First Aid Kit – Who By Fire, Live Tribute To Leonard Cohen (Columbia 2021)

Not what I expected as it's live and the recording is just okay but the music and presentation is growing on me. 

That's a cool album jacket Bill! 

 

 

The Church "Gold Afternoon Fix" 

1990/Arista

 

@sbank Yes, sounds great on vinyl.

how's the SQ on First Aid Kit – The Big Black & The Blue (Wichita 2010), think it's worthwhile over the digital?

First of two that arrived today. Yea, this probably seems unusual for me, but had all their CD’s when they arrived on the scene. Listened to one a few days ago, and realized this was easily had on vinyl, so went for it. It definitely grooves….just like I remember.

Soul II Soul - Vol II (1990-A New Decade). Virgin 1990

2nd arrival. New copy off Discogs…

Richard Thompson - Live in Austin TX. New West Records 2LP gatefold 2012

Recorded 2001, Austin City Limits

Little Charlie And The Nightcats – Disturbing The Peace (Alligator 1988)

That's a cool album jacket Bill! 

Hey Steve, I agree! Another thing to love about the LP is all the cool cover art. It adds to the fun of playing them, imo.

Herbie Hancock - My Point of View - Tone Poet - outstanding! Best Tone Poet ever? 

Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters - AP 33rpm - phenomenal 

Excellent AAA cut by Chris Bellman from original master tapes. Maybe his best live LP, recorded live at The Record Plant

Workingman's Dead. Not that fake digital MFSL either, this is my beat up copy from 1973.

@big_greg i can drive down and pickup all the MoFi digital trash… at firesale pricing, of course… wink….

 

I'll get them all together for you Jim. Do you want those horrid 1 steps? 

My one step Kind of Blue has a freaking … POP…. i am so disappointed they weren’t able to “ fix “ that in the digital domain…..

Normally in the all analog remastering process, a lightning hand on the EQ…can take out those nasty ticks and pops…..

Small Faces "Ogdens' Nutgone Flakes" 

1985/Compleat Entertainment Corp.

 

@noromance ,

Brian, I heard one song off that lp on the radio, years ago. It has stayed in my mind. Need to get it.

The Incredible String Band – Liquid Acrobat As Regards The Air (Elektra 1972)
