Anyone have a line on Pharoah Sander - Izipho Sam? It was in my Plaidroom cart and then sold out during check-out. I've been furiously searching the web for other sellers for the last 30 minutes.

And…technically could sound worse if there’s an issue that needs to be caught (thus a “test pressing”). More than likely it sounds the same (TP is approved) or sounds worse (TP is rejected for an issue). It is extremely rare that you get a LZII/RL situation where a better sounding pressing is...

Try CC24WMX15

My understanding is that this is a digital master.

Definitely excited about The Bright Mississippi. The album has a who’s who of New Orleans musicians playing some beautiful music. It also has great sound and imaging (I’ve used this as a demo disc and to audition new speakers). Really looking forward to what RKS can do with this one.

I have heard an OG a few times, but it was probably VG at best and I have a fairly low tolerance for surface noise. I also was not able to directly compare it to my Alto. If you can find a clean OG at a reasonable price it is probably a good pickup. I bought the Alto new, but these prices now...

I have the record, which sounds fantastic. I assume Chad wasn’t able to find the metalwork, which is why he did a DSD needledrop. This is one of those “pry it out of my cold dead hands” pressings. I may check out the HDTT transfer. I have a few things from them which are really well done...

That Jamal record is quite good, but this one sounds like you’re sitting in the front row. https://www.discogs.com/release/5132790-Ahmad-Jamal-Ahmad-Jamals-Alhambra

I expect that if I ever check out a “local” Wilco show again it will be in Austin or Dallas. The curtailed second set and perfunctory “imagine we walked off stage” encore summed things up for the night.

Yes, also thou shall not check thy phone at anytime (especially if any well known sporting events are occurring at the same time as the concert). Again… learned the hard way (Wilco’s 2019 Houston gig in the midst of an Astros playoff run).

I highly recommend the new Cat Power Sings Dylan album. I have the clear vinyl edition cut by BG and it sounds great. (Plus the album/music is great, as well.) It has been in heavy rotation here since the holidays.

The Otis sounds great. No issues with the vinyl, as well. Dock of the Bay is the best Ive heard and I have most of the reissues from the last 10-20 years.

Not necessarily true…

Cheers. Happy New Year!

Thanks @TenderLovingKiller® I took a $16 flyer on this and it worked out. All 4 sides playback for me without any skipping (a little surface noise in places, but not bad...).

Noice…. Happy Birthday! Love the Laphroaig. I’ll have a pour of the Quarter Cask for you. How is the sherry oak finish?

If anyone got an extra Albert King from the TBT please pm me. I was in a workshop in the office yesterday and these were long gone by the time I hit the website.

I still think the MMW Tonic album on Blue Note would make an incredible Tone Poet. I have no idea if the recording is analog or digital but it sounds great and the playing is fantastic. Would love to hear what Kevin Gray could do with it on vinyl.

I thought I got them all (and some more) but during the course of the last 24 hours I’ve received emails saying that stores had oversold their allocations, so I’m back looking for the MMW and the Jazz Dispensary comp at reasonable prices.

Thanks to the member that helped point me toward several of these! Still looking for the Nuggets box. Does anyone have a line on that one?
