Paolo Nutini - "Last Night in the Bittersweet"
Just arrived today from the UK after being ordered nearly a month ago.
|
Last Night:
Loreena McKennitt - An Ancient Muse
The Perth County Conspiracy - Does Not Exist
Laurie Anderson- Home of the Brave
Loreena McKennitt - Troubadours on the Rhine
Aphrodite’s Child - 666
Dead Can Dance - Spirit Chaser
|
Moby - S/T. I'm questioning why I bought this. The sound quality is pretty good but it's very generic electronic music.
|
Hey Steve, Jerry put out some great music. Glad you enjoyed it.
|
Rolling Stones- Exile on Main Street
John Coltrane- Giant steps
|
Garbage - S/T. One of my favorite albums. This is the first time I've heard it on vinyl. This is a 45 RPM two disc copy and sounds great so far.
|
|
@noromance how's the SQ on First Aid Kit – The Big Black & The Blue (Wichita 2010), think it's worthwhile over the digital?
|
Chopin and more Chopin today...
|

|
Just arrived. It's a good one, AAA cut by Ryan K. Smith @ Sterling.
An easy to love, adopted hometown hero. Probably the next statue downtown after Stevie Ray & Willie.
|
Steely Dan - Everything Must Go. AP, 45 RPM. Holy smokes, this is great!
|
That is some serious Chopin @sbanks !
|
Thanks, @big_greg for the PlaidRoomRecords recommendation. My copy of this was defective and they replaced in like 4 days including shipping. Fantastic unusual album!
|
Good to hear Spencer! I don't think I've purchased anything defective from them. It's good to hear that they have good customer service when needed.

It’s Australian bands playing tonight, great music, fun stuff!
|
|
@bslon Bill, Kasey Chambers would fit nicely, but I haven't seen any of hers on vinyl. No Courtney Barnett?
|
@sbank Hi Spencer, there’s so many more that I couldn’t get to. The Church was next in the queue but I was nodding off. I don’ t have KC or CB on vinyl.
|
@sbank and @bslon: The two Kasey Chambers/Shane Nicholson albums are available on LP, on Sugar Hill Records. Good music.
|
Thanks @bdp24, also a couple LPs at kaseychambers.com
FWIW, it’s Divinyls—no “The”. Spellcheck or late night fog? 🤔

Václav Neumann conducts Martinů - Symphonies No. 3, No. 4, and No. 5. The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. Supraphon 2LP gatefold 1982. Czechoslovakian release.
|
A couple of classic jazz records.
Mingus - Ah Um Music On Vinyl issue, and it is quite good. Very quiet vinyl.
Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue AP/QRP UHQR 33rpm. AP really did an outstanding job with reinvigorating the UHQR process. Pricey, but I hope they do a few more. This copy is #1,177 and I believe they make 1,000 copies per stamper. Thus, 177th copy from stamper #2. My only other UHQR is from the original introduction in the early 1980s which was Mobile Fidelity and JVC (JVC had the vinyl formula and pressing process that was the UHQR technology). I have a pristine copy of 'I Robot' that I bought when it first released. I wish that I had bought more of those UHQRs. I believe they made only 8 titles, and that was it.
|
My mistake, I also have a UHQR of Jimi Hendrix, Are You Experienced. I hope that AP does some more UHQR issues.
|

Kenny Burrell with Coleman Hawkins - Bluesey Burrell I have played this a few times as of late. It's really a great album.
Steely Dan - Two Against Nature Got this last week, second time playing it. AP/QRP new issue. Makes the most out of your analog front end. And excellent Dan music, too.
Iron Butterfly - In-A-Gadda Da-Vida Got this last year, the MoFi reissue. Lots of fun. Brings back memories from 8th grade. I saw these guys during my high school years, and really close to the stage. Good memories.
|
King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King. 50th Anniversary Steven Wilson remaster.
|
Dire Straits Brothers in Arms. Excellent recording as well as great music. The vinyl far exceeds my Apple lossless digital even with an Ortofon red.
|
Paolo Nutini - "Last Night in the Bittersweet" again...
To anyone who says there is no good music being produced today, I say "you are sadly mistaken"...
|
@scottiet
I couldn't agree more with you. Great report!
|
@scottiet - Welcome to AudiogoN and to the best, and most popular thread on AudiogoN. Keep 'em coming....
