What's Spinning

The agutierrezb 2019 record collection challenge

So I've decided to embark on my own personal challenge, which consists of listening every record in my collection before the end of the year. My record collection is not that big -only ~250-, but I still feel like there are a bunch of records I don't give enough attention to, while still adding more titles to my shelves.

For this reason I've set a couple of rules in order to play every record at least once before December 31st: I'll play at least one record a day, going from front to back in the way I have them sorted in my shelf. I can play a different record (i.e. Not the next one in alphabetical order) if I feel like listening to something else in any given moment, but at least one of the records I spin in the day has to be the LP in turn.

I didn't take pictures for the first two days, but I'll try to document the process from here on, so I'll be posting daily on this thread. Wish me luck!

What did you think? Animals is definitely my favourite Floyd and I still need to pick it up but I heard really good things about the remasters.
So...this was the hardest A/B test to date. They were very similar but the original press won out just slightly. It was a bit more clear and dynamic in the bass range.
It was strange...on the remaster side B sounded better than A. If you can find an original at a good price then go for it. If not the remaster would do just fine.
