I'm feeling left out. They can be originals, reissues, Japanese, etc.. I have 200. I'm half way there. For the last year or two I've only been trying to collect originals.
-
I've bought all the vinyl re-issues from Sundazed and have enjoyed them very much. I have not sprung for the pricey Classic Records titles.

For you vinyl loving AC/DC fans. Individual LP's will also be available. Whole Lotta Rosie

Been using this for the last few days. It's a great sounding cartridge for the money. It's as good as my Grado Red($95), but not as good as my more expensive cartridges. Walco ES 30ex

Can't answer your questions. I really like this album, too. If I did not know "Soul Serge" was a Freddie and company tune, I'd think it was Lee Morgan. "Blue Spirits" also sounds like something from Morgan's "Search For New Land"...or vice versa??

Many of these codes have been broken before they got to market. Digital audiophile labels will go under, do to the fact that this technology degrades sound quality.

Just got a beautiful pressing of this LP. It's on the Pablo label. Duke Elligton and Ray Brown...that's it. Dead quiet vinyl. Great sound. Analog to the extreme. Love it!!! It's very easy to forget it is a recording. The instuments sound that real and undistorted. I'll others comment on the music. Laid back and smoothly swinging is what I enjoy about it. So, if you do not have this one yet, get it!! Thanks again Dmitry!!

We were always very impressed by their arrangements and how polished they were. A frown cannot stay on your face when you hear these guys. Saw them about 10 years ago. Same energy and stage presence. My 15 year old (who was then 5) still thinks it was a great show. Still have their lp's. One still has an' iron on' inside it. It says," Oakland...they done found the stroke..." I also have a direct to disc lp on the Sheffield Lab label called "TOP Direct". Guest percussionist is Victor Feldman.

I listen to only vinyl, except in the car, so I'd like to see an 'only vinyl' forum. I buy no digital...just burn cd's from my lp's.. Getting to be too many formats. Hey, who has a nice collection of BN 45's?? I've seen other BB's split between vinyl, cd and SACD/DAD-A. I think it could be a really good forum. I see it discussing things like: turntables, cartridges, collectables, tt set-up, re-issues and good used vinyl, Mosaic vinyl and different labels(I need to know what steeplechase vinyl to get). I think "Good Guys' just ordered a bunch of quality tt's to stock. Vinyl is not going away. Linn LP12

What do you mean by "upgrade"? Are you saying that these were supposed to be better sounding than the earlier CD releases? I think you better petition one of the audiophile labels(Classic Records, Acoustic Sounds, Mobile Fidelity) to start liscencing BN titles if you really want "upgrades". If Classic Records vinyl "upgrades " are similar to what they could do with digital you guys would be in for a shock.

COMPLETE KEYNOTE COLLECTION - 21 lp set.
wolff replied to Dmitry's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I'd feel comfortable paying $250 if I wanted it. Looks like the one that did not sell has been re-listed. I have no idea how much they have gone for over the years. -
I turn to Otis Redding. Organ shows up now and then. Otis Redding and Carla Thomas/King and Queen Dictionary of Soul Otis Blue Sings Soull Ballads And my fav by far: Live at the Whisky A Go Go Vol 2...6 horns...Raw..I sweat listening to this.

Who wants Dmitry to pick the AOTW sometime soon???
wolff replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Album Of The Week
He gained my support by giving me good deal on an LP I wanted and he said he'd vote for me if I ever get nominated. Are you sure he's a dentist? Sounds like he's running for governor of California. -
I suppose you were looking for native American items. We were at Punkin Center(Tonto Basin) when this old guy invites us for drinks at his shack. He was about 80 with classic bowed legs. Attached to his shack was 'his' collection of artifacts. Amazing display of items he'd collected over the years. He was going to donate it to a museum when he passed. Hi-jack off.

Very nice collection of jazz LP's on ebay
wolff replied to wolff's topic in Offering and Looking For...
Did you notice his guarantee? He seems ok to me. ..4000 items sold and a dozen NF's ain't bad odds in the ebay arena. Some people post NF before contacting seller. -
Miles Davis Blackhawk Vinyl Set Arrived!
wolff replied to Out2Lunch's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
First one on the block!! Do you have the original vinyl also? I'd like to hear how they compare in a couple areas. Sometimes I play my stereo copy in mono because the piano is really stuck in one speaker(not uncommon for this time period) and it bugs me. I'm hoping the Mosaic presents a little more natural soundstage. It is a great record for Davis's trumpet and Mobley's sax. Can you still hear that guy yelling "Bravo" after the solos? -
Thanks for the bit of background. Yes, this album helps me relax quite nicely. I really enjoy his skill at playing lovely solos(title track) than funky on the next track. Nice recipe for sucess in my book. Always a good listen. Also, if you are still into vinyl, originals can be had for $20 or so. I got mine for $6.00 a year ago. Oh, never mind, vinyl is dead.
-
You are probably tired of ebay crap, but this looks like a great collection where many should go at bargain prices. Wish I would run into a collection like this at a garage sale. I do not know many of these titles. If any of you want to recommend some, that would be great. Thanks Nice collection
-
Thank you!! Yes, I have wondered about Gigolo, too. Have Liberty pressings of both(man, "Andrew!" is a great sounding LP) and had wondered if there was an ealier pressing of them(New York ).
-
What year was this LP released? Recorded in 1964, but was it released much later? Thanks
-
I can see them doing a Blue Note box, like they've done with other labels. The will take all the titles they've released and put them in a box. Probably one box mono and one stereo. If it also contained nice cover/liner notes and it would be pretty nice. They re-issued Heifetz's RCA Living Stereos..about 15 titles, why not Mobley or...?
-
I'm just going off memory from articles I've read over the years, so I could be off. Sony got or is still getting a nickel for every CD(it was their technology). Phillips gets $ for every CD player...some of the mechanisms are their technology. SACD is Sony's child. Interesting, hey? Follow the $$$ trail.
-
Twenty years after the death of vinyl I can still get more new and re-issued vinyl than I know what to do with. Even my kid can get his favorite bands on vinyl. So, 'obsolete' is the wrong term. There will be a small market for SACD and DVD-A as there is for vinyl, but most people could give a shi* about sound quality so the downloading technologies will continue to grow. If SACD/DVD-A were the same price as ceedees maybe it would be different. I believe Sony and Phillips will continue to push for a new format, because(I think) they no longer get a nickel for every CD made.

NAY! Among other things, I can't stand the tone/color of his tenor during this time...hard and lifeless to me. And those high pitched squeaks, yuck!
