    Vinyl Me Please Anthology

    If you want to play a fun game then go through this document and count how many GZ pressings you have in your collection that match the “NOK” description. I’m thinking we could set it up like an N&G bingo card, just we all lose in the end...

    The Kleiber Beethoven 7th, in particular, is by consensus considered a reference recording of this work, and on most good to great systems sounds like you’re sitting 10th row center in the Wiener Musikverein (considered by many the best sounding orchestral concert hall in the world).

    Unfortunately, it is worth it. That thing is demo quality and on my list of couple dozen records to have me, my wife and kids grab if the house ever catches fire…

    The Good Ol' Grateful Thread

    Wow. I threw out several dozen tapes (maybe a hundred or two) when we sold our last car with a cassette player. I could have put down a nice down payment on a new car had I known that was the going rate, and I had some tapes with much more intricate artwork…

    Wonder when the last time that hand was washed!?! Just the thought of that had touching my vinyl collection gives me the heebie-jeebies…ugh….

    Off the top of my head I think I have the Bowie, a few Syd Barrets, DSOTM, and Band on the Run. All but the DSOTM are my go-to’s and at a fair price that DSOTM is still very good.

    EMI100 is my go-to, but it is getting rare and pricey.

    I have Ring footage of my USPS mail delivery person doing worse…. That is relatively tame compared to some things I have seen local USPS do.

    Well this is what mine look like (plus the records were warped) and this is what I was told: "Hi Mark, Thanks for your business and for reaching out! Unfortunately, these cosmetic damages that often occur due to rough handling by carriers on their journey to you are largely out of our...

    They most likely will not let you cancel. LITA’s customer service is the worst. I ordered the 2FTV/3FTV bundle a few years ago. Both arrived extremely damaged and with warped LPs. I contacted LITA and they basically told me they had no control over USPS or the pressing plant and would do...

    I prefer the 33. (Actually I prefer the Classic 45 cut by BG, 2nd is the AP33 - uses the Classic plates, and 3rd is the "new" TML AP45 cut. Not sure why they did not recycle the Classic 45 metalwork for this one.)

    The AP 33 and 45 Time Out are both from the Classic plates.

    It was a joke. But that said, I have not done the comparison on S&R, but I have on Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty and there is no contest that the MoFi’s are significantly better. However, I appreciate the ability to have the Plangent digital versions and I don’t discount how great all...
