What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report


I enjoy vinyl and digital (lately, with recent changes, vinyl actually sounds better than digital to me), BUT given what seems an overall preference for analog/vinyl on A'gon, I'm curious what the non-vinyl "1/2" is listening to. I tried to see if this was a previously posted question. Did not seem so.

This evening for me, it's Genesis (definitive edition remaster) "A Trick of the Tail".

Last night I listened to 

Tears For Fears - "Everybody Loves a Happy Ending"  

My son 1st turned me on to it. I was never a big fan of the group (duo) but this is very good for a last album from a duo who had been on a 10+ year hiatus. I guess for their devoted fans, the album  lives up to its title. 

On Vinyl, listened to :  An often overlooked talent.

Molly Hatchet -  1st ST


Just finished tonight, Tears for Fears "Seeds of Love" 1989 original release, excellence personified, this album every track!!! is stunning, it reminds me of The Beatles in a way, but with a modern twist.

This 1989 one is the best, just look at the dynamic range

And compare it to the 2015 much more compressed, re-release.

And then the even worse 2020 compressed streamed/download one with bonus tracks.

Big TTF fan here. "Seeds" is a wonderful follow up to "Songs- a true 80's Pop Masterpiece."  Both are excellent system Test discs.

Happy Listening!
Tonight "The The"  "Infected"
Crazy good album from 3rd track on, super wide sound stage, insane dynamics and very good original sound, from a band that didn't really get big time.

Best one again the early uncompressed, one I have .
