Al, welcome and congrats! I believe what may be your first post to this thread is also the 2,000th!
Zaikesman, thanks very much! You are correct on all counts.

My enthusiasm for vinyl has recently been revitalized by the retipping Peter Ledermann of Soundsmith did on my vintage Grace F9E Ruby cartridge. It is simply fabulous, although it's hard for me to compare it to its previous incarnation because some major system changes occurred in the interim.

I'm thus in the early stages of rediscovering my vinyl collection, focusing on recordings that I remember as being particularly good sounding. The two I listed and just listened to certainly qualify in that respect, as well as being excellent performances.

Thanks again. Best regards,
-- Al
