What's Spinning

[D Jilla]

Collection playthrough #897

Heifetz / Munch / Boston Symphony Orchestra - Mendelssohn Concerto In E Minor / Prokofieff Concerto In G Minor
RCA Red Label (1959)

The oldest record I own. Sounds quite good considering its age - I bet I could get it close to silent if I ever pick up an ultrasonic cleaner.

Fresh Grab interlude
Waylon Jennings – Ol' Waylon

 

[Kris]

I’ve got this one on order. Sound good?

Yes, it does. They always do a good job on their vinyl releases. Mastered at Abby Road and pressed at Pallas Germany.

Don't forget to push the mono button! Sounds awesome, doesn't it? Which "S" do you have?

A few of my RSD orders have come in the past few days, so I'm finally spinning some records again...

I know I previously said I was going to stop chasing the "best" and just be content with what I already have, but I really wanted to hear if this reissue sounded better than what I have. The OP I have is a bit worn - sounds great, but a little too much surface noise for the type of music. The somewhat recent reissue from Real Gone Music was a disappointment - it was a crap David Cheppa/Rainbo release - and I let them know they wasted their time with it...and from their email response I think they agreed it wasn't a worthwhile release and they get stuck with whatever Warner Bros. gives them.

So far this sounds pretty good to me, no surface noise at all - and the bonus tracks are a great bonus.

The Rain Parade – Emergency Third Rail Power Trip
Label 51 Recordings – LAB 51009 RSD, 1983/2024

Spinning a CD:

My Bloody Valentine - EPs 1988-1991

No vinyl for this (unless you can get your hands on the actual EPs)

Ah, now I see where you’re pulling those from. Is that the stamper number or something?

I used to have a ready answer for that but it would be much easier, and way more informative, to Google rca 1S recording. History!

I can get into "stripped down" when it's done well, I enjoy this one

U2 – Songs Of Surrender
Island Records [5503448] - 2023
