Highly enjoying this The Nude Party lp!
A late 60s Rock/top 40's throw back with a Lou Reed twist. |
The Nude Party "S/T" is highly recommend.

I don't own a bad M Ward lp. All sound great! |
@reubent ,
Missed your impressions on the John Hiatt? |
Hey Steve, I enjoyed John Hiatt - "Slow Turning" - Catalog #
B0027601-1. Per Discogs, it is a re-issue on Red vinyl. I have not previously owned this album in any format, however several cuts are included on a Greatest Hits CD I own. I like the material very much, as I like pretty much everything I've ever heard from John Hiatt. He's a gem IMHO. But I didn't find this vinyl LP to be anything special. It's good material, but the SQ is just OK. Not special like the previous listen to my new copy of the re-mastered "Hollywood Town Hall".
If I were looking for a copy of this record, I think I would try to find the earliest vinyl release possible, or maybe an Audiophile pressing, if there is one. |
Steve Winwood - "Arc of a Diver" |
|
Thanks @reubent ,
I own a pp and it sounds superb.One of John's best IMO. |
Howe Gelb "The Coincedentalist"
Sounding superb! |
Chicago Underground Duo / In praise of shadows |
|
Steve happy 90th to Mom - how wonderful:-) |
As I ponder it over the AM Java, Hollywood Town hall was something of a similar launch point for me as well @reu |
Veering to a path like Whiskey Town, Son Volt, Wilco, Blue Rodeo, Junkies... |
Fascinating and totally unexpected Christmas gift from non audiophile brother in law:
lovely Box set of the LP discs launched on the Voyager spacecraft, gold colored vinyl, picture book... nicely curated
I plan to aim at least one Schuman generator towards space when I play this.... |
|
Cool box set Jim. Let me know when you do that, as I want to note if I sleep better that night. |
John Moreland "Big Bad Luv" |
John Hiatt "Terms of My Surrender" |
@slaw Happy Birthday to your mom Steve. My Dad came home from the hospital Christmas Eve and is back to causing trouble for everyone... he’ll turn 91 in a couple of weeks. There is quite a bit of information in the literature about the health benefits of the 40 hz tone. Folks set up tone generators in their basements, some say at just below audible level. I wonder about timbre since a plain sign wave doesn’t sound particularly salubrious to me. Further evidence to me, and the real bass players around here can probably say better, is that after a longer session of playing around on my electric bass (I play along to Foghat albums) I can really feel the effect (I think it’s the rich harmonics) in my head as well as the rest of my body. More study needed. |
Steve based on your prodigious listening marathon sessions , I am not sure you sleep... |
The Secret Sisters "You Don't Own Me Anymore" |
James, I’m thinking about placing several around the house? Seriously.
Unless I'm not understanding your post correctly, sounds like you're using some version? |
James ;-) I think Honey Hush as loud volumes will suffice !
on a more serious note, and I posted on this and in one of my system photos is a RTA shot of scaling acoustic bass - tons of harmonics ( and low and behold w upper harmonics.... stereo and ambient information ) lots of energy left at 250 HZ....
yes the fundamental might be mono, but...,, |

Jim, You’re losing me with all the tech talk. I’m very old school, everything by listening.
When I read about things that make sense to me,....I'm willing to try. Not scientific at all but so far in this hobby I've a descent track record and feel I've spent money wisely. |
"You Don't Own Me Anymore".
I got caught up on The Secret Sisters late this year. As much as I love "Saturn Return", I highly recommend this lp! |

Robin Trower "Long Misty Days"

Thanks James, I did indeed, and hope you did the same.
The Solti-Edition by DECCA are really nice collections. I only have two of the volumes so far, but the others are on my radar. I’m a bit of a bargain hunter for those box sets, and at times, one may be available for well under what they typically sell for on Discogs. So, I try to be patient. |
