  1. @Yuper Now the introductions are done I’m keen to see what’s in your record collection I started this thread to see what records other like minded people have and to catalogue the collection on Discogs Maybe something for you to follow So start spinning and post what you are listening to
  2. Glad you have joined us - like you I have never considered ever selling my record collection or my Garrard 401 Charge the young ones an entry fee 🤟
  3. Not sure if anyone is familiar with this artist I know that I had this album but can’t find it so it’s prosumed lost or lent out and not returned More info on the personnel that contributed to this album https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_Bottom_(album) So I will post a video
  4. From the album Nursery Cryme by Genesis
  5. My mother in-law has a pendant device that works on the mobile 4G phone network I think it’s called Medi Alarm here in Australia https://www.medialarm.com.au/ If anything happens we get a text message with the GPS location We can also speak to her in a limited way
  6. I would have a compilation album as one artist won’t be enough for me in the afterlife But alas - I have already purchased a grave plot and not getting cremated So I will take this idea and make a CD or a few CDs of my favourite music to place in my coffin 🤪
  7. We call the Rice Krispies Rice Bubbles They both snap cracked and pop
  8. Never tried these record uwwarp methods but it’s worth a try https://m.wikihow.com/Fix-a-Warped-Vinyl-Record
  9. Well first pressing is preferred She did not find any So she came back with canabis rheumatic rubbing cream instead 😃 for her mother
  10. This is the actual text I sent her Records— Look for LPs in Near Mint condition - First Pressing (not reissue) from the selection below Don’t spend to much or over $20 US GONG - You (Radio Gnome Invisible, Vol. 3 CAMEL - Mirage RUSH - 2112 or RUSH - Hemispheres DREAM THEATRE- Metropolis Part 2 PORCUPINE TREE - Fear of a Blank Planet
  11. Yes I spun it and compared it to my copy And I forgot to post the results - So that gives me a reason to do it again so it’s fresh in my mind 🤟
  12. My daughter just came back from a 4 week vacation to the USA - but just stayed in LA I gave her a list of 4 preloved Prog albums to look in out for - but she had no luck
  13. I tend to listen to Genesis and other prog albums in between other genres
  14. The platter rotates clockwise The tonearm angle rail body floats on air - But is a tangential type - so the tonearm / stylus always tracks on the centre line if you have Instagram please have have a look at the video on the second slide https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu0lEkugpGi/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=1lsolpackmujb Also here is a short YouTube video I have found
  15. Another treat on a balmy Sunday evening of great jazz This album gives me goosebumps in a great way I have read it was recorded in 3 days in 1960 The only description I can give this album is “;effortless and mesmerising” With only two extended tracks per side - and as the title suggests the first track is called My Favorite Things as per the movie The Sound Of Music - But way way better It’s another must listen to album Artist - John Coltrane  Title - My Favorite Things 
  16. You know The song Lola is still on commercial radio rotation I still hear it all the time
  17. Well it’s Saturday night in my neck of the woods and I have a treat for Jazz Blues fans A brilliant album that stands the test of time with some brilliant musical output from this perfect melding of musicians that formed this band  An album must listen recommendation to all ( and I don’t make to many ) a shout out to a jazz fan @Tigerman  Artist - Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers Title - Moanin’  
  18. I remember the movie To Sir With Love I think Sidney Poitier was the teacher
  19. I should inform tne gang on this thread on a slightly related subject Alice Cooper sent in a version on a title song for the 007 Bond movie The man with the golden gun But was not chosen instead they chose Lulu’s version
  20. In most cases it’s earth or poor connection Check clips Check dry solder joints ( due to age )
  21. That is the other way 😃 But if one does not have that service available close or purchasing records online then the DIY method is the only way I have a vacuum RCM and another manual bath brush knosti type The manual method is great if the records don’t require a deep clean
  22. Great album to listen to - love my copy 👌 ———————— The best way to manually clean records is a mix of Alchohol or Clear methylated spirits - up to 25% Window cleaner - up to 10% Dishwashing detergent - up to 5 drops per 500 mls Distilled water Mixed in a spray bottle Clean record grooves using the mix medium above with either White Magic sponge Paint Edge / trim applicator Then Whipe dry with clean/ soft microfibre cloth
  23. I was there myself on the 26th January also on a cruise 🚢 When I retire a world cruise is on the cards
  24. Both brilliant albums @cincymat 👌
  25. Let’s all head to the UK for the next LP Infact it’s Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 An alternative Indi rock band that built a healthy following mostly by word of mouth Artist - Belle & Sebastian Title - The Boy With The Arab Strap
