Two of the later albums worth a listen are Blue Moves and Rock of the Westies. I do agree that some EJ material is throw away.
Latest bin find.....Elton John
I found an unusually clean copy of EJ's second album, simply titled "Elton John"
This replaced my okay copy. Just when you've written off certain albums off as unobtanium(condition/cost) a minty copy awaits with persistence!
This Uni domestic press sounds fantastic. Perhaps it's just because it so clean/unmolested.
Ive never heard a Britsh press. Faves include "Take me to the Pilot" ""Sixty Years On" and "Border Song"
I lost interest after "Goodbye YBR" but always keep EJ as a "Hall of Fame" kinda performer.

"You misread" Ah..silly me. I default to stamper guy, when I see DCC in a sentence.I get his site as a hit, when I do a search. http://dccblowout.com Great album, regardless. |
slaw, are you certain it's the same dude? I agree with TP on a lot of his critique, but call BS on some his his attempts at being "technical" with descriptives. There isn't anyone who's 100%, and he sometimes hits a BS grand slam, now and then. I'm curious of his technical pedigree.and qualifications. Personally, im not sold on heavy presses. You probably have some decent,floppy Bowie copies in your collection? On the flip side, I have not heard a heavy press as inferior. Most, not all new, anything to my ears has bumped up bass and an unexplainable something(perhaps it just in my head?) which is lacking? Example-Friday Music copies I have...Trower,Beck etc.. sound like their pressed for my system I used in 1978! |
