reubent,
The music is what still gets me excited. I appreciate your enthusiasm, it is infectious. ( I hope it's alright for one music lover to say that to another?...laughing). If you haven't already, check out "Tune of the day".
Springsteen is one of the many artists I always liked but never bought many lps. I recently bought a used "The River" (lp). Lots of good music, however the sonics are kind of thin. Side 4 has one track that stands out (I can't remember off hand which one, but you'll know it when you hear it. It has some good bass). I really liked "Point Blank".
On the "Tune of the day" thread, I recently posted "Drive All Night" by Glen Hansard. This is his cover of BS/"The River, side 4, track3.
( I re-listened to "YOTC" this morning. A great sounding lp!)
Today, I've been listening to, among others, Radiohead's "OK Computer"/original UK 1st press, and "Moon Shaped Pool". Interesting to hear the growth of this band.
Happy Listening!
