NIN w/ David Bowie "Back In Anger" Vol 2. (lp)
I have both volumes but #2 is the Star!
ghosthouse,
Listened to my Universal (lp) pressing from maybe 10 years ago? Sounds fantastic! |
Rush "La Villa Strangiato" !!!
|
listen to "The Last Time"...That's what I'm talking about!
|
I have the Them lp on mono. Nice! |
Betty LaVette "The Scene of the Crime" (lp) |
Listened to "Watch" last weekend.
Nutty,
"The Speed of Sound".. that's the one I wanted to listen to this weekend. Thanks for the reminder!
Happy Listening! |
|
Temple of the Dog "S/T" (lp)
|
My friends, the stars will just not shine upon you unless you listen to Audioslave "S/T" next..
Cheers!
|
nutty,
"The Last Time" I listen to is off Bettye Lavette "The Scene of the Crime" (lp).
Patterson Hood producing and playing along. A great sounding lp!
phototdusty,
I own the Divine Fits lp. I've always liked it. I think I saw recently that Spoon has a new record out? I'm a Andrew Bird fan too.
|
photodusty,
Here's one that may be under the radar.. My Jerusalem "Preachers". It's a collaborative effort by several artists, one of whom is Jim Eno of Spoon. It may be scarce on vinyl but worth looking for. I find it to be a little known treasure!
|
"The Last Time"
I failed to mention..it was written by the great John Hiatt!
|
Pink Floyd "Animals".
from "Pigs",
You're trying to keep our feelings off the street
You're nearly a real treat,
All tight lips and cold feet,
And do you feel abused?
(a cue from reubent)
|
photodusty,
The main artist on the My Jerusalem is Jeff Klein. He is a mainstay from The Twilight Singers and so on.
The Twilight Singers lp "Dynamite Steps" may take you to places you will want to go.
They do a great version of "When Doves Cry". Check out Youtube!
Cheers!
|
putting on Joan Osborne "Relish"..finally on vinyl
|
Today, so far...(lps)
Love "Forever Changes"
Hiss Golden Messenger "Haw"
Paul McCartney "Ameoba's Secret" (from 2007, already been 10 years)
Eels "Beautiful Freak"
|
arcam88,
No Smoke Without Fire... and I thought I was the only one.
|
arcam88,
I own "Just Testing" among others. No "Live Dates". Thanks for the recommendation.
|
Angus & Julia Stone "Down The Way" (lp)
|
nutty,
I need to pull out my Triumph lps. Haven't listened in over 30 years.
|
reubent,
A little late posting this. Blood Sweat & Tears "S/T" is one of my all time favorite lps! Some have said it may be one of the best sounding or best recorded rock lps of all time? These things are subjective as you know. Since I've always thought so highly of it, I took the plunge last year and purchased the ORG version. Wow! This is what I'm talking about! The bass that you really did not miss before is now there. If you're so inclined, you need to own this version.
Cheers!
|
up until this ORG/45rpm pressing, I had always read the original MFSL was THE best. While I've never heard it and it's price is way out there, I could not imagine doing better for the money than the ORG.
|
nutty,
Remember Meatloaf, him getting oxygen... his act? Maybe. not an act?
Cheers!
|
that "full sound" gets WAY fuller!
|
photodusty,
Ryan Adams has always been one I bought, no questions asked. Since his divorce, I'm wondering..... How do you rate it among his last two? I'm getting ready for a major lp purchase. Your input would be appreciated.
|
I noticed it's on Blue Note, not his Pax-Am label.
Questions???
|
Beth Orton "Daybreaker".
Any fans need to check this one out on vinyl.
|
so far today,
Crazy Horse "S/T", Rhino/Chris Bellman
k.d. lang "Shadowland, one of the great voices/excellent SQ
The New Riders of the Purple Sage "The Adventures of Panama Red"
|
Thanks to arcam88 as well. I've got a EU copy of Wishbone Ash "Live Dates Vol.2" on it's way.
|
photodusty,
Thanks for the comments. I've added it to my cart.
|
I listened to Ryan Adams "Heartbreaker" the other week. Mine is the Cooking Vinyl/EU release. Still sounds fantastic!
Upon my memory, I always enjoyed "Follow The Lights" as exceptional SQ and content. I'll put it on again this weekend.
|
Robyn Ludwick "Out Of These Blues"
Neil Young "International Harvester"
Thin Lizzy "Johnny The Fox"
|
Since late last evening:
Neil Young "Harvest Moon"
Beth Hart "Better Than Home"
Janis Joplin "Pearl"
Talking Head "Speaking In Tongues"
Jeff Buckley "Grace"
Duran Duran "Rio"
my guilty pleasure.. Sniff 'n' the Tears "Fickle Heart"
|
Big Star "Nothing Can Hurt Me / Original Soundtrack"
|
reubent,
I tip my hat to you sir... finding a clean/nice copy of that (lp) is a major triumph!...maybe I'll get one of mine out today. hum???
|
..and speaking of Triumph...
nutty,
I just cleaned my lp copy of "Allied Forces", will put it on today.
Happy listening.
|
Cueing up The National "Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers"! (lp)
Have a great on all..........
|
nutty,
I put on the Thiumph lp, half way through the first song... I felt I was listening to rock only for rock's sake. Not good!
I put on Montrose "Jump On It".
What a difference an lp makes!
I remember thinking 3 decades ago, how I thought that this lp was sort of "out there".
I was wrong. DAMN GOOD!
Happy listening.
|
arcam88,
Just listened to Wishbone Ash "Live Dates/Vol II". I could not be more pleased! Not only with the music but the SQ and the set list.
|
The Ides of March "Vehicle". I cannot recommend this lp highly enough! If you like Chicago or Blood Sweat & Tears, and on one song, "Factory Band" there's even a John Fogerty vibe..... you need to search this one out. Jim Peterik has one of the great rock voices! A great cover of "Wooden Ships" as well. It would make a great record show find. Actually, that's where I found my copy over 20 years ago.
|
so far today:
Wishbone Ash "Live Dates/Vol II"
Hole "Live Through This"
The Ides of March "Vehicle"
Iron Butterfly "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida"
Dixie Chicks "Home"
Lucinda Williams "The Ghosts of Highway 20"
Ryan Adams "Ashes and Fire"
just to remark on three others, that stood out:
"Home"... I wanted to choose just one song from this lp that I could post on "Tune of the Day" and decided that they all were just too good to choose (one). The SQ is awesome. Songwriting is superb! Get it/listen to it!
"The Ghosts of Highway 20"... I've listened to this one about 5 times now. Not sure of the exact timeline... her father passed away between this lp and her last. Lucinda takes us through that process and comes out for the better. I cannot think of any other American artist who paints such a personal picture through her song better than Lucinda. Continues to just get better!
"Ashes & Fire"... This is the lp I would imagine Ryan would give us after his divorce. Such a beautiful, soulful record. The sonics are superb albeit, it seems to be recorded too hot for such an introspective outing. What a record!
I'm having a ball!
|
J Geils Band "Love Stinks" / Nautilus
|
There have been several mentions of Sting lately. One that's overlooked is "Mercury Falling". I played it a couple of months ago, mine is the Universal re-issue (lp) from 10 years ago? Sounds great.
|
nutty,
Just posted it on Tune of the Day.
|
nutty, reubent,
I have a single sided 10" vinyl of Trixie Whitley "I'd Rather Go Blind".
I hear why reubent made the connection between the two singers.
|
Love Alvin Lee! (Soulmate was awesome! Now..can I find vinyl?....)
|
( I've mentioned this one before, just happened to think about it..."Cortez The Killer" from Built To Spill "Live".
Maybe THE best version ever?
|
For anyone who 's looking for something different...
The Court & Spark "Your Mother Was The Lightning".
This band has become what is now Hiss Golden Messenger.
|
Here's one that's, sadly not on vinyl...
Fountains Of Wayne Welcome Interstate Managers". Remember "Stacy's Mom"?
This band has it all! Skillful pop, top 40, to rock and heavier rock.. They are supremely skillful at their songwriting craft and adding to that, the perfect amount of what ever else is needed to make an extremely enjoyable listening experience.
I just listened to "Utopia Parkway" on vinyl. Highly recommended!!
|
I guess, I'm un-officially the "weekend man"... A role I'll gladly accept!
For some reason, I felt the need to play some Pat Travers Band. Unfortunately, I've misfiled the lp I wanted to listen to.. "Crash & Burn". Hopefully I'll locate it.
Meanwhile, I'll listen to Lenny Kravitz "Let Love Rule". BTW, I found this amazing lp at a church book sale for a buck. Hallaluiah!!
