Whats on your turntable tonight?

😎

@bslon  I had a similar experience.  Having purchased my first hi-fi system in 1973, then in 1976 I went to a small HiFi retailer in Claremont, CA (Omega High Fidelity Music Systems) and they put on that album for me.  I upgraded my turntable setup by purchasing from them a new B&O turntable and paid extra for the top-end B&O cartridge.  It made a tremendous improvement to my system.  I also bought the album.  A few systems later, and still here doing it and loving it.  Ain't this fun!!!

Bill that album in particular To Know Me is to Love Me has been an enduring reference for me over many years now… at least 40. ;-)) Sheffield did some amazing work…

Running in a fabulous gift from a great friend, audiophile and importantly music lover @mr_m . Thanks so much for the Mullard Blackburns Tim ;-) Midrange magic abounds !

The initial release is the coveted Direct to Disc, the Treasury series copy  is from the protection copy master tape. I suggest serious listeners get a six pack or 8 pack of Thelma, Grusin, Harry James and Mayorga/McBroom. All great recordings, musicians and super important in discerning what the extra step of tape leaves on the table…
