And then... ELO  -  On The Third Day   Really a great album and very well mixed. ELP  -  Pictures At An Exhibition   MoFi Original Master Recording.  ELP was mentioned on this thread a few days ago.  I forgot that I have this copy.  This is the ...

@tgilb Jimi Hendrix  -  The Jimi Hendrix Experience   Today I played both of my copies, back to back (just for you).  The Hendrix Family reissue is very good, and certainly has plenty of bass.  However, compared to the UHQR issue, well there prac...

@roadwhorerecords   (love that moniker)  That is a very interesting comparison you are undertaking.  Please do post about your experience and perceived differences.  I have an original pressing of Unplugged and it's so good that I find no reason t...

That's a BS response from Friday Music.  I mean really, they won't disclose if the source they use to master the pressing is from the analog tape or a digital file?  I have a difficult time justifying buying from them again.  No wonder my copy fro... 
New here and saying HI!
You seem like a very nice person, straightforward and no BS.  As slaw mentioned, come on over to the thread "what's on your turntable tonight".  Really nice group of people, no politics or demeaning words toward one another.  Just a good group of ...

@reubent   Then you must love Brain Salad Surgery.  To me, that is their iconic album.  I was fortunate to see them perform it.  I believe that was 1973 or 74, at the Long Beach Arena.

Scheherazade  -  Reiner, Chicago Symphony   Just fantastic! John Coltrane  -  A Love Supreme   AP/QRP this album takes you on a ride. Eric Clapton  -  Unplugged   Such a well done performance and recording session.  It's like being on stage with...

Hey Steve, I also just received my copy of Groovin'.  I listened to it today and my conclusion is that it totally sucks, probably the worst $60 I have ever spent.  Thin, squelchy, and other than dead-center vocals, nothing good at all. Too bad, th...

Hey James, there was a reissue some years ago that had the swirl vinyl and was sourced from the analog tapes.  I understand those sounded great (note; I have an original, early pressing with the swirl vinyl, in NM condition...yeah baby!).  I have ...

I forgot... John Mayall  -  Empty Rooms   An early pressing.  A bit noisy vinyl but tolerable.  Awesome early Mayall album from 1970.  I just love John Mayall.

Beth Hart  -  Fire On The Floor    Awesome!!! The Police  -  Zenyatta Mondatta   Excellent Police album.  My copy is a bit shy on the low end frequencies.  It's a very early pressing copy.  Is that the way they wanted the sound, or is it maybe my...

I bought a good pile of used records recently.  These are a few of them that I played today. The Moody Blues  -  Seventh Sojourn   One of the better recorded albums from the Moody Blues.  And a great album of music, too. Al Di Meola  -  Splendid... 
Beware poor sounding media
The poor production albums are a disappointment, but the good ones and the superior ones certainly make up for it.  Fortunately, I have far more range from good to superior, than not.  It's truly a shame that mass produced albums typically began w...
