SDRL 2016 RE WHT [1998])
|
Dan Auerbach "Keep it Hid"
The lower frequency representation on this lp is pretty remarkable. |
The Black Heart Procession – 2 (Touch And Go 2014 RE [1999])
|
The Cars - Heartbeat City, MFSL |
Willie Nelson "Red Headed Stranger" Impex. Remarkable!
Again, I always thought this was a demo disc, now with the Noteworthy Audio IC, a whole new perspective.
Willie’s guitar is brought forth with amazing clarity. His vocals are as well.
If your cartridge isn't set up correctly, this lp will let you know it |
On a bit of a Gerry Rafferty binge...., playing everything I got |
FWIW, (my brief ERS tape venture). I ’ve has great success in wrapping the PC ( one turn) on each end feeding my Hydras that are daisy chained to another Hydra. When I tried both ends of the PC connecting the additional Hydra, I noticed a dullness, so just taping the input end there now. Using the tape on the input end on the tt and amp to good effect. This is turning out to be a great/cheap tweak. Gonna order some more while www.partsconnexion.com is offering free shipping. |
First Aid Kit – The Lion’s Roar (Wichita 2012)
Recommended.
|
Dinah Shore – Moments Like These (RCA Victor 1958 mono)
Raised the VTA 1mm on this. Snap! Delicious.
|
@noromance ,
This tape may be a better solution to your teflon tape/fuse tweak?
I'll definitely try it there |
On "All Apologies" easy to hear their timing/note mistakes that I never noticed before |
+1 tomic601 on your Gerry Rafferty binge! Been a fan since Baker Street was not even in high school yet. Hope you have North And South(1988) a lost 80's gem! |
GoreckI Symphony No 3 with Dawn Upshaw
Nonesuch pressing, one of very few RDF. This one will stretch your system. |
Elvis Presley - 24karat Hits - 45rpm Analogue Productions 3 disk set - gawd damn if this ain't one of the best pieces of vinyl I have ever heard. I have had this for 3 or 4 years and I am just amazed every time I play this pressing. |
@slaw - hey, buddy! +1 on that Impex Willie Nelson - that pressing is so frikkin great! |
@slaw hey, BTW - since you mentioned Patricia Barber and Impex.... Did you see that Impex has a 1step that is about to ship on Patricia Barber's Cafe Blue? I have had it on preorder for about 10 months or so. I am not much of a PB fan but her stuff is so well recorded and I love Impex so I am interested to see how it sounds. Didn't know if you were aware? |

Aretha Franklin - Aretha's Gold - 45rpm Mofi
Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms - 45rpm Mofi |
I'm streaming the Patricia Barber Companion album. Great stuff! Looks like the MFSL vinyl version has gotten pretty pricy. Maybe I'll pick up one of the Premonition pressings. |
Yeah, I've had that pre-ordered for a while @6t5-gto |
Interested to hear it, if it is as good as the Mofi One Steps or UHQR it should be impressive sounding |
Miles Davis - Nefertiti - MFSL 45rpm - stunning in every way |
ZZ Top - Deguello. This copy is a little bit noisy but it has a really cool alternate Black cover. |
