  1. RVG, mono, not my Max favourite one, but some great playing in it.
  2. Does it mean they will realese the vinyl set of the Jack Johnson session? I try to see the good face of the reality.
  3. Can't say I've ever come across these guys. You should, they deserve a try. Funny, Funky and Heavy stuff. P.S. They're very popular in Betelgeuse
  4. Inspired by the Beatles White Album thread I dig for it in my shelves. I knew I have a copy.
  5. Do you know SEX MOBS DOES BOND? Not an Lp, but...nice stuff anyway.
  6. That's the problem, I don't think Dick reached Borges, Calvino and Kafka. BTW Borges, Calvino and Kafka wrote together less pages then Dick. I mean I don't blame Dick for it, on the other hand Dostojevskji wrote thousands pages pushed by debts, but...a perfect page is a hard, long and underpayed job. Borges hated long novels, he couldn't wrote long books. Kafka wrote three unfinished novels, because he wasn't satisfied about them, and a lot of perfect short stories. One thing I have to say in favour of Dick: he deserves a higher rank in american literature history, for sure a couple of steps above Hemingway. Fuck the Nobel Prize.
  7. Just stumbled in this thread. After reading the whole Dick's works in my last fifteen years, I couldn't remember a perfect single novel. All of them are whorthing of interest: great ideas, sophisticated psychological issues inside them, but... BTW The Ridley Scott movie is great. And I found it more interesting that the paranoid novel. Maybe the problem is that Dick was overwhelmed by his personal psych to achieve a detached 'perfect novel'. The very same problem I have.
  8. I prefer Red Clay to Straight Life, but both are worth hearing. No strings - there are pretty much straight-ahead dates of their era. I also like Keep Your Soul Together with Junior Cook. Agree. Red Clay is the best of the bunch.
  9. I knew you were from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, Ford Prefect! I'll cheer with a Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters.
  10. It could be, it's well known that at least one alien from Betelgeuse lived in England for a while.
  11. That AT album is a smoker, isn't it? Of course, the Hill album isn't exactly chopped liver either. Yep, the AT is an excellent album. Very under-rated ! And hard to find!! at human prices
  12. I still think that Picasso's sketches are better investments. BTW Would you play a 3.3 K record on your deck, or would you put it in a safety? For me records are for playing.

    Mono cartridge

    That makes sense, but, after 1968, mono pressings were basically only fold-out promos for FM radios. And recent mono reissues, like Classic, are obviously out of this thread, though they claim that their mono records are cutted with a true mono system. A dedicated mono system would be nice, and I am sure it would sound great, but, as somebody pointed out, it's a matter of cost and place. For what I have i doubt I could build up a decent mono front-end for less 1000/1500 $.

    Mono cartridge

    $ 177 for a Denon DL 102, a true mono, incl. shipping! Or......You are driving a very cheap car. Plus $$$ for a TT, $$$ for an arm, $$$ for a phono stage, $$$ cable, the grand total is... ...w/o considering the place for them.
  15. Tenor Conclave Prestige 50th label, with Trane, Hank, Al e Zoot
  16. Does it worth the extra money for vinyl (cover a part ) or is it the usual italian digital cut on vinyl? Actually I don't know if it exists in cd.
  17. Of wich sex?
  18. When I type Mosaic Record on eBay I always find something like this http://cgi.ebay.com/Mood-Mosaic-12-Mondo-P...1QQcmdZViewItem After all these years... they almost got me.
