What's Spinning

Grant Green - Talkin' About (Blue Note, 1965 First Mono Pressing)

I can never get bored of Grant Green's playing, so infectious and funky!

These reissues are mega!

There's noticeable weight to them.

There's noticeable weight to them.

There is, I really like the mastering job they’ve done and the backdrop is pitch black letting the music shine through.

Michael Kiwanuka- Love & Hate


I’m a late adopter when it comes to Michael Kiwanuka- about 6 months ago I heard his Song Exploder episode and instantly fell for his voice. I had heard not so great things about this pressing but honestly my copy sounds pretty great - his voice is up front in the mix and it’s also dead quiet.

PJ Harvey - Is This Desire? - Demos

R.E.M. - Green

Amy Winehouse- Back to Black (deluxe edition)

I know a lot of people are wondering if this half speed mastered deluxe edition is better than the universally panned regular edition that’s been out for years and my answer is yes? I mean, it doesn’t sound fantastic but it does sound better than the other version I have, plus the songs on the bonus disc are nice to have.

Yeah, the standard was, from my recollection, pretty appalling and this is miles better but it’s no audiophile masterpiece. I’ll be honest and say that’s likely not possible from the recordings, I don’t think they’re stellar.

My thoughts exactly. I’m pleased with this and it’s definitely an upgrade!

Agreed.
