What's Spinning Tonight?

I picked up four new LPS tonight after work. You have to love the title of the new Joe Walsh LP, "Analog Man."DSC02746.jpg
 
Patricia Barbar - Verse @45rpm -Original Master Recording
Radiohead - I Might Be Wrong - Live Recordings vinyl
Keirh Jarret -Still Ailive -ECM Pressing
 
Lloyd, That's an interesting question. My recollection of the UK CD, which I also own, is that they are actually fairly similar. The original recording IMO isn't that great to start with...it was a CBS production and I think that says it all.
The MFSL is superior to the US standard pressing and it does have its great points. To me, the MFSL is the way to go, simply because I think you get better packaging and If I remember it has a little more top end extension than the UK re-issue ( BUT that's about it). I think it's a brilliant piece of music. Which leads to me an interesting point, my sister-in-law brought up: This music isn't the kind of thing that the newer generation will likely take to....because it doesn't lend itself to the "quick download" that is so popular with them. You do have to listen to the whole CD from start to finish to get what the message is...something that isn't that popular today.:(

Thanks Davey. And i agree...you have to listen all the way thru PF...Dark Side, Momentary Lapse, Final Cut, Wall...those are the ones i own. I actually listen all the way thru all my stuff anyway. very rare to stop and start. If i get my hands on a reasonably priced MFSL Walls, i may go for it...but til then, i'll enjoy UK version (and my MFSL DSOTM.) thanks.
 
-----Looks like The Wall

* Roger Waters was playing last night (The Wall) Live sur les Plaines d'Abraham in Quebec city. :b
Awesome show! ...With Quad Sound. ...Laser Lights. :cool:


Bob, that must have been an awesome show....Amazing that these guys wrote this over 30 years ago and at what age?

Lloyd, IF you can get your hands on a reasonably priced MFSL Wall, I would recommend it. I think you will like it. ( Although not so easy to do these days, But ?)
 
---Davey, I wasn't there but I did watch the news in French, and they showed some clips,
and with some people's commentaries.

Hello,

"The flying dutchman" live from Bayreuth on FM Radio. Just now!
A station in Montreal does it broadcast too.

Possibly you are lucky to get this station.

Currently listening to something I haven't listened too in a while...

Don't Laugh. At least it's not Whitney Houston...:D
 
Now off to something with a little bit more authority....Godsmack, "The Other Side". This is actually the album that changed my mind about the band. Good stuff!
