@Whiskeyomega Love going back and listening to the first album just because it was (at the time) quite experimental (love me some Clint Eastwood and 19-2000) but the second one definitely sounds more polished.
There are tons of used Roach records in the bins here in Seattle this week. I think someone has dumped a big collection.
He is a master. Met him when I was in high school (like 1981 or 1982). He did a workshop with our jazz band and I was one of the 3 drummers. Great musical mind.
man i wet cleaned Side C after too much surface noise for black on A and B
what a difference !
It was already good.
This is like they're playing in my front room !
Always nice when the surface noise is non-existent. Cleaning the stylus halfway through a side because you wet cleaned the record gets tired really quickly.
I keep telling myself only got to do it once and they can stay in the inner sleeves.
Anyway. Nothing wrong with this pressing from "Record Industry" which was actually the wrong pressing I thought I had. So ive gone from being 1 of 14981 to 1 of 2913
I think more than any genre I am at the moment enjoying #reggae on #vinyl – also, I have so much still to discover here; to my shame I only vaguely knew this fantastic Birmingham (UK) band until recently.
one of the records I grew up with, courtesy of my budding trumpet player older brother, and still one of my absolute favourites, so I got myself my own copy.
One last listen before bed. Managed to remove the charity shop stickers put on before selling to some lucky sod for £4.
Can't beat Surface to Air in 45rpm in this 3LP promo edition.
