I think the 45 RPM Nashville Skyline is great for the reason that if I put a 6 minute side on, I'm going to listen pretty intently!

buying from them can be either a frustrating or a wonderful experience but they have so much stuff that only they stock in these parts. That said if youre in Scotland and he has a physical store thats not too far away (he’s near Larkhall) maybe that would reduce the randomness of some of the encounters they you can have with him. Its not cheap though, £64.99, although that less than I’ve paid importing from the US by the time you add postage and customs.

I recently got the 33 of New Morning and it sounds great + don't have to flip it that much haha. I understand I'm just extremely lazy. I do tend to put records on while I am working at home now though and the having to stop and flip the record every 6-10 min isn't very conducive.

I definitely get it, and Nashville Skyline is such a short album to begin with - you could easily have made an audiophile 33rpm pressing.

I feel like it's gotten a much higher profile in the past few years which is great. Planet Waves is pretty underrated too. No one ever talks about it and it features The Band FFS

I’ve been taking a deeper dive into Dylan, The Band and Grateful Dead lately. The Dylan mono box got me started and VMP anthology gave me the impetus to start listening to the Dead. spent some money to make my own anthology of sorts recently thanks to the suggestions of the fine folks on this forum!

So underrated that I somehow forgot about it while racking my brain for comps lol. And I’ve listened to it plenty and enjoy it. Semantically, it may be more underrated because it doesn’t have the prestige that Oh Mercy does as the Dylan is back again album—dude has been around so long he has like 5 of these lol. I think it’s the first classic album since Desire, though I enjoy some of Slow Train and I’m not ashamed to admit it. I’d say Oh Mercy is better, but argument can be made Planet Waves is more underrated since it gets lost under BOTT and Before the Floo
Thats awesome. Some of the most important and talented American artists of all time. Luckily for Dylan and the Dead, it’s almost impossible to run out of new stuff to listen to. The Band obviously had a significantly smaller output, but their first few records and their live albums are stunning.

I think that’s why I had never really checked out much of the Dead stuff or Dylan’s later work. Both discographies just seemed so vast and I had no clue where to start. Weirdly enough someone had posted the Day of the Dead box set in one of the monthly challenge threads I think (before the VMP dead announcement) and I checked it out and found that I knew more Dead songs than I realized. So it’s been fun going through some of their actual albums. The past month or two has been full of listening to the Dead, Neil Young, Dylan and just starting to listen to more of The Band.

Next up Neil Young. He fits in nicely with that group and I noticed a lack of Neil in your discogs collection. That's a rewarding rabbit hole to travel down.

Yep—he actually got me started down the classic rock wavelength these past few months. Been streaming a lot of his albums lately. Have a few on my wantlist to pick up on vinyl but the digital streaming also sounds really good. I’ve been eying some more of his stuff though on vinyl so might pull the trigger on some in the next month or so.

He is a hardcore audiophile too. He even had a short lived digital music service/player he designed because he hated MP3's so much.

Oh yea I remember all about Pono haha. I’m also glad a lot of the reissues he has done in the past few years are all affordable and really good quality from what I have so far. I think Homegrown sounds great on vinyl and recently got Harvest from his archive series.He is a hardcore audiophile too. He even had a short lived digital music service/player he designed because he hated MP3's so much.
