ah yes somebody selling something you don’t yet have….i got my Two Against Nature LP from a Discogs vendor named “ Giant Leech “…. for 2X RSD in store price…. above that, i don’t wanna play and ( for me ) having that particular disc bordered on obsession… |
since i spend time in recording studios, mastering, mobile recording….and i work with a great mentor and engineer…i am acutely aware of intentional distortion and downstream effects….great care need be taken in the SS ( if any ) parts of the chain…. Our belief is upper harmonics and IM, TIM are at work mucking things up…..
I will listen to album you guys are citing and see, but its likely not the microphone itself, that overdrive and breakup is not clean, the mic amp likely…..fun… |
i was lucky, never had a Vinyl destroyer in family…Dad had Dual w Shure Type II, my first system at 17 was $75 ( gulp Grado Black ), Denon DP-790 W table, Onkyo A-5 Integrated ( Class A to 5 w )…and Infinity Qb…it was completely bad A…
Lucky bastard, I know… |

Who is going to the local record store for RSD today? What are you after? I thought about going early to mine, but decided it's not worth the trouble. There aren't any "must have" titles for me this time and when they published the list of what they have, only about half of the things I had mild interest in were listed. I will try to stop by later and see what's left and scour discogs for the remainder of my wants. What are your "must have" titles? |
I felt the same way Greg, however I did order a Barnes & Noble exclusive of Grateful Dead "Skull & Roses" on orange translucent vinyl. |
Ozark Mountain Daredevils "S/T"

Nice Steve! I'd like to get the Amy Winehouse remixes and I like Fun Lovin' Criminals Scooby Snacks. Hopefully I can find those on Discogs, but if not, no big deal. |
Remember this link I posted after last RSD where you can buy RSD titles after the day. www.roughtrade.com |
I’m in line (since 6 when it was only 5 blocks at Millennium) probably about half an hour yet until I can get in. There are 4-5 I’d really like, a handful of others of minor interest. Greg, if you like I can pick up those two for you and ship them.

Sarah Jarozs "Blue Heron Suite" |
Good luck James. Kind of glad I'm at home listening. |
James - what a prince you are ;-))) best thread on Audiogon. i am thinking RSD shuffle would not help my foot, so I shall also pass.
Trigger Hippy arrived in the mail……
|
Greg, got those two for you. Send me a PM if you want. |
Thanks for the offer James, I will stop by my local record store today and see if they have them. I can live without them and don't want you to go to any extra trouble. |
Greg, got those two for you. Send me a PM if you want. |

Got just about everything on my list. Highlights for me are the Bill Evans, The Charles Lloyd, and the Roy Hargrove/Mulgrew Miller.
The War box set was sold out already as I suspected it would be.
Millennium is a great store. |

Very nice sounding record so far. Good sense of the stage, clear, and clean. A nice dark recording - just how I like ‘em.
Cool when you can distinguish individual hand claps in the audience applause on a live record. |
I agree, on great live recordings you feel one with the audience. |
|
Listening to my neglected CD’s today, but, for Record Store Day, just ordered Tom Petty’s Wildflowers & All The Rest.
Looking forward to that. First Tom Petty on vinyl. |
At my music friend's house listening to the latest Bob Seger "Live Bullet" mastered by CB. Yeah!
Installed his upgraded amp for the JL sub, repositioned the speakers and put my loaner BDR Shelf For the Source under his Music Hall 11.3.

+1 slaw Ozark Mountain Daredevils/ST is a must in any 1970's "Classic Rock" collection. |
@slaw
Fingured I could not go wrong with Wildflowers Steve. I have the CD, and it is a great album. I believe the first after his association, production, and influence of Lynne on the couple before. I love Jeff Lynne, and like those Petty albums as well, but without his influence, the real Tom Petty emerges.
IMO |
