@loomisjohnson  I'm glad you got turned onto something cool. I especially like that it was recorded at the Paramount, a theater that I've seen many shows at.

Sammy Hagar - All Night Long (Live).  I think this is an underrated live album, Sammy really tears it up live, the songs are all great (before some of his less than great stuff), and the band is TIGHT (no overdubs)!

Sammy Hagar - Standing Hampton.  I haven't listened to this in a while and it's actually a lot better than I remember.

@bslon You can never have too much Steely Dan.  I do wonder about how much better their earlier albums could be.

@slaw Heartbeat City is one of my favorite records, great songs and the production... wow!

That's awesome Steve!  I sold my upgraded Herron 1 monoblocks recently.  When I set them up to demo for the buyer I realized they sounded better than the amps I decided to keep, so I reached out to Keith about buying another pair and having him "update" those.  He said he had parts around to make some M2 amps (using M1A cases) and offered me a great deal, so those will be arriving soon and I will be back to an all Herron system for pre, phono stage, and amplification.  I'm pretty excited!

On another note, you can skip side 2 of Standing Hampton.

@dayglow I must admit I wasn't really familiar with Richard Thompson's music, but have heard so much about it I wanted to dive in.  I don't regret it!

Funkadelic - Cosmic Slop. This sounds really good for a four men with no ears pressing.

Heart Magazine.  This one's the picture disc.  Not the best sound quality, as expected.
