Parkertown

Miles Davis Plugged Nickel Lp set. Just got this in the mail yesterday. I won this from eBay; a partial, new unplayed set with box & booklet. Has 8 of 10 records, missing Records 1 & 5. List price new was near $200 with the shipping. My cost: $96 shipped! I'm thrilled as it's perfect!

It's okay, Flatted 5th. No one ever listens to me either...

Happy belated Birthday, Tony!

Clapton's Crossroads. I still have mine.

Thanks guys...sorry if I was harsh...

And you get to see Bill's band-aid...

I thought he might be referring to this one: What the hell are you guys talking about? Label? Catalog number? The orange one pictured above is great, flat 200 gm vinyl from Classic Records. I think I got mine for around $45. It sounds fantastic, even with a 29 minute Side 1.

Belated Birthday wishes to you, jmjk! Hope it was a good one and congratulations on becoming a father.

Happy Birthday!

Cecil Taylor - Conquistador - French Pathe Marconi pressing. Very nice and totally quiet vinyl.

King Crimson - In The Court of the Crimson King - UK 70's pressing. "I Talk To The Wind" is soooo beautiful...

My place is gonna look like that soon if I don't stop buying records!

King Crimson - In The Wake of Poseidon A first-time listen for me.

Happy Belated Birthday, GoM!

Sorry for being late, but Happy Birthday Dmitry! Enjoy the toy.

Belated Birthday wishes to Brandon. I've been checking in less as well...

Ah, geez... RIP Steve.

Hey, I just got an email from themusic.com . They're having this item on sale for $50. themusic.com is the retail branch of Classic Records.

I use this one, also found on that acoustic sounds page. Here's the direct link: http://store.acousticsounds.com/browse_det...ction=equipment You lower your stylus into the element, and all the gunk and fuzz stays in the element. You then lift it out and it's super-clean! Love mine... The lid/cover is also a magnifying lens, allowing you to see your stylus clean and all the gunk stuck in the element. Can be washed and re-used indefinitely. But that price is too much. I got mine for $30 from some guy at audiogon. Perhaps elsewhere as well...

Now playing softly on the turntable: Surrealistic Pillow - Jefferson Airplane The Sundazed MONO reissue. Nice n dry compared to the reverbed-drenched stereo version.

Best wishes to Jim on his birthday.

"Yes, Mr. Connery! The sound a doggy makes"? "Moo." "That's not the sound a doggy makes..." "That's the sound your mother made last night...HAA, HAA, HAAAAA!"

Jimmy Smith - Groovin' at Small V.2 - Liberty Mono. The edge of the record has ridges, like on a dime. I think I have another Blue Note like this...

Donald Byrd - Fuego - Dark blue label
