Tower Of Power-Tower Of Power 1973 WB
Initially started the evening with Zep In Through the Out Door from the box set, made it less than 8 minutes. I try to listen to LZ vinyl occasionally but find I just don’t enjoy it any more. Probably the worst sounding vinyl I own-and I own a fair amount of Zep. Never heard a Classic Records Quiex Zeppelin, would like to someday.

Yes, Led Zep was the SQ chump tonight. Ms. Wilson takes the SQ crown tonight despite a minor digital edge. For all the jokes "Feelings" has endured for 45+ years it's not a bad song or album. Is it great? No, but many people even some audiophiles praise lesser music.

@reubent Tom, I wasn't aware that you are a skier. Right on, dude! I have been skiing for 49 years and have only missed 2 seasons (due to injury and my mother's dying process). Welcome back, glad you are safe and spinning some vinyl. Another great pleasure in life.
|
Joel, my skiing history is just a couple of years short of yours, although I don't ski as many days annually as you. My son has grown up taking a ski trip to Utah or Colorado every years since age 4. He's 18 now and headed to Engineering School this August at Colorado School of Mines in Golden, CO. He's living my dream, and I'm happy for him. What an opportunity for a great education and an incredible life experience, about an hour from Summit County ski areas.

Dug this one out and dusted it off:
Vangelis - China = 中國 1979 French Polydor
|
|
|
Neil Young - On the Beach
|
Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland Reissue by the Jimi Hendrix Company. I need to clean my original and compare. Though they say on the album sticker that it was produced from the original master tapes, this reissue sure sounds digital to my ears.
Procol Harum - Home From 1970 so it was played on my parents Magnavox console, a few years before I got my first real high fidelity music system. A bit of vinyl noise (actually, quite a bit) but wonderful music. You can certainly hear Robin Trower on this one.
Jennifer Warnes - Another Time, Another Place Impex sure knows how to produce a quality piece of vinyl. Music is very good, but not her best.
