What was the last vinyl you bought?

Posted by: apye! on 18 January 2011

As the original post is no more I thought I would start a new one.

Arrived today in the post:

He's got some buzz going so curious to see what this boy wonder does.

This is a Linn's 45RPM super cut ( whatever this means ). Their Mozart pressing sounds fabulous so I expect the production value to be decent.

I had the chance to listen last night.  Quite good.

This completes my Maurice White era E,WF vinyl collection.

Mono on 2 LPS-45 RPM.  I have an original mono pressing in less than pristine but still decent shape.  Looking forward to seeing how the Mofi compares.

 

I am wondering about this new version. I have an original US stereo and the mono Sundazed issue and would be very interested to hear how you have got on with this - but it's a lot in the UK. I would have preferred them to have done a 33 1/3 version on a single disc.

It arrived today.  Hopefully I will get a chance tomorrow to do a comparison.  I too have the Sundazed.  I prefer the original in that comparison.

I wonder how it fairs compared to the Classic Records reissue?

I've decided not to buy 45 rpm LPs I don't want to get up every 2-3 songs. Besides the band on my Palmer is very very thin.  I have broken some in the past.  I'm just enjoying all the new heavy vinyl that's coming out, really spectacular sound.

Paul Rodges - Live at Hammersmith Apollo 2009 - improved hugely when turned the wick up a few notches. Not too keen on the thin white vinyl, but music good - voice still seems to be holding up after all the years!

I had a big splurge on the following during my trip to York last weekend:

10cc - How dare You!

Kate Bush - Lionheart

Elvis Costello and the Attractions - Armed Forces

Ian Dury - New Boots and Panties

The Eagles - Hotel California

Led Zeppelin - 1

Love - Forever Changes

Joni Mitchell - Blue

Joni Mitchell - The Hissing of Summer Lawns

Van Morrison - Astral Weeks

Pink Floyd - A Nice Pair

Santana - Abraxas

Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell

Television - Marquee Moon

We don't have a record shop where I live, except a small selection in the local HMV. I'd forgotten how enjoyable browsing through racks of LP's is. I've just got to wait for my dealer to get rid of an annoying hum from my record player (see My First Naim System)

Just arrived today from Switzerland, ordered directly from Friday Music. Double LP pressed by RTI on white vinyl. Looks very nice, and am pleased with the price (£38) considering this is going for silly money at the mo'.

19 LPs from a mate who is getting rid of his collection. Including some Kraftwerk, Amon Duul II and Can which I had been looking for for some time.

Leatherette - Refresh

Not new but NM. Plays great. 

If anyone else has this album can you tell me if the mix balance is very much to the left?
