P.S. - In case anyone is interested, Zappa's - Joe's Garage is a DDA recording that has excellent SQ. |
Harry Chapin - Heads & Tales |
My original copy of Joe's Garage is a bit on the bright side. Still, a great album and I certainly enjoy it. But maybe the DDA recording process is the reason is seems to be rather bright. |

tidiane thiam "siftorde". dreamlike acoustic guitar from northern senegal, recorded outdoors. very beautiful record, can't recommend it enough
|
Robin Petrie & Danny Carnahan – Continental Drift (Flying Fish 1987)
Guitar, mandolin, violin, and dulcimer. Super recording with lots of warmth and harmonics. System sounds real good tonight. |
The "Flying Fish" label released some beauties' back in the day!
Larkin Grimm / Parplar |
Roosevelt Sykes – Roosevelt Sykes Is Blue And Ribald, A "Dirty Mother" For You (Southland 1972)
This guy is something. Hobo played turpentine and levee camps with bawdy ballads. |
Yes. I have a few gems on Flying Fish.

Mel Torme George Shearing-An Evening At Charlie’s SQ 4.3
Lighthouse/ST Side 2 SQ 4.3
FYI-SQ on Mel Torme and Joan Baez was disappointing considering Concord Jazz and Vanguard labels. I was generous with(all) my ratings since i had my power amp in the conditioner due to poor wall power today. Lighthouse ST might interest some BS&T meet The Doors. |
I have the Lighthouse album too @dayglow and enjoy it. I like a lot of bands like that from that era. |

+1 spiritofradio SQ is above average(somewhat aggressive) but it could be system or power issues. Great album jacket! |

+2 spritofradio. Yes I do need Looking Glass /ST album added in my collection. Elliot Lurie also released a solo album with a great song "Rainbow Girl". Not sure how strong the whole album is. |

A gem from Manos Hadjidakis - Gioconda’s smile (EMI), reissue, remasterd, Greece 2004.
Highly recomended, i do not know how the early pressings sound as there are US and Greek versions only.

You"ll love that box set Jim. |
First group of rescued (flattened with the Orb) records from the shed.
Traffic “John Barleycorn Must Die” United Artists second US pressing 1972
Andy Summers & Robert Fripp “I Advance Masked” A&M 1982
Robert Wyatt “The End Of An Ear” CBS-UK 1971
I’m still baking and will post some more about the Orb soon. So far, it well exceeds what I thought was possible to rescue my warped records. |
@slaw That’s a significant set of records to add to your most excellent collection. I’m interested in that label’s re-issues of The Meters’ albums. Wondering if you’ve heard them.
What a great story- that label. An awful lot of commitment and love for records. |
@tomic601 , @slaw not to make you friends envious or anything, but when I read Steve’s review of the DBT/JI concert set the other night, I only had to exert just enough energy to get over about a mile to my LRS that same evening. I am so dang lucky to have one of the best record stores anywhere this close to my house. Hope we can compare impressions on that box set soon. |
James…. I better get busy warming up the phono… only 72 out but headed to 100 for the weekend… I got 15 tubes to dissipate, not counting the DAC….
may have to rename the system “ orb “ |
James Gang - Thirds. 1971 pressing on ABC Records. Great three piece band and great Joe Walsh guitar. |
