Whats on your turntable tonight?

Courtney Barnett - “Tell Me How You Really Feel”

Mark Knopfler - “Tracker”

@jamesclarke  The Mercury Rev album stands up really well on its own.  Definitely worth checking out.

Satchmo Plays King Oliver last night. Forgot just how good this is. 
Elton Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, first the best of my 2 MoFi copies, then the best of my 2 original issues. What happened? They all suck. At least now they do. Now that I'm used to how Elton sounds on my Hot Stampers. Where is the bass? Where is the slam? What happened to the dynamics? Why is it all congested, congealed, softened, rolled off and lifeless?? Learn from this guys. Don't fall for it. Don't even get started. The whole Hot Stamper thing is a one-way ticket to audio nirvana, er, I mean Hell.
