Whats playing on your system today?


Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.

I listened to Trower songs:
Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....

Then I pulled out "Gamma". 
I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....

Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?

I actually was planning on cleaning his last effort and forgot it. Thanks for the reminder!

@nutty,

It's very hard to deny Bruce's passion on this lp!!!

Chicago’s Transit Authority just happens to be one of my ALL TIME favorite lps!!!

Slaw
right now..

Pearl Jam "Sheep Cover"

something good and interesting soon...

I got it!!!

Black Mountain "In The Future"! What a great lp!

While that lp/s are cleaning, I'm listening to Bruce "Darkness on the Edge of Town" , just cleaned and...a WLP!  how cool is that!
@dhpeck,

Thanks for your post! It reminded me that I wanted to play/clean my DCC Van Halen "S/T" this weekend.

Much still to do.

Slaw
WOW!

Up next, Leonard Cohen "You Want it Darker".


..all the while. Jamie's cryin'.......
Leonard's voice is such a wonder!. What a moving instrument...right now..in my room!!!
Lyle Lovett "Pontiac" (lp)

@bdp24

I know we share a love for Lucinda... ever heard Robyn Ludwick? Check out  "Out of These Blues"..I think you'll enjoy her voice and songs here.
I have WWT on vinyl (promo)....it was actually the first Lucinda lp I ever bought. It is a fine sounding record!

Glad to hear This Sweet Old World may be more towards the artist's liking. I may have to order it now.
@bdp24
 
I failed to mention Lucinda's "Live @ Filmore" lp. It is one to own. One of the best live lps I own.
@reubent ,

It hadn't crossed my mind until you mentioned it. If I bought the media, it would be on vinyl. Don't know how much the originals are going for these days?
@reubent ,

I saw your assessment on another thread of This Sweet Old World. I had already ordered it so I hope I'll like it better than you. I've never heard SOW so, I may have another take on it.....I can only hope. At the least, it will help me become closer to a completest with Lucinda's lps.
@uberwaltz,

I have the UK/lp. Another one I need to clean again on my latest set-up.

Enjoy!
@ghosthouse ,

I finally checked out the J Satriani song you recommended. I loved it! Thanks, I’ve had a lot of experimenting going on here...sorry for the delay.


@uberwaltz,

I just finished listening to "Radio Kaos" after a fresh clean with my latest US method. What a difference! A relaxed presentation..along with a bigger soundscape, much more enjoyable! I remember thinking the last time I listened, it seemed somewhat bright and not nearly as immersive as it is now.
@uberwaltz,

Interesting how these recommendations/mentions work...your mention of DS, reminded me of "On Every Street". I wanted to clean and compare my copies. I have the UK, the one from the box set and the one from the Back To Black series. Wooo! I'm going to have fun!
@rbstehno ,

Welcome! I own Usher speakers. Have a pair of BE-718s and Mini-One Diamonds aka: Tiny Dancer.

@mapman ,

I’ve (finally) got the Johnny Cash "America Recordings" box in route as I write this. I bought one of these lps when it was first released. Thought it was about time I sprung for this great release from his final years! 3 cheers for Rick Ruben!
Been re-listening to several lps I’ve had on recently because of my recent US cleaning change.

Now... Allman Brothers "Eat A Peach" Abbey Road/1/2 speed....

The musical equivalent to "comfort food".
@uberwaltz,

I gotta ask...why change speakers when the room may have been THE issue... if indeed that’s how it all went down???


My Ushers still flip my trigger!!

..the following comments are meant to be funny...

@nutty,

I’ve had this lp in my mind for several months. I thought about you for some reason when I was cleaning it today. While NOT an audiophile lp, it is one great rockin’ lp. My personal favorite!

Def Leppard "High ’n’ Dry" .   Especially.."Switch".

Enjoy!!


The Church "Sometime, Anywhere". (lp) original pressing

In the US cleaner..."Starfish".
Phish "The Story of the Ghost"
Colour Haze "S/T"
Hex "S/T"
Tom Petty "Hard Promises" MCA/Masterphile

If any of you are looking for something unusual to listen to, check this one out. I’ve always loved it. ..a collaboration between Steve Kilbey and Donnette Thayer. I feel lucky to own it on vinyl. Highly recommended!

@nutty,

Regarding Manfred Mann...are you as big a fan of "The Roaring Silence" as I am? This was the first record I ever heard through headphones in my teens. I was blown away! I now own 4 copies..for some reason?
The recommended lp I am referring to is the Hex lp above...(2nd paragraph) sorry for the confusion.

Watched ACL this morning...featuring Dan Auerbach. I've had his latest lp in my cart for a while. I pulled the trigger after seeing the live performance. That's the way I roll.....
Putting on the Hex lp now. If I could have the power to grant one wish right now...it would be to have each of you this record to play in your system.
OK..I'm listening to the newly cleaned Colour Haze "S/T" lp.

I bought all of their lps a few years ago and was then, unimpressed with the sonics. Seemed dark and uninvolving.

Now, after the recent change in my US cleaning system, totally different lp.It is now up there with the normal level of output I'd expect from any artist.

Sometimes...US cleaning works wonders when other methods lack their advertised/long historied /somewhat untruthful outcome.

Did I just say that?
@jond ,

No, I’ve never made any attempt to research it. Why? I guess because I was so enthralled with my lp,..I never thought about this forum to reveal it?

My feeling would be to go on google and (hit) Steven Kilbey (Church) or Donnette Thayer,(Game Theory), maybe (wiki?) I think you could locate with not much effort.

When you find it, you’ll (find) your reward...

My feeling is..this was a one time collaboration, which may make it easier to research?

Cheers!
@jond ,

Music is so genre bending these days...

The name will throw you! Don’t let it! Just seek it out...you'll be glad you did....


Forget every other song you wanted to hear,,,,

Allison Moyet "Where Hides Sleep"...

Check this one out soon!
@reubent,

Hi. I love Concrete Blonde!....I'm looking at my "S/T" CB / lp right now.

Not one bad song on the entire lp. That's an accomplishment in it's own right?

In fact, I thought I was through listening today, until writing this response...

For some reason, I have "Bloodletting" on CD. You should get their "S/T" on any media you prefer..

Have a great day!

.
Just noticed if you type in Hex Steve Kilby on youtube, you can listen....
Both sides of lp 3 of the Excellent ..Lucinda Williams "Live @ the Fillmore" (lp)
