I just can’t believe the draft is actually in Green Bay. Also can’t believe how big the draft has become in the last couple decades. I think I mentioned this before but I grew up in GB and my dad worked for the Packers for 40 years. I basically grew up in Lambeau and went to damn near every home...

Agreed! Just spun this morning and it’s awesome. Definitely going to be a late night go to.

I want this but do I need it? Emo comp on 30x7” from Numero Sequoia

Listening to this one today and it was a stealth Boom Boom cut! Very surprised by how good it sounds. Pretty out there at times though. https://www.discogs.com/release/25302943-%E3%81%82%E3%81%8C%E3%81%9F%E6%A3%AE%E9%AD%9A-%E4%B9%97%E7%89%A9%E5%9B%B3%E9%91%91

Just picked up Professor Longhair- Rock n Roll Gumbo 1985 reissue on Dancing Cat Records for cheap. I must say, it really sounds great. Bernie Grundman mastered it. https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/15942208 Never heard the original issue but can’t imagine it sounds better!

I ended up finding a place to order from online but thanks!

Dang that Patsy Cline album is elusive

I will say the Francoise Hardy set is very nice and probably the best the songs have sounded. It’s the first one I chose to spin. Jeff Powell cut it.

Probably the most excited I’ve been for RSD in a long while and it’s the first time I’ve actually been able to go out in about five years! Got about half of what I wanted but the prices seemed exceptionally high where I got them from in Fort Collins so I had to limit myself. Still pleased with...

The Tracy Chapman reissue is fantastic. Bernie Grundman cut. I’ll have to compare it to the OG which also sounds amazing but I haven’t had a chance to sit down and listen to both back to back.

Are the albums just repressings of what has been out the last decade plus? If so, dub sounds absolutely awesome. Love blasting it. I just never picked up any other ones when they were available. So I’m quite happy I’ll be able to get Beacoup Fish and Second Toughest now.

That album came out last year but I haven’t checked it. Also shipping is real expensive to the US. Hopefully these pop back up stateside in the coming months.

Funny you mention Occasional Rain. That is actually one of the few test pressings I have and can’t remember when or how I acquired it. Sounds great though! Just spun it again for the first time in a long while.

Same

Honestly, the RHF Ooh La La was slightly underwhelming to me. I’ll preface by saying that I’ve never owned a copy on vinyl but have listened digitally many times. I really think it’s down to the sound of the record, but some songs sound too wooly, lacking dynamics. I’ll have to check it again...
