Dylan's Time Out of Mind remix is Stunning I love Spector’s early-mid 60’s productions, of Pop singers (all his girl groups, The Righteous Brothers, Ike & Tina Turner, etc.). But not his Beatles, George Harrison, Leonard Cohen, Ramones, or Robbie Robertson (that album just oozes preten... | |
Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? @edcyn: No problem, I was in Music Millennium again today (oh no, I'm going to record stores every day now ;-) and bought the disc. But it's a CD, not an LP (like I said, the album is getting hard to find on LP. If they had the LP I'm sure it woul... | |
What's the best EL84 amp? Music Reference RM-10 Mk.2. | |
Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? I last saw Dylan live in 2001, and he was fantastic, far better than he been when I saw him 10 years earlier. But then he was playing better music, and had a far, far better band. Of course, that was 22 years ago now. But he still has great materi... | |
Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? Time will tell. But even if LP's return to a niche product level (even more so than some think they already are), so what? As long as they are available, those who want them will be able to get them. And there will ALWAYS be millions of used LP's,... | |
Keeping Track of Vinyl Playback Time @rdk777: Fremer reviewed a cheap little accessory that is a timer for stylus'. Look for it in the Stereophile Analog Planet archives. | |
Dylan's Time Out of Mind remix is Stunning @stuartk: My Copy arrives later this week! I can't wait to hear "Not Dark Yet", one of my favorite songs. It was Lanois' sound on this album (terrible) that inspired Dylan to start doing his own producing, an excellent decision. | |
Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? @edcyn, at the risk of further inflaming the ire of fsonicsmith1 and wturkey, I have good news for you: Music Millennium has a copy of The Mountain (the title of the utter disaster that is the Steve Earle/Del McCoury Band album). It's a used copy,... | |
Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? @edcyn: Yeah, The Mountain LP is getting hard to find. The album was released on both CD and LP in 1999 on E-Squared Records (the label started by Earle and music businessman Jack Emerson)---I have both, and reissued on CD and LP in 2017 on Warner... | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @bslon: You mean you're suppose to listen to LP's? ;-) But seriously, with my LP buying behavior of the past coupla years (I'm guesstimating 500 LP's acquired in 2021-2) I've been putting myself in the situation I created with CD's in the 90's: I... | |
What amps are out there that are Class A, 50 wpc into 8 ohms? Atma-Sphere M-60. | |
Did vinyl sales just hit the proverbial brick wall? There is a lot of over-generalization in the article, not to mention outright misinformation (the writer is obviously unaware of Chad Kassem and his trio of LP businesses, as well as those of Speakers Corner, Blue Note, Intervention, VMP, dozens o... | |
Speakers for Atma Sphere M60 mk3 If you like the Maggie sound (planar-magnetic drivers), but know that their 4 ohm-and-below impedance characteristic and very low sensitivity rules out the mighty-fine M60, there is an alternative: the Eminent Technolgy LFT-8b. 8 ohms full range, ... | |
The Aaron Copland / Bob Dylan connection @jafant: I finally made up my mind on Bootleg Volume 17, and went with the 4 LP iteration. The 5 CD set includes a lot more material, but mostly live shows, with which I’m not particularly interested. Some of the live recordings are from Dylan’s ... | |
New In 2023 Lyle Lovett's Joshua Judges Ruth on LP, street date tomorrow (February 10th). |
