    Agreed, we've got a few albums as my wife was in to them back in the day. I've been listening to his nine horses stuff lately and been meaning to pull the old Japan stuff out for a listen....

    So to one of possibly the best ever Southern Rock albums from the 70's, and on this special pressing it is very special, all the recordings layers are clearly apparent giving you the feeling of being in the studio with the band, well worth hunting a copy of this out, a foot tapper from start to finish.

    Lynyrd Skynyrd ‎– (pronounced'lĕh-'nérd'skin-'nérd)
    Label: Analogue Productions ‎– APP 363-45, Universal Music Special Markets ‎– B0024532-01, MCA Records ‎– B0024532-01

    Country: US
    Released: 27 Jan 2017
    Genre: Rock
    Style: Blues Rock, Hard Rock, Southern Rock

    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    Analog Inputs: Pro-Ject Signature 10 TT & arm, Benz Micro LP-S, Michel Cusis MC, Goldring 2500 and Ortofon Rondo Blue cartridges, Hitachi FT5500 mk2 Tuner

    Digital:- Marantz SA-KI Pearl CD player, RaspberryPi/HifiBerry Digi+ Pro, Buffalo NAS Drive

    Amplification:- AudioValve Sunilda phono stage, Krell KSP-7B pre-amp, Krell KSA-80 power amp

    Output: Wilson Benesch Vector speakers, KLH Ultimate One Headphones

    Cables: Tellurium Q Ultra Black II RCA & Chord Epic 2 RCA, various speaker leads, & links

    I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.

    Manchester Orchestra - The Silence
    Possibly the best post break-up song ever written in this man’s opinion.

    And the ambience, the key changes...powerful stuff.
