George Harrison - "All Things Must Pass" (1970)

@benthos @cherold @vinylrecords Get Back itself is a selection of moments, a version of what happened. Apparently the original Naga tapes painted a less neutral picture of Yoko’s influence. This book is a fascinating look at the last days of the Beatles.

djdogfish,

@benthos @Weru @vinylrecords Agreed. The strength of some of the material overcame Spector's ham fisted production.

sharongascoigne,

Postie has just delivered some new #vinyl

I'm banning myself from buying any more for at least a month.
I purchased this on the strength of one listen on Spotify. It's a superb record which totally captivated me.
The Harmony Codex by #StevenWilson

sharongascoigne,

@Doony @urlyman Wow! Thank you for sharing that. I've not seen it before.
Everything about this album is spellbinding.

sharongascoigne,

@Nick You're such a bad influence Mr Fergsuon 😅

Flaming Lips Greatest hits 1 Limited Edition Gold @vinylrecords

TheVinylApe,
@TheVinylApe@masto.ai avatar

@Whiskeyomega @vinylrecords This album suffers from the licensing blues. I understand that “hits” would most likely come from Warner’s records, but there’s stuff pre Hit To Death that artistically, absolutely should be on here. Especially some things from Priest Driven Ambulance.
But this is a killer Lips introductory course, for sure.

, großartig. Das Debut der Heavy Metal Band aus Philadelphia ist von 2016. Sumerlands haben 2022 ihr zweites, ebenfalls großartiges, Album „Dreamkiller“ veröffentlicht und sind damit im US Underground gut etabliert.

We’re ‘A Song For All Seasons’, released in 1978 by Renaissance - their last great album before it all started to go south.

@icastico @vinylrecords HAHAHA!
I saw your comment and was like WHAT?!?!
Then I saw what I typed.
Must have had Sandy Denny on my mind. Either that, or I have a concussion.
Sandy Bull’s version of Carl Orff’s “Carmina Burana” is my favorite performance of that piece ever.

Only put this on to test out the bass on Skipping Like A Stone that I had a problem with clipping my headphones badly. As it turns out it was the acrylic slipmat causing the bass to sound compressed and focused which caused the clipping. Back to felt and I've never heard this album properly until now.
Got both the white 2LP as its rare and the 3LP 45rpm Boxset which this is. Which on average is 7 mins a side.

@geekgirl397 @vinylrecords Its about 5 months old this album. How come you mention Anna Meredith ? its a bit spooky as I was thinking of putting on fibs again. The soundtrack shes just done isnt on vinyl annoyingly at least yet anyway.

@Whiskeyomega
We recently got into Anna Meredith after being gripped by Nautilus on the soundtrack of the Paul Rudd sitcom "living with yourself" (really good BTW if you haven't seen it) & also noticing it on the soundtrack of French Netflix "Black Butterflies"

I was obsessed with The Pink Opaque ca. 1986 and I would have many things to contribute to this work.

I mean, after all, it is the chocolates on the juicer.

It's important to have a good sized bag that qualifies as a "personal item", separate from the carry-on bag. It's remarkable how much you can fit under a seat. 💺

TheVinylApe,
@TheVinylApe@masto.ai avatar

@benthos @vinylrecords I travel very light. I never check baggage. Ever.

So, I take a big duffel bag for the overhead, which I lay a sweatshirt across the bottom in.
I take the 10-15 records I usually find and wrap them in a pillowcase, and make sure they’re snug and secure, and then put the clothes I DIDNT leave behind and neatly elastic them individually, rolled up, and lay them on top. It’s heavy….but always the right size.
Been doing this for 30 years. 😂

SpeedStar76,

@gnitro thank you!

sharongascoigne,

Apparently today is Carl McCoy's birthday so I thought I'd spin some in his honour.

There's quite a few crackles on this old one!

sharongascoigne,

@bernd @Probertd8 I haven't seen them play since 1990 (I guess). I've watched a few recent videos on YouTube. I always enjoyed seeing them live.
First time for me was at Reading Festival in 87.

witewulf,

@sharongascoigne corking tunes from one of my favourite bands.

Sadly never got to see them live. I did see McCoy’s spin-off industrial project, Nefilim, but they were rotten. Felt quite sorry for them, though, as they had zero audience reaction until they played a load of Fields of the Nephilim tracks late on in the set.

Finally! Proposal for a :

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DaNNYA1qnSCVZpwrgLx_HAlzq0Sn8UlINbmUeLkUwVw/edit?usp=sharing

You're seeing it before almost anybody else in the world. So be kind, if you like

As I said, I'm hoping to work with a few folks from sound so it's not just me, now that I've done some of the heavy-lifting

There it is if that link works. Should be read-only now. I don't really know how google docs works

@AccordionBruce

Is there a "Sitting dog looking left" emoji? Because I have an idea for a pairing...

AccordionBruce,
@AccordionBruce@mastodon.social avatar

@jgamble
OMG! I should add that to the proposal

Probably + 🐶 would be closest

is working on a scheme to have emoji be reversible so you can make sure all the police-cars are chasing the right surfer instead of the other way 'round or whatever

So if you had a sitting dog, that might take care of the issue

But I don't know what other dog: 🐕 Dog2; 🐕‍🦺 Service Dog; 🦮 Guide Dog; or 🌭 Hot Dog; would fit as well as 🐶 for ol' Nipper

Late night Takk. First vinyl I bought this. Just checking a side as I had a hot EQ check against a too bassy Chemical Brothers album.

Anyway. Top 5 album this and unusually for Krunk didn't need a clean before it playing.

Finally summoned up the courage and energy to relocate the loudspeakers in our living room to where they should be. On stands and firing at my ears. Daughter ‘helped’ me and is now old enough not to destroy them I think

Weather station at the National Weather Service Oxnard (NWS Los Angeles) recorded 2.71 inches of rainfall today, Dec. 21, 2023. That breaks the old record of 0.75 inches set in 1945. (!!!!)

@ai6yr Silver Strand had 6 inches of rain in the last 24 hours. It's been wild... and still going!

jd_d,
@jd_d@hostux.social avatar

@east @vinylrecords
Wow , what is it like ?
I'm just trying to figure it from the terrific sleeve.
My best guess is 'satanic hardcore deep spiritual jazz'

east,
@east@cupoftea.social avatar

@jd_d @vinylrecords I wish haha. It's mostly psychedelic rock / garage rock on an album called Data Doom by a band called Frankie and the Witch Fingers. Definitely a fan of that sleeve & pressing.

Archie8,

Just been listening to the excellent Fine Young Cannibals first album from 1985

This CD is 38 years old and plays flawlessly but then so does the 37 year old chrome cassette I bought yesterday

It leads me to make a controversial observation

Vinyl records are the worst physical format aren't they 🤔

I say this as the owner of several hundred records but it's true isn't it

I certainly don't own a record from the 80s that plays flawlessly

I doubt anyone does 🤔



Galley,
@Galley@mastodon.online avatar

@Archie8 SACD should be number one. 😉

Archie8,

@Galley I've got all three formats in large numbers but listening to that 1985 CD really made me think how we perceive sound quality through rose tinted glasses with vinyl. It just isn't very good 😬
