| Whats on your turntable tonight? The vinyl from my youth, unfortunately, became rather thrashed and I gave those away many years ago. Even then, I repurchased several. And now, I have repurchased a number of those titles either as reissue or NM/M- in a used record. Those memor... | |
| Tang Band 2145 in action You have got to be kidding. Even my computer speakers were unable to "dummy down" the horrible sound of those low-end drivers.Really, really bad! I would not put them in my car audio system, or even the car audio system in my children' cars.Bow... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Steve,Regarding Kirmus method, also check out the method used by theaudiophileman I like his method very much and am about to get the products and begin to apply that method with my Degritter. It's very similar to Kirmus. You can find it by sea... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? I have quite a few Alice albums. I saw them three times in concert, each for the album tour: Killer, Billion Dollar Babies, and Welcome To My Nightmare.Phenomenal concerts which, at the time, Alice called it "Rock Theater".Performing "Cold Ethyl... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Indeed, Wild Life isn't as "polished" but that helps make it what it is. Listening to the album brought back memories of my girlfriend at the time. I was a freshman in college, we met, and we loved this album. I had my first real high-fidelity ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I've made the mistake of playing a 45 at 33 more than once. "Hey, that sounds really weird! Oh, I know why..."Wings, Wild Life I have had this since it first released. Wonderful!Ambrosia, S/T Also, since it first was released. Awesome!Tim ... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Roger Waters "Amused To Death" This album is the ultimate in ambience, width, and outside-of-the-speakers effects. But it also has the most incredible center-stage vocals I have ever heard. In the room with you, almost scary.I'm heading to the... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I think that we all remember exactly where we were at the moment we got the news. It's embedded into my life.Everyone, everywhere I traveled for the next number of weeks and months (by car, no flights), were all so cordial to one another. The en... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Speaking of Robin Trower, I was fortunate to have seen him perform. About 5th or 6th row, center stage. Man, I saw a lot of great concerts "back in the day". I'll have to cue up some Trower later today.Just bought this and will cue it up, after... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Steve, I am very surprised about the bad copy you got on that Mayall album. My copy is so flat and so quiet, both LPs. SQ is outstanding on all tracks. Track 3 on side 2 I think is my favorite. Moody Blues "In Search of the Lost Chord"'...thi... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Spirit,Really? A remaster (half speed) 45 of "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" is available for preorder and soon to ship? This must be good fate for me. I had ordered a Pink Floyd Records version of that album and received it a couple of weeks ago... |
