| Steve Albini R.I.P. Damn, another one younger than I. My pick is Country Love Songs by Robbie Fulks. | |

| Record Store Day 2024? @wolf_garcia: J.S. Bach is my favorite composer, Baroque my favorite Classical period, Bluegrass my favorite Pop genre these days. Have you also heard the Goat Rodeo album? It’s Thile, Meyer, and Ma, along with Stuart Duncan on Fiddle. A 2-LP s... | |
| Record Store Day 2024? Jim, I enjoy knowing that Jerry had been playing acoustic (guitar and banjo) around the Stanford University campus in Palo Alto only a coupla years before I started playing at that school’s frat parties in ’68. Those frat boys know how to party, a... | |
| Record Store Day 2024? @slaw: And a good opinion it is Steve! Thanks @aheydorn, you make excellent points. | |
| Record Store Day 2024? @tomic601: Jim, I recently picked up a copy of the Old & In The Way LP. I bought it when it was released in ’75, but didn’t consider it good enough to keep. The recorded sound quality was certainly top notch, however. When I saw it on the w... | |

| 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... | |
| Record Store Day 2024? @tomic601: At least this year it wasn’t raining in Portland! |
