@boxer12 Hi Tim, I happened to pull the gray top border jacket “Lonesome”. “Truckers Atlas” is on the blue top border jacket. Did your version come as 2 records in 2 separate jackets (vs. a gatefold)? Strange…but great selection of Modest Mouse.
Hey Steve! I bet you do know the fellow! He recommended the JT album when he, tomic601, and myself went to Stereo Unlimited in San Diego for the Vandersteen event with Richard Vandersteen. We had a blast!!! :-)
As am I Brian. It turns out the seller used it with a Hagerman Trumpet, and said the increase in SQ was very apparent and made it ‘reference quality’ (his words). A great deal for that amount. Have been eyeing them on Upscale for quite a while.
@bkeske looking forward to hear how your forthcoming LPS sounds
Grateful Dead - American Beauty. Not sure about the provenance of this one. It's in a plain white sleeve with a MFSL number and stamped "sample not for sale". The vinyl has a plain label stamped with JVC. A promo? Test pressing? It sounds fantastic!
The Moving Pictures 40th box set arrived yesterday, but I’ve got the KD-650 all dismantled awaiting the Audiomods arm that is coming this week, so I guess it will have to wait.
@boxer12I have the 45 RPM MFSL of American Beauty. I haven't listened for a while to say how it compares to the one I picked up. I am pretty sure it's a test pressing. I found one that looks similar for Aja.
@waltersalas@slaw@tomic601@bslonet. al. Streamed “Inperial” this morning. Like Ramond Carver or Richard Ford short stories set to Cowboy Junkies music. Very cool. Great to learn about another atmospheric band from my hometown. Thanks.
@tomic601@geof3et. al. My Moving Pictures 40th records showed up back at the house while we’ve been away for the weekend at in-laws in Bend. I have a date with them tonight.
That is about the finest description of a band that I've ever read on this site. I do not doubt at all that Willy Vlautin was influenced by both Ford and Carver, which makes me look forward even more to reading his books in a couple of months when my workload lightens. Thanks for that, and glad you are enjoying the Delines! I think I'll go put them on right now.
@slaw I keep a list going on my phone of all my record orders. I’ve had to copy and move that one up the list several times so as not to forget it. Really looking forward to having my own copy of Shangra-La ( and the rest, only a couple of repeats) hope it’s a good pressing.
So my wife and I took a little vacation last week and happened to have time to stop into The Inn Groove in Phoenix. Suffice it to say I paid Mike’s utilities for the month. My purchases were too much to put in luggage and they showed up today in a Home Depot box!
I took the mono cart off the back up table today and put a VM740ML on it. I’m not even sure where to start.
