  1. This would be fine by me. Also, more new recordings have got to be recorded using DSD!! Otherwise, what's the point? It's also a shame this technology is owned by Sony/Phillips.
  2. Is there much psychobabble in the book?
  3. Oh, yeah. I was referring to the 'pully' adaptor I use with my Valhalla, which you do not need with the Lingo.
  4. Ellington: Time Life set(30's-40's) Quebec: It Might As Well Be Spring Roach: Down To Earth Siver: Tokyo Blues Hubbard: Hub-Tones Smith: Chicken Shack
  5. You do not need a spindle adaptor.
  6. Well, this last post of yours was very good Michael. It explained things to the neophyte(me). How many of us here, or more importantly, how many average WS fans, have one tenth the knowledge you do? I believe you know more about some things regarding WS than the author. I think it's good that you can keep the author 'honest', and am glad you are doing so. I'm putting myself in the average/neophyte WS fan category. Will I be lied to in reading the book? Is it a good read for an everyday fan? All I know about WS is he is an incredible writer/ arranger and his wife died in a plane crash, and I have 30 albums he plays on. I can understand how the errors must pain you. Your criticisms are not over the top or unimportant. Is the book somewhat worthy or just a crock of shit? If I enjoyed the the Burn's "Jazz' series will I enjoy this book? BTW, I've just watched the Burn's series again. IMHO it stunk visually, but I enjoyed what Wynton brought to the table . It should have been a radio show. I guess what I'm trying to say is, we are not all experts or in the trade. We appreciate your patience towards us.
  7. Check out the Linn web site or e-mail them with any questions. IIRC the light gets darker or changes color at 45rpm.
  8. George Braith: Extension George Braith: Two Souls In One George Braith: Soulstream (all nice originals) Larry Young: Unity Grant Green: I Want To Hold Your Hand (both from the Young Mosaic) Mingus: Mingus Presents Mingus (from the Mosaic set) Ben Webster: Soulville (Speakers Corner)
  9. Smart kid. Good luck with your guitar playing.
  10. Probably, an early CD reissue. Start picking up Blue Note's 'RVG' series of reissues for great booklets.
  11. I have the hardcover, but need to get the softcover. Don't forget to get the 2005 Blue Note calendar with more nice Wolff photos. It's also nice to have a few Blue Note LP's(ask you dad what they are) with the beautiful covers that include Wolff's photos. So kid, how did you get interested in jazz?
  12. Whatever the case, I like it. I've e-mailed Mosaic to see if someone there remembers any details.
  13. Could be, I guess.
  14. Great example of another lame ass post by Nessa.
  15. Are you practicing on us, before you explain it to you know who? Enjoy the LP! I hope that's what she says.
  16. Hmmm??? I wonder what the deal is. They found mono tapes(with the 2 alts) after the LP set was issued? Maybe, someone had a different reaction to the LP's stereo sound and opted for the mono for the CD's???? Regardless, I'm more than happy with what I have.
  17. Probably has a Linn LP12 w/o Lingo motor. The Valhalla model only spins 'em at 33. I have same tt/motor, but use a pulley attachment and seperate belt to spin at 45rpm. Cool set btw, enjoy. No, I have the Lingo Are you saying I can set this thing to spin 45rpm? Will still need to get the spindle adapter though.... After a few big vinyl buys of late I'm broke so this one had to be passed up.. You are joking, right? Lingo is 33/45. Hold the on/off button down to switch to 45rpm. No adaptor needed.
  18. Dito, for me. It's always within arms reach.
  19. Probably has a Linn LP12 w/o Lingo motor. The Valhalla model only spins 'em at 33. I have same tt/motor, but use a pulley attachment and seperate belt to spin at 45rpm. Cool set btw, enjoy.
  20. I've thought the sound on most of thiis set amazing(or at least very, very good) for years. I've mentioned it a few times, but you are first to post a similar feeling. I'd guess the recodings were good to begin with. The 'Mingus Presents' sides sure sound naturally stereo to my ears. Never heard of mono tapes being used for these sides.
  21. Volume One First in a proposed 12 part series. Limited to 5000 per volume. I'll try to get 1 or 2 later volumes.
  22. Debussy "IBERIA" Reiner/CSO Shaded Dog reissue from Claaic Records Hutherson: Smack-Up! Mobley and His All Stars BN 1544 (W.63rd DG) Cover is ruined by a couple autographs...Horace Silver and Milt Jackson.
  23. Geez, Brownie!! Is there an LP you do not have? DrJ..talkin' about gettin' CD's in the vinyl frontier. Probation for vou. I'd be very happy with the Fantasy set, especially at the prices mentioned. I have a bunch of the Miles OJC's and think they sound good enough. The AP set is too pricey for me. $35 a record?? But, it is probably a nice upgrade. I say that even though I buy plenty of $30 LP's.
  24. Classic Records reissues
