VINYL: Currently Spinning

[stevoz]

Last night, post movie:

 

Steely Dan "The Royal Scam" UK repress.....post glue clean. This really came up a treat....and we all know a perfect Steely Dan pressing IS a real treat. Sounded superb!

 

 

Crossfire "East Of Where" Oz 1st pressing.....again superb SQ.

 

 

Crossfire self titled debut, Oz 1st pressing.....another SQ treat.....this is more prog stoner jazz than their later more quirky 'fun' jazz. Love it.

 

 

Ended with another SQ banger, the superb production that is Alan Parsons Project "Stereotomy" German 1st pressing. Truly superb dynamics on this.

 

 

A really enjoyable late evening.

40 year anniversary yesterday - fkn essential album 

[Kristian Kristiansen]

Underground Lovers - Staring at You Staring at Me 

 

Bloody excellent later era album from one of my fave aussie bands - two tracks - Rerun and Unbearable are as good as anything they've ever done- truly excellent songs 

 

@metal beat was chatting to singer Glenn Bennie - it seems that with Ways T'Burn now on vinyl for the first time - the holy grail - Dream it Down - could be next!!!!!!

Dipping my toes into classical. Going with The Original Source series from Deutsche Grammophon.  These 2 are from the first release. I have a couple from the second release in the series on their way to me. AAA that sound amazing. To me it’s a bit like Tone Poets from Blue Note is to Jazz.

yea, I had been telling GB to get on the vinyl bandwagon for ages.  Finally he listened 

 

Got Ways t Burn & Cold Feeling are in transit as we speak.   Dream It Down is a bit harder - they need to beg Polydor for the master tapes.

Using both my Stereo and Mono tables today. Two different Morrisons. Both arriving today. I don’t know why it took me so long to get Astral Weeks, this is a great release and an excellent pressing of it. The Doors Mono is an excellent pressing too, i do have the AP stereo release but really enjoyed the Mono from VMP.
