Wheel of Names Collection Playthrough #260

Going with a pic of the back of the album instead of the cover, just cause its so damn weird to see Cooley smile. And to see EZ-B clean shaven.

Switched out a lower quality interconnect with a new Cardas cable between TT and phono preamp. Might as well play something I know well. . Definitely some subtle improvements. The latest Tracy C pressing is holding up well.

Break-in time (it’s real) takes forever between tt and phono pre with the microscopic signal levels there but, you already know that. It will just get better with time, though. Enjoy!

It will take countless hours time and dedication but I’m up for the challenge.

Seeing comments and videos from folks, people really dislike three sided records and there is subset that really hates etchings.

I’ve seen people say etchings can cause warps

 

[MikeH]

PS: The amount of deadwax on this is absurd, @MikeH would not be impressed….


…sounds divine though!

How’s it compare to the other KG or BG cut? I assume you had some prior pressing

Sing Street - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack


Fantastic little film, with a killer soundtrack to match.

I didn’t like the KG cut. The in house optimal cut was average. The BG was good but I’ll have to weigh it against this again. This was very clean and detailed.

Pharoah Sanders - Shukuru
Pure Pleasure reissue (2022)

The Strokes - Is This It

 

[LeeVing]

Black Sabbath – Paranoid
Rhino Records/Warner Records – RHF1 3104, 1970/2025

I was a bit late for the numbered version, but I'm fine with the un-numbered.

Someday I'll compare with the versions I have, but just spinning it now I think it beats what I have....which follow -
1970 German Vertigo - not the best condition, I got it cheap for the Vertigo label mostly, but I don't really mind that it has some noise.
1977 US reissue - Jacksonville pressing - I don't remember how this sounds
2006 Rhino - KPG @ ATM - pretty much my listening copy since I got it in 2006
2015 Rhino/VMP - KPG @ ATM repress - didn't really need it, but the FOMO got me

Cut by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio
Pressed at Optimal

Love Leon Thomas’s vocal style.

Love Leon Thomas’s vocal style.

Me too! Outside of his many collaborations with Pharoah, I somehow just recently learned he was the vocalist on Santana’s Lotus live album after hearing that album many times

Cause I wanted to listen to it last night, but it was late…

Neil Young + Crazy Horse - Fuckin’ Up
