BigStewMan Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 2 hours ago, Full Range said: As promised Now spinning a monumental LP that needs to be heard without interruption Artist - YES Title - Relayer A 1974 UK pressing K 50096 Eddy Offord worked a lot with YES ... he engineered this album if I recall correctly. Some good ones and some not so good ones. Rick Wakeman says Tales From a Topographic Ocean was the reason that he left the band (one of the times). of course, Patrick Moraz is on keys for this recording; but I'm a Rick Wakeman fan ever since I tagged along with my big brother and his friend to the drive in movies back in the mid 70s and they were listening to Close to the Edge. Brought my kids to see Rick Wakeman once, they were so bored. To make matters worse, when the concert was over, they had to stay because we were going to meet the band after the show. I still tease my kids about that. They tell me "we were kids we'd like it more now." 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicroMara Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Switched the phonocardridge a few days ago. Since about a year I had the MI Grado Pestige Gold II in use as a pickup, now I have an MI from the head of development at Nagaoka, Mr. Osawa, working here. The absolutely first-class Osawa 301 . Plays in the league of my SA CD player with unbelievable much emotion. I have had this pick up in my collection for over 30 years. Good that I can now also play it from now on. This range is built and sold today under the product names Nagaoka MP 300 and MP 500 and cost between $ 690 - $ 890 each. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 So my first foray into something different than Aerosmith & Skynyrd & Ted was this one that I had heard when some of us were "expanding" our own dimensions. I hung onto this after I had let some of my other favorites go and was rewarded with some excellent staging of it all after I cleaned it up recently, got a couple pops but it does beat that mfsl cd by a decent margin when it comes to the sounds back here. If you know `em you know them. How do you like that Direct Metal Mastered Moving Pictures @Dave1290 Wish I could replace my whole RUSH collection with those they are so amazing! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Range Posted March 20, 2020 Author Share Posted March 20, 2020 I just had to play this new album - could not wait any longer It’s not a fully Prog album in my judgement but a mix of beautifully woven Prog and world music It’s very enjoyable at first listen but in reality it needs several listens to fully appreciate the intricate instrument interplay Artist - Steve Hackett Title - The Night Siren 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
