The Moody Blues





The Eagles - Hell Freezes Over Simply Vinyl



Disappointed in the quality of vinyl used in this pressing. Some surface noise on all 4 sides after two deep cleanings and risning with RO deionized water.

Jennifer Warnes - Famous Blue Raincoat



An original pressing I bought two years ago for $2.00 at the local public radio station fund raising sale of records, CDs, tapes, etc. Cover was in excellent condition and record was mint to NM. I can't believe someone donated it to the sale, but glad they did.

Try the dutch(Made in Holland) pressing of Geffen Records GEF-24725 from 1994.

It is a Sony digital recording from 1987 - really not bad for 16 bit/44.1 kHz - but ...

Hi Toni,

Thanks for the tip on the Dutch vinyl for Hell Freezes Over. I will look for one.

With repsect to your comment on Jennifer Warnes Famous Blue Raincoat, my copy is a 1986 Cypress Records pressing, 661-111, mastered by Bernie Grundman Mastering. The sleeve does say that it was recorded on Sony Digital Equipment. It sure doesn't sound like a 16/44.1 recording when compared to a friend's CD of the album. Do you know if the 45 rpm 20th Anniversary edition was cut from the same 1986 digital recording? Or were there analog tapes made of the studio recording as well as digital?

Thanks,

Laura

Just re-aligned my cartridge (shelter 501) and wow, AMANDA Never sounded better?  Now, wish there was a reissue!

Dear Lady Laura,

... the 20th Anniversary Edition (Cisco) was remastered by Bernie Grundman from
the old original analogue tapes of Famous Blue Raincoat plus 4 bonus tracks.
It's all-analogue !!!

Why did you quote the image?  Once was enough.

Rimsky-Korsakov - Scheherezade. London Symphony Orchestra. RCA LSC-2208. RCA shaded dog.
It's remarkable how little progress has been made in music reproduction.  This is a wonderful sounding record from 1958.

Lou Rawls - All Things In Time


I've always had a soft spot for Lou Rawls' wonderful singing voice.  Before
he broke through as a pop singer in the 1970s he was an accomplished jazz
singer, though success eluded him in the 1960s.  All Things In Time
hasn't aged particularly well and the songs easliy peg the album to the mid
1970s.  Still, as a 50 year old who occasionally waxes nostalgic for the 70s
it was nice to hear this album again.


The Rolling Stones - Voodoo Lounge


IMO the best Stones album since Tattoo You.


Ella Fitzgerald - Sings the George and Ira Gershwin Song Book, Volume 2


Speakers Corner 180g reissue


Judy Garland - Judy




Nat King Cole - Just One Of Those Things
