@mammothguy54, sorry to hear that about your sister Joel. That’s rough. I hope you can find a way and she will let you help. |
Jim, have Hoodoo on vinyl too. Another day.

Put the Luxman L-550A II back in its box until I can build a bedroom system around it and reconnected the 7 and 8b while cleaning the last of my meager record collection with my Degritter.
Such a very different presentation. Initially I was missing the Luxman, but they shine in their own
way.
The old Marantz gear now reminds me a bit of Dean Martin, it slurs a bit, but it sure can sing.
The Luxman has better diction.
Anyway…. While cleaning records, I put some aside that I’ve not listened to for a while.
Tonight’s varied list….
Jimmy Smith / Back At The Chicken Shack
The Beatles / Revolver
Pink Floyd / Dark Side Of The Moon
Pink Floyd / Wish You Were Here
Jackson Browne / Late For The Sky
on cd..
George Jones / 50 Years Of Hits

Thank you for kind words Joel
I wish the best for your sister. |
I like the description you made of your gear @sourpuss123. Very unique and effective. |
@spiritofradio,
I have the Dylan mono box. I love it. Comparing to some of my MFSL mono lps, they are more open and "modern’ sounding, where the mono box sounds more of the era. The vinyl and pressing quality is great. I recommend it. It’s really a great buy I think. |
Jimmy Smith - Chicken Shack
way to ease into a Monday….. |
Jimmy Smith - Midnight Special |
in arrears: Krall - Live in Paris
Eagles - Long Road out of Eden ( server )
The bass impact should set ya back on heels… |

Second spin for this…
Lush - Ciao! Best Of Lush. 4AD 2LP gatefold 2015 |
Just a quick check in with a little New Orleans flavor:
Jon Cleary Dyna-Mite
He recently performed at a small venue/bar not to far from here as the kickoff of his first tour in over 1 1/2 years. So much fun to attend with about 200 others.
FYI - Uber is doing fine. He was over Saturday listening to some tunes and checking out some recent changes. |
Mark Lanegan / Straight songs of sorrow |
@drrsutliff FYI - Uber is doing fine. He was over Saturday listening to some tunes and checking out some recent changes. Good to know, thanks. Tell Kevin we all miss him on this forum, especially. |

The good Doctor - appreciate the Uber update !
Don Henley - Cass County |
Do Make Say Think / Other truths |
CDs tonight so no posts apart from this on LP.
Martin Stephenson And The Daintees – Gladsome, Humour & Blue (Kitchenware 1988)
Bought when it was released. A collection of superb soft folk blues songs of outstanding originality. A masterpiece but for one thing—the recording is not the greatest on vinyl. |
Found a few good ones at an estate sale yesterday, including a sealed “walking two eye” 1968 Columbia Johnny Cash Live at Folsom Prison.
Something tells me Neil Young Live Rust 1979 Reprise is a good set to follow Johnny. |
|
Joni Mitchell - Blue. Reprise 1970’s reissue, originally 1971 |
@uberwaltz - Hey Kevin! If you're watching, We Miss You Brother! |
^^ Ditto That! ^^
Kiln / Twinewheel |
Beatles - Let It Be. Apple 🍏 1971 |
Arrived today (finally!), cleaned and spinning.
Neil Young / Tonight’s The Night
Thin Lizzy / Jailbreak
And…… texting with a sweetie from my high school days.
Ahhh… the power of music, lol |
Yes - "Going For the One" - Japan - Atlantic P-10304A |
45 RPM reissue of Norhing is Wrong by the band Dawes. Sounds surprisingly good considering how raw a recording it is.
|
@sourpuss divulge the habit early……. |
The Smiths: Louder Than Bombs
Just ordered:
The Smiths
Strangeways, Here We come
The Queen is Dead |
Lol, @tomic601, she’s a whole nuther habit unto herself. We’ve seen concerts in Seattle, DC, Atlanta, Phoenix, Balitimore and New Orleans together.
Anyway…. I digress.
Oh, and @slaw thanks for the kind words.
Thin Lizzy RAWKS!
Up next on cd
Robyn Hitchcock/ The Man Upstairs
carry on…. |

About my last pick - Yes - "Going For the One", I’ve always liked the music, especially "Parallels". But I’ve always felt the sound quality is a jumbled mess. Spent the big bucks ($50, what can I say, I'm frugal) for the Japanese pressing, hoping for the best SQ. It is only marginally better than my original US copy. |
Joni M - Blue Jim, I swear Joni was in my living room tonight while playing that. |
Brian - your play of it inspired me. With your new preamp, Joni may come forward and throw YOU the roses… ha |
Tom - I agree, typically my cutoff is $30 for a Japan press vs $20. domestic… Feat Sailing shoes an exception…. |
Rickie Lee Jones - It’s Like This
IMO worth it for the Steely Dan cover of Show Biz Kids….
|
The Minus 5 / Dungeon Golds
|
I love It's Like This Jim. The entire record is very good, but yeah, she kills it on Show Biz Kids. |
|
New arrival,
Squirrel Flower "Planet (i)"
Been looking forward to this one |
Greg - Thanks for the great period press of JD Souther - Black Rose. Good progress on foot with some miles to go - celebrated by playgrading some LP to send to Perfect Vinyl Forever. ( review forthcoming )
Valerie Carter - Wild Child ( domestic vs. Japan )
JD Souther - Black Rose ( PP vs Reissue )
back to server |
Exhausted after the 5th day of working over a warehouse and office building. Love the posts guys.
Thanks for the response on the Dylan box Steve. Sounds worthwhile.
Hey Kevin. |
Dead - American Beauty ( Anniversary remaster ) Some low end grunt…easy to FEEL the pocket….. |
