Dan Gould Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 I mistakenly picked up a VG+/VG+ copy of Magic Touch, a live recording of Magic Sam and Shakey Jake at Sylvio's in 1968. Black Top issued it CD format but I was foolish enough not to realize it, being 1500 miles away from my collection at the time. Here's a review of the recording (there are actually 14 tracks, not the 8 listed). Anyway, its a great LP but I don't feel like farting around with selling it on ebay. Its free to a good home - Media Mail included if the first respondent is in the U.S.; if the first respondent is from outside the U.S. I'll need compensation for shipping costs TBD. Grab a great recording and help my karmic balance! Quote
JSngry Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 Karma balanced yet? If not, I can help. Quote
kh1958 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 If I have not confused my live Magic Sam recordings, I believe this is the one that has the best fidelity. Quote
Dan Gould Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Posted January 13, 2012 Karma balanced yet? If not, I can help. If that's a request for the LP, its yours. Quote
paul secor Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 Real good record. Nice pick up for Jim and a generous gesture by Dan to pass it on. Quote
felser Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 I was foolish enough not to realize it, being 1500 miles away from my collection at the time. I am getting much more susceptible to doing that now, picking up things I already own. Especially since things are coming out in different formats and different labels for the same material so often now. And also because my racking has been in shambles for a few years now. Quote
Dan Gould Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Posted January 13, 2012 Well I'd have avoided the mistake if Black Top had used the same cover as the original vinyl - I know I would have recognized it. Oh well ... Quote
JSngry Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 I feel like the luckiest man in the world! Quote
Dan Gould Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Posted January 13, 2012 Hanging out here all the time has its benefits! I just hope the LP lives up to the hype the other guys have heaped on this one. (It is cool to hear Sam on some Junior Parker and Jimmy McCracklin tunes.) Quote
mikeweil Posted January 14, 2012 Report Posted January 14, 2012 Very generous! Didn't we have a giveaway thread at some point somewhere? I have some supspects lying around ... Quote
Dan Gould Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Posted January 14, 2012 We did - Pay It Forward iirc. But instead of searching for it I just posted my own. Quote
