Congratulations Elliott.
On hitting 72 and the haul of great music!

Without going political on this or any thread I have to say your last paragraph is completely true.
Slaw
all to do with cart movement in one direction only, assuming you are talking about playing it with a mono cart.

May still play fairly quiet with a stereo cart, never tried.

Nothing new in the mail for me this week, just the ones I brought back from Indiana.
Record #6.

Jascha Horenstein conducts the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

Wagner, the Flying Dutchman Overture And Siegfried Idyll.
Have always thought classical pieces should have been cut from the inner groove going out to the edge.
The inner grooves are worst place possible for most classical high octane finales!
Think how easy it would be to reproduce the cannons in the 1812 that way.......
All you would need is a arm lifter to stop the stylus doing a swan dive off the edge.
Oh and an enterprising cutter to begin with....
Pollinator .... Blondie.

I streamed this couple years back and thought it was very compressed.

I bought the album at B&N 50% off sale on a chance.

It sounds quite good so nice surprise.
Not getting sucked into this BS. Just popping in to comment on the bullying, and the intolerance, and ignorance, and where it all leads. When some whiny special snowflake gets to censor and silence whatever he doesn't like, then turn around and pick and choose what parts of it to criticize, its total childish bullying of the worst sort. No attempt at finding anything of any real substance. Just stfu. Oh but we still get to pull up whatever slight we can find, right down to a single misplaced letter, and nail you for that. Which you don't get to defend, because we just take down what you post. While our BS gets a free pass every time.  

Pathetic.

Oh, where it all leads? Well you would know that. Except they got to the books before they got to the web. So you never read Lord of the Flies. Pity. You would see yourself there. On. Every. Page.
LMFAO.
Looks like my favorite member has finally lost it big time.
It's definitely Miller Time!
Sorry, it's off topic but I have zero time or patience for that clown whatsoever.
Just needed to vent.... Lol.
Anyways enough already, this is not the thread to drag down into the primordial ooze those pair skulk around in.

You can't stop the signal!
Not really surprised Eric.
But between Miller and Mijo it's enough to make one think they picked a hell of a week to quit glue sniffing!
What’s happening? Am I in a Progressive commercial?
You are the star of it GK, in fact you sound a bit like Flo......
Fell asleep....lol.
Woke up to find power out.
23000 homes without power here so fairly major problem.
To get back to headphones.... Actually pretty decent but NO substitute for the Spatial OB speakers. Where da bass!!
GK
If you had said pastry guy I might have replied that I resemble that remark.....
You don't like Chuck?
It's good to relax too.

And your post two up cracked me up but oh so true.

When I have gear out for delivery I am prowling the doors and windows watching for the FedEx or UPS truck.
When not, well they could dig up the drive and I might not notice that day......
Greg
Is that the same Angel City that is also known as The Angels from Angel City?
From Australia?
Pretty sure it is.
I have Beyond Salvation, few years later but pretty awesome IMHO.
So ..... Peter Gabriel.

Not my favorite album but for $1 in mint condition I'm not going to pass it up.

Great SQ for sure!
Rafevw.
Sorry to see you go to the dark side!
Seriously contrary to popular belief they do NOT have cookies!😁😁.

Really though why not do both?
A lot who post here play records and stream.
Try it before divesting yourself of all those fine records that you may live to regret.

I ripped all my CDs couple years back and rarely play CD often but records?
No way could I part with that sound.

Good luck though.
Ok call me stupid...
How in the world do you search for items just by a certain seller on discogs?
I see no such option on the app?
PC version only or am i missing something?
What did you do on discogs brother Slaw!
LMAO

Sorry but that is funny that the Audiogon king of vinyl does not meet some requirements.
🤔🤔🤔
And Slaw... you know I am not laughing at you of course, just the absurdity of the situation.
Correct Slaw, which is why I felt comfortable buying 3 albums from his list.

My seller grading are all based on my own play test and if it is bad, well I will say so up front,no point trying to make a quick buck and having upset customers and a bad rep.
Rafe
I understand totally.
Btw I figured out how to search by username and just placed an order with you my friend!

My username on discogs is crowtree99
Slaw
I hear you and agree completely on all that is bad with discogs, remember the debacle I also had with the Led Zep 3 album.
I have thrown better albums away!
But same thing, just cos I had only 8 feedback and the seller had 100+ I am "the noob" and don't know my condition grading!
I remind them that I have 1800+ pos feedback on eBay and most certainly do know a thing or three about record grading and sales/purchases and they then pulled the offer of returning it for a refund and outright stated any bad feedback left would result in the same and likely a report to discogs where I would be sure to lose.

I still might call his bluff, say 10 minutes before feedback time period is ending!
Berlin ... Lou Reed.

This was a B&N 50% purchase.

About all it's worth.... Lol.
SQ is pretty lame.
Oh well.
The Best Of Alcatrazz.

The man responsible for giving Ritchie Blackmore what he had craved for so long.... MTV hits.
Graham Bonnet.
Charlie Byrd.
LTD edition white vinyl direct disc master 45rpm version.
To think they had all that back in 1977!!

Sounds as good as you expect it to, maybe better 😁
Slaw
Another all nighter!
Good man.

Btw drrsutlif is not really that new... Lol
Lives 1 mile from me and is the table setup guru I go to for help in setting my gear up to perfection. He has all the right tools for the job and a fine pair of ears!

He is enjoying his new Origin Live table right now I suspect.
