You guys have me more and more interested in getting some quality classical music on vinyl.  I have some and need to pull them out and get them through the Degritter.  I need to buy more, though.  Thanks for all of the good listings. Been playing...

I have that Blodwyn Pig album.  Bought it new in, I believe, 1972.  I bought it because of the song, Dear Jill, but the whole album is quite good.  I saw them in concert the same year, at The Swing Auditorium, in San Bernardino.  Seats were about ...

Hey guys... I've been out skiing and have had a blast.  I'll be back at it again, soon. Yes indeed, I am a die-hard skier! Nevertheless, I have also been spinning some vinyl and comparing between two phono cartridges.  My Lyra Delos, which I hav...

@reubent    Thanks so much for the good work and going the extra mile.  My original copy and a reissue don't sound very good.  The album is one of my special favorites of The Who.  I also saw them do the North American Tour of that album, at the ...

@dayglow  Thank you for the good tip on The Motels first album.  I bought a M- copy on Discogs and now my Motels collection is complete.  I have had the other two albums since each were released.  They are both wonderful, musically and sonically....

@j_husker   Best wishes to you on a speedy recovery from knee surgery.  I have had 3 such surgeries myself.  Not fun, but with dedicated PT all is good in the end.  I hope that you have a very strong and successful outcome.

@tgilg  the Supertramp album, Crisis, was a go-to when living in the dorms, 1975 - 1976.  I agree with you that it was under rated.  It is a stellar Supertramp album and holds well to this day.  I am so glad to have a pp press, in perfect conditio...

Talking Heads  -  Speaking In Tongues Joan Armatrading  -  S/T Basie Jam  I assume this is #1, it was recorded December 10, 1973.  I got a NM/M- copy for $5 plus shipping.  Man, this is a great album!

But I do have a new copy on the way of Danny Gatton / 88 Elmira Street. Acoustic Sounds has that reissue at $34.98, if anyone is interested.

I was looking for that American Music album but could only find it for between $59 and $100, on Discogs in NM/M- condition.  Rather pricey.  Any suggestions?  
Is High End Audio catchin' up with you all?
I'm pleased to say that I weigh only about 12 pounds more than when I graduated college.  I still wear the same size clothes.  I exercise, I hike in the Summer months, and I ski in the Winter months.  I pull up from the ocean large tuna and other ...

Thanks Brian.  I ordered the correct copy, from Discogs. My wife may even stay in the listening room for this one.

@bkeske  I am interested in that Isaac Stern Album.  I see on Discogs there are two versions, one is a digital process and the other is not.  The digital process is release 36692 and the analog (I believe that is the main difference) is 37244.  Wh...

@whatsaftumch Welcome to this wonderful thread.  Your writing, which I copied and posted below, is spot on.  I am in full agreement with your words and thought.  You are a wise man! Sometimes a beautiful sounding album and a beautiful album are ...

Oingo Boingo  -  Only A Lad   Very early pp I have had since it first was released.  Not many plays on it, perfect condition.  Danny Elfman is a genius! Once  -  A movie soundtrack, I think the only movie soundtrack that I own.  However, this one...
