Slaw: you are about to get jealous.

I still have my original press of Grievous Angel. I have a couple more presses. Near mint. I have almost the entire Gram Parsons catalogue. 

I saw Gram Parsons with Emmylou Harris and the Fallen Angels at Upstairs at Max’s Kansas City in the spring of ... 1974 if memory serves. Six sets over three of the five days he performed there. On the middle day, second set, he brought his friends onstage: Linda Rondstat and Dave Mason.

I was sitting in the front row each night. A friend worked the tables downstairs in the restaurant and got me in for free through the backstage door early. The front row was practically in the performers laps. I was no more than 6 to 8 feet from all the action.

I saw a lot of great shows there. Those were the days. Long gone. 😢
Slaw, Thanks for the heads up

Uber, The more I hear about your childhood, the more we have in common (LOL)

Based on your preference of smooth side up, makes me think my initial thought was right. A cart/arm mismatch.

Just curious as to what led you to think the MyMat would help with the particular problem noromance was having.
Dissipation of excess energy?
It is most interesting for sure!
Thanks. Not too concerned. First time I’ve encountered this. The record is pretty lively and I know my bare metal platter can be a hostile surface but it sounds so good. Thanks again for your insight.
