  1. Continuing on with this one. Like all the Hendrix vinyl I've heard from Legacy (and I've heard it all but the Berkley) it sounds excellent. Good to know. I sold most of my MCA's(except purple box). Loved the packaging, but not sound. Have this one and a few other Legacy's in my cart on Amazon. I just sprang for a German pressed Beatles stereo vinyl box (which I think is great...better than my MOFI's). Need to get this one, Winterland and the Beatles mono box, too.
  2. Fabulous Johnny Cash....Record Store Day reissue...mono...very nice! Can still be had on ebay for $25.....less in January when normal release comes out. Fed Ex just brought 4 more AP Prestige mono LP's from their series. I signed up for it. Frankly, I am looking forward to the Prestige stereo series a bit more. I have few if any of those titles.
  3. Been listening to the vinyl Beatles box..EU edition!!!!, also. My birthday and Christmas presents. It was $65 more than terrible USA pressed. Me and the wife(she don't like jazz) have been enjoying it for a week! The book weighs more than my cast iron frying pans.
  4. Yep..I never liked Sketches in stereo.This one suits me much better. I think they will be available in couple months un-numbered or whatever I got. Being into vinyl and record stores I like the whole concept of RSD. I think these were mastered by Kevin Gray, pressed at RTI or QRP. Been tired of finding nice originals for years. I have the the phono pre-amp you replaced. Got tired of my slightly noisy tube phono pre-amps. Still have tube amps.
  5. Record Store Day purchases... Miles: Porgy..Miles Ahead...Sketches mono reissues. WOW!!!
  6. Beatles: Revolver from EU 2012 vinyl box. Get this as least as a the EU individual LP!!!! No shit!! 7 Music Matters BN 45 RPM's on deck!!
  7. Beatles: Revolver and Beatles for Sale from Remasters vinyl box released a few days ago...UK edition
  8. Jackie McLean: 4 5 and 6 Hank Mobley: Mobleys Message Analogue Productions Prestige mono series reissues.. Love the sound, mastering and QRP vinyl!!
  9. McLean: Destination Out! Music Matters 45 RPM
  10. Chewy, Have you seen it? It did freak me out. I ran for an explanation. Totally obscure BN titles off of vinyl to a Denon CD recorder come up with all I mentioned above!! I guess Chuck says how it's done......and my kid said " iTunes is crazy that way"....but it does scare me!!!! Buying a new turntable in a few days....this is too scary for me!!!! I'm going back to the 20th Century..... thank you very much.
  11. I did not enter anything when I copied my vinyl to CD to play in the car. I put the dub CD into the tray on my desk top and iTunes comes up with album, artist, songs and times. Blows me away!!!
  12. replacing my needle on my tt?????????? Every response has been useless!! What is your TT and cardtridge??
  13. Ella & Duke at the Cote D'Azur (3 LPs) (MRLP-3002)
  14. Funny, Horace Silver and Corea are the only ones I have. They were/are just so much more cooler than the others.
  15. Yep, it's funny how the left wingers on this site will not tolerate different music "formats", or their price, but stand idly by when you may the one that saves jazz from the public domain. You are intimidated by some of the creeps on this site.... Once the PD guys start dubbing these Gray/Hoffman re-issues it's all over!!!!!!!!
  16. What cartridge do you have? If you know that, you'd have to be stupid not to find a replacement stylus(not 'needle') for it.
  17. Top Of The Stax..Twenty Greatest Hits Fantasy twofer that may still be available
  18. We had 6-8 player Strat leagues in the day. We had a draft and played 162 games, plus playoffs. The shit was serious!! When the Gwynn brothers moved into the neighborhood things really heated up. Charles, Tony and Chris were great guys, and besides their dad and our coaches, I know Strat hooked them on baseball. I was like 14 and Tony Gwynn was 7, and he did all the averages in his head...even after 400 AB's!!! Me and a future football player named Tony Hill (Cowboys '79-'88)just shook our heads at how smart and competitive those guys were. The last full set I bought was '95.
  19. Baseball...San Francisco..who really cares? The Giants in NY sucked..and totally crippled Mays in San Fran... The Dodgers made you guys look like jokers for 55 years!! I mean really, are all of you over 65?
  20. Sonny Rollins: Now's The Time(RCA) Classic reissue Killer music and IMO a killer reissue by Classic. Anyone else think so? Big, booming tone on Sonny's tenor. Deep and detailed bass. Like many live shows, the bass on many jazz records is not as present as I like. Shelly Manne: My Fair Lady (Contemporary) Previn/Freeman: Double Play (Contemporary) Yummmmmmy cover!! Jimmy Smith: Home Cookin' (BN) mono Ellington: Anatomy Of A Murder (Mobile Fidelity)Some stuff I really and some I wish had a remote with a skip track button for my turntable. Hank Mobley: Hank Mobley BN 1568 (Classic Records) Curtis Fuller: The Opener BN 1567 (King Japan) Doing a little comparison of the sound of Mobley's tenor on these two, just for kicks
  21. Don Wiklkerson "SHOUTIN'!"original Quebec SOUL SAMBA original Donaldson SUNNY SIDE UP reissue Griffin "INTRODUCING" reissue Smith HOME COOKIN' original and Freddie Roach marathon.... Down to Earth Good Move Brown Sugar All That's Good ...all originals
  22. Any comments regarding what a cluster f... the Seattle Mariners are? Player goes after coach with the GM standing right there?????? Send 'em off like the Sonics.
  23. Yeeeha! He's back - firing off the same post at two forums. Look, Indestructible! you just gotta join the dots. OF COURSE the World Cup is anti-American. For the very simple reasons that 1. American is the centre of the universe; and 2. American is the greatest country in the world. The US has been one of the under dog teams I've been cheering for - along with (obviously) Australia, but also NZ and all the rest of 'em. I can happily drop the US now, though, coz the cavalry's arrived! Need I say more. The world is laughing at this World Cup. Every player/ref wants to leave....is it that hard to figure out.
