Record Store Day 2024?
  Music Millennium has copies of some of this year’s titles still available, and even some from Black Friday RSD 2023. MM has store-wide sales throughout the year, so one can wait and buy then at 15-20% off retail. Let me anticipate a post from ... 
Mobile Fidelity Settlement Update
  "1,000 LP’s means 1,000 times the master tape is played." Wow! @texbychoice, you need to read up on the subject, you’re embarrassing yourself.    
Record Store Day 2024?
  Rather than initiating a new thread, I believe I’ll post this video of Mazzy reporting from the Austin Record Show here. I assume this video will result in people who think LP’s in general---and "collectible" ones in particular---are nonsense e... 
Magnepan “X” upgrade program
  This thread originally posted while I was incommunicado. For he who is willing and able to do the work him or herself, GR Research offers an upgrade kit for far less than $4000. The kit also includes a cross-over that "corrects" the frequency ... 
A great video on an artist you may not be aware of. Participants include Elvis Costello.
  Sure will @mashif, thanks.    
Record Store Day 2024?
  @slaw: I too missed out on the Chris Isaak 2-LP set in Millennium Music (by the time I was in the store it had already sold out.). I bought my copy online the day after RSD, from The In Groove in Phoenix Arizona. This 2-LP set is already out-of...

  @tomic601: At least this year it wasn’t raining in Portland!

  Yeah @mashif, I probably should have moved to Nashville at some point. I know a few guys who relocated to Austin from California, and are glad they did. I'm too old now. 😉

  @stuartk: I too love Gurf’s playing. I sometimes saw him in the Guitar Center on Ventura Blvd. in Sherman Oaks, buying guitar strings. He has done some great producing other than Lucinda, including Mary Gauthier. He has also made a few nice alb...

  Thanks for the link Mark, I'm definitely gonna subscribe and watch the series. Congratulations on a job well done! I've been involved musically with some unique artists (Emitt Rhodes, Evan Johns, Pearl Harbour), and few people know the price t...

  @markmoskow: I LOVE Larry Campbell! I saw him live when he was serving as Dylan’s guitarist, harmony singer, and band leader. After that he went to work for Levon Helm, both in recordings and the live shows in Levon’s Woodstock barn. He figures...

  @stuartk: When you watch the video on Lauderdale I posted you will get the answer to your question, and much more. 😉 You may get an inkling as to why Elvis Costello, Buddy Miller, Lucinda Williams, Rodney Crowell, and many other artists (and I... 
MC-MM-MI CARTRIDGES . DO YOU KNOW WHICH HAS BETTER QUALITY PERFORMANCE? REALLY?
  Yeah @rauliruegas, James Boyk's Performance Recordings label LP's are mighty fine. I have 5 of them myself.

  And Iris DeMent. She’s coming back to town in a coupla months, get to see & hear her live again. Iris was John Prine’s favorite collaborator.
