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:

Quality is pretty good Graham. Good flat, well centred, silent pressing. As usual there is static on removing from the sleeve but this was sorted with a spin on the RCM. Lovely music. SQ of this issue is about 4/5 compared to an original issue but the original is a bit worn and noisier. An enjoyable listen. Good value for less than £15. Thanks go again to Stu for the heads up on this.

Analogue Productions 45RPM AcousTech vinyl reissue.

 

An LP my son kindly brought back for his Dad from the US.

 

I have a '70s pressing of this fabulous blues album and the SQ of this analogue remaster is so much better. Delmark recordings were never of the highest quality but you would never believe it with this album. On my earlier pressing the harmonica could sound a little shut in but it opens out on this record. These 45RPM albums cost more than single LP reissues, about £32 (in the US), and I am very careful about which albums I purchase in this format but I'm pleased with this. 

I will post a more detailed review on the other thread when I've had a few plays.

An Acoustic Evening At The Vienna Opera House

Is this any good?

Acoustic Sounds 45RPM. Another brought back from the US by my son. This was a recommendation from Peter Swain and a good one it is too. Beautiful music and superb SQ. It's quite a long record with each side averaging about 12 minutes.

This is on the same 'Back To Black' label pressing as the new Sandy Denny record,

so should be good too.

 

Amazon.uk £14.95  (The price has started to rise so hurry if you want one!)

i had a listen to Animalism and liked it enough to order one of the 300 limited edition LP's.

 

A good price too for £9.99 + £2 delivery : )

Hi Debs,

 

I played the Animalism FLAC download on my phone earlier and thought that the Synths & Guitars would sound really good on the full rig. If you want to try something different, then look at the last CD I bought by TILT Brass. That will also give the system a work out.

I've never heard any Steven Wilson before but a customer bought this in yesterday for a demo so I couldn't resist picking a copy up for myself, fantastic sounding vinyl, also bought the 24 bit and Blu Ray as the 5.1 mix is supposed to be excellent.
