What's Spinning

[POGunter]

1981 US Carrollton Pressing. Journey- Escape. Almost like a whole early’80s jukebox on one album. .

Heilung - ᛚᛁᚠᚫ: ᛁᚩᛏᚢᚾᚷᚬᚱᛞ = Lifa: Iotungard (Heilung Live At Red Rocks Amphitheatre) - This had to have been a fun concert. Great sounding live album.

Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend: Quinquennial Celebration
Team Coco repress (2024)

Worth owning? I don’t know, but I’m enjoying it

 

[D Jilla]

it is not

it is the 2014 -- this one https://www.discogs.com/release/5769796-Alice-Coltrane-A-Monastic-Trio/

I have this one too and it sounds quite good. I don’t have an OG, but have other Alice OGs and Impulse OGs and it sounds pretty close. I didn’t even consider picking up the new Turd Man pressing.

Kate NV - Room for the Moon



I'm surprised she didn't appear as a recommendation across any streaming avenue/YouTube recommendation until I came across last year's WOW, which was one of my top50 last year. But when digging back several years searching on the forum, I see that someone recommended this one for those who like Tortoise's TNT. I can hear a few similarities, but they are very different.
Either way, this would have been in my top50 for 2020 had I known about it at that time. Kate makes exactly the kind of angular, obtuse brand of pop that I enjoy.

Well if you had made it clearer to me how much I liked Alice earlier, I might have two less third man pressings (jk, thanks, also not really kidding but not frothy about it)

 

[Nee Lewman]

I’m posting this again because I really fucking love it… @Hemotep you should give it a listen.*

Sorry/not sorry! Alice is still Alice, in any format - glad they’re getting her stuff back in print either way and glad you’ve been picking it up

Alice Coltrane - A Monastic Trio

This is the new VBR. Kev Reeves cut. Of the three of the series I have, this is the most dynamic. It still doesn’t sound “right.” Like the piano isn’t as rich or full as I would expect. It also seems like what ever tape was used was wrecked like they should give it to Peter Jackson. The vinyl seems flat and there is no vinyl surface noise just some tape hiss.

Full disclosure this is not a dedicated listen and I hope to give it a headphone listen tonight. I also have no other pressings to compare it to. Would give it a B-.

Edit… just got to side two and it has a slight dish warp.
