Whats playing on your system today?


Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.

I listened to Trower songs:
Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....

Then I pulled out "Gamma". 
I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....

Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?

If you can change the belts or have a local dealer do it for a fair price you could well be right.

I have the service manual. It doesn’t look too tough. The biggest thing, as I understand, is getting high quality or OEM belts. There is a company I’ve bookmarked that has the ‘real deal’ for sale. Not cheap, but in my opinion, the only way to go.

At my age, I’m getting to the point of letting other more experienced folks do stuff like this, even at a cost. Plus, they may be able to look at other settings or alignments that need taken care of, and which I have no clue, while ‘under the hood’. There was a time I would tackle almost anything, but if it’s only $50 or so so let an expert do it, why not? Heck, that’s how I stay in business vs folks who think they can do it themselves ;-) I always tell them, ‘well, good luck’.
Van Morrison - Moondance. WB 1970

Cassette

slip card says 1970, definitely not a remaster of the 80’s onward. No Dolby stamp, and playing it ‘bare’. Not the best SQ, but not too bad. Better than other older 70’s tapes I have, which are few. Flipped my iFi Mini Tube2 over to single ended (SET) mode, and it sounds better. Could have been a 1970 release, but I’m thinking it’s probably a early-mid 70’s release. Just guessing, all these cassette releases are date unknown on Discogs.
They did actually release it on Seven Arts label on cassette in 1970.
That’s quite a survivor of it is a 1970.

Rest of reissues have no date
@uberwaltz

Yep, I see that one on Discogs. Mine is a different card design. M5 3103. Interesting. Still playing well regardless 👍🏼
