My task today is queue up 16 discs to send to Perfect Vinyl Forever |
@tomic601.. I hadn't heard of Perfect Vinyl Forever. Interesting! |

Just arrived today….
Lush - Ciao! Best Of Lush. 4AD 2LP gatefold 2015 UK release
Been eyeing Lush’s early LP’s, (which I only have on cassette), but they are incredibly expensive, and then saw this ‘best of’ release for a very reasonable amount, and jumped on it. |
Wishbone Ash - Argus
MCA 1972

Eels - Beautiful Freak. DreamWorks Records reissue 2015, originally 1996 |
Aretha-Spirit in the Dark 1970 Atlantic
I was fortunate enough to meet Warren when he came to town in 1991. I was working at a local radio station and was to interview him on air. When he came into the studio there I was with my head phones on, completely speechless and locked up. We didn’t do an interview on air.
Just got a batch of OG Blue Note, Verve, and Prestige back from Perfect Vinyl Forever. This was my 2nd batch of 16 I’ve sent him. A+ |
Hemming / ST
Jim, I suspect you would like this |
Tim - I will check them out for sure ! |
Al Stewart - The Bedsitter Images |
Laura Marling / Once I was an eagle |
Hemming - S/T
i like her voice, but the clipped vocal mic is driving me nuts…i know it’s intentional / producer. but the board surfer in me has me jerking ti reach the slider….Track 2 is better….
Now, i am not so sure, is the vinyl vocal clipped on track 2 peaks also - thinking it’s the streamed file upload…
|
Badfinger - Day After Day:Live |
Hey Jim,
LOL, there is that. I agree that it isn’t a great recording (not terrible either), but I still enjoy it. Probably worse streamed than pressed. I really enjoy their musical style nonetheless. If you haven’t streamed Laura Marling yet, check that one listed above out. It is recorded very well. Also a great musician IMHO. |
i enjoyed it overall Tim !!!! |

Just arrived, and had to take a break to clean and play it. In really pretty nice shape, so I'm pleased for the cost of this.

Fantastic to hear again, and sounds better than I've ever heard before. |
@bkeske Fantastic to hear again, and sounds better than I've ever heard before.
I love it when that happens. You have a great stereo. |
Anyone have experience with ordering records from Hong Kong? |
Lunchtime listening - Son Volt - "Straightaways" |
Hey Jim! Thanks. I had never heard the film version of "Stones" before. Wow! Fantastic! And I was just thinking last night that I need to see the movie. That was just reinforced... FYI for anyone interested: Bruce Springsteen (and Patty) - "Stones" from the film - Western Stars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2pCkdBa4ZU |
You are welcome Tom.

Red House Painters - "Songs For a Blue Guitar" |
Live music last night - Pat Metheny, five rows back, center stage, first date of his tour. He was in fine form and put on a great show. His drummer in particular was outstanding. |
I broke down and ordered the stereo version of Simon & Garfunkel's Parsley Sage Rosemary and Thyme on Columbia Legacy after waiting over a year for a reissue of the mono version. The SQ is ok but I find the mono production to be far superior.
Another thing I noticed when comparing the new copy to my original mono pressing from 1966 is that the dead wax on the new reissue is twice as wide as my original copy which can only mean the grooves were compressed and narrower. Due to the digital process?
I have to say that 7 O'Clock News/Silent Night is still as chilling to listen to as the first time I heard it!

Has anyone bought and heard the new Renaissance Records reissue of the debut album of Pentangle? I’m having no luck finding a clean original. |
CSN&Y Deja Vu. I hadn't listened to this one in a long time, well before the amp and speaker upgrade. I still had a memory of how it sounded so when I heard it, it was like I was listening to someone else's system! Very pleasantly surprised! Great soundstage and dynamics. I've got a new rock reference album again! |
