gasman1003 Posted January 6, 2024 Posted January 6, 2024 Snow Ghosts - A Quiet Ritual. Houndstooth Records, UK, 2019 Birdy - Portraits Warner Music Records, UK, 2023. 4
metal beat Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 (edited) a couple of arrivals today: Blur - Ballad of Dustbin - luvely sounding album - sounds more like a Damon solo album than a Blur album on first listen. Coxon and his guitar playing a playing real background role. A.A. Williams - Songs From Isolation - sound is good despite the pretty splatter vinyl. sensational artist.

stevoz Posted January 8, 2024 Author Posted January 8, 2024 (edited) Today at local JB HiFi.....R.E.M. "Automatic For The People" 2023 L/E remastered reissue on yellow vinyl (prefer black but oh well), Euro release but possibly a US pressing. Remastered at Precision Mastering by Steve Magnussen, lacquer cut at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Amazingly this was cheaper at JB than I could get it via Discogs.

The sound quality is great, good sound stage, details and dynamic...etc I will definitely keep an eye on their coming release. The prices of those out of print issues are ridiculous but unfortunately it happens to all good quality record releases now... Good thing is DG has already releasing 2nd prints so it is ok. I want to get the Stravinsky one, 2nd pressing is coming out tomorrow? be quick! 1 1

Your post was a moderate impost on the credit Card this morning, $383 for the Stravinsky, Kuberlich and the Smetana Ma Vlast. I will contact the merch division and see how many albums can be fitted in the standard 60 euro DHL box. 1
xtiva2000 Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 While I was visiting Korea went to one of the underground shopping centers full of used record stores. Went into one of the bigger stores. The below photo only shows less than 1/4th of what the store had.. So many to choose from, like having discogs catalog in front of me... more amazing thing was that this was one of more than 30 similar stores in the shopping center... Just wish has more spare time to browse... Bought a few as I was planning on going there a few more times but time didn't permit and hence only got below.. all mint or better condition 6
