Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011
With 2012 almost upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

I think this old Hüsker Dü bassist has hit a jackpot. This is an awesome rock album. I am surprised the average ranking it is getting from reviews around.
Thanks for the recommendation. I haven't kept up with Bob's solo albums.

Apparantly i need to grow up as the Album title still makes me smirk!!
"Moanin" : The Japanese version that I bought in Tokyo. Sounds better than the RVG Edition that I bought recently.
John Lee Hooker - The Legendary Modern Recordings 1948-1954

Peter,
The Japanese reissues are generally excellent and I have a few that are a match if not better than the original RVG issues. Which company issued this LP? Toshiba-EMI?

Some Spliff black stuff.

Best stay clear of RvG remasterings, I find them sounding horrible!
Far more superior are the remasterings by Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray as on the Analogue Productions label (LP and SACD).
Vinyl
This brilliant black stuff is
on its first play for a while.
An oldie but goldie. If you are into Ryan Adams this is for you. A truly superb disc.I am on my second copy since it came out in 2005
Hi ewemon.
Thank you for the heads up on this one. It was waiting for me when i got in from work and it is all you say above 'A truly superb disc'. I think there is also a hint of John Hiatt in his voice.What do you know about Keith? Has he any more music out there to match this.
Regards Graham.
CD.
Aha!

Aleg,
I was referring to the RVG originals, not the RVG reissues of which I have no experience. The AP and Music Matters 45rpm remasters I agree are excellent. I have the MM issue of "Moanin" which is superb.
