Yesterday was St Patrick Day, I had a couple of pints of Guinness at the Irish pub in front of my home.
I am a bit late now but:
THE POGUES - Rhum Sodomy And The Lash - Stiff Records
Masqualero 'Aero', ECM
Every time I put the stylus on a ECM vinyl I am surprised how dead silent they are, outstanding german technology. I think they are better then JVC.
BTW on 'Bert And John' there is a a great 'Goodbye Porky Pie Hat'. Those were times, when folk and rock musicians were looking at 360°, jazz, blues, classical, avantgarde,ecc.. Today's rockers look only at Beatles or Zeppelin.
I fully agree with Claude: the Pro-Ject Debut IS the new TT and, at least in Europe, a good old Thorens IS the used TT.
I had a long and happy relationship with a TD 166 with a Sumiko Blue Point before my today's Linn.

I think they should cancel it because of the howful match they played with Italy, and I am not a believer of greatness of today's italian team. Even more if you consider that our best player, Totti, is out for a serious accident.
I always used poly inner sleeves similar to the early Mosaic or Mobile Fidelity Original Master Sleeve. I bought them from Acoustic Sound, just placed some pack in the vinyl orders. Now they discontinued it. Have you got a good source for buying them on the web, or similar sleeves?
