Saw him live back in the 70's, and thought he was pretty good, but I never followed it up with any record buying. I'm assuming AoS poster System 7 might be a bit of a fan...:)Quote:

My favourite Talking Heads album - mine has a sticker stating "Direct metal Mastering". Don't know how beneficial this is, but it is a damn good recording...Quote:

That's the spirit! If you have something you can't get on with, move it on to a loving home... by the way are you still struggling to like your Steely Dan albums? In particular "Can't Buy a Thrill" and "Pretzel Logic" ;)Quote:

Excellent LP Steve. In fact they're all good with the possible exception, IMO, of "Even in the Quietest Moments".
I bought scores of LPs in the early to mid '80s, when they were being sold off cheaply (99p) in supermarkets, newsagents and even some corner shops. I bought a load of 'crap' (or rather material which didn't 'click' with me), so passed them on to jumble sales (this was before the rise of the now ubiquitous charity shops).Quote:

I'm slowly going through my LP collection and am embarrassed to find I have duplications of several recordings (especially classical). These go the charity shops in return for CDs, which can, on occasion, be a duplication of something I have already - and so it goes around! :rolleyes:
Should try to setup some sort of 'swap shop' on here, I'm sure most of us have a few duplicates or unwanted 'treasures' they'd be happy to exchange for someone else's old tat....
Bit of a cheesy one last night...

I was also playing this one on Sunday, forgotten how much I liked it. Wouldn't mind a copy of their first album, and also "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath", which was my favourite :)Quote:

Ha.....must have all been on the same wavelength. I was listening to Sabbath earlier........till mum asked for something different.......at which point I put on Janis Joplin.....and her comment was "since when were you into Country music?"
Now we are currently listening to Ella........quite enjoying it actually.

Having another listen to this cracker, huge bass levels and dynamics, perfect for checking out speaker set up and listening position.

I am discovering albums that I probably have never played before.......but owned for 40 years

Apologies here...feel like I've confiscated the thread. We went into total lock down here today.....right to the point where nobody is allowed in your house unless you live there.....or unless your are taking care of a family member who lives alone. I'm in total agreement as the half assed approach is just prolonging things. Anyway, I'm in full record mode tonight.
One of my favourite albums.........and if you haven't seen the movie Harold and Maude..you should...it's odd but I loved it too. This would be the sound track to that movie (and there's a modified E-type Jag in there.......that I'd trade my children for LOL)

Ok last one......I'll finish off with a little local Winnipeg talent.

quite the voice indeed, I've managed to see her a couple of times and its the same voice live as on her recordings. I could wish she hadn't decided to retire.Quote:
