Today was interesting and fun. Being a “metal head” since I was a kid, most of the music I listened to in those days was cassette. Awhile back I purchased another members collection and it included a few original pressing “metal” classics from Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica and a few others. Today I pulled out for the first time, Iron Maiden’s Piece of Mind… damn. It was so cool to hear that album in all of the original glory. I expected it to sound kind of glaring and not so great. But, wow, I was pleasantly surprised! Made my day and brought me back a few years! Love this hobby!
Lol @tomic601 & @noromance, I saw the recommendation & added that Alberta Hunter album to my discogs bag.

Sacd’s tonight.  Just finished Stacey Kent / Collection, and currently immersed in Rachmaninov / All-Night Vigil.  Phoenix Chorale - Kansas City Chorale, Charles Bruffy.

It’s breathtakingly beautiful choral music. 
But I did order lots of vinyl today.

Congrats @geof3. Had a similar experience with Thin Lizzy last week. Don’t remember it sounding that good in high school. I bet our systems contribute a great deal.
It’s funny, getting back into vinyl after a long absence, I find myself seeking the music that I listened to on vinyl in my youth. Sometimes I’ll see something that was in my parents or grandparents collection and buy it, remembering the people and places that I heard it first. Earlier today I bought

The Button - Down Mind of Bob Newhart

cuz it reminded me of my youth.

A great hobby, indeed!
