Dave1291 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Time to ride or die! THAT was yesterday around my place. Rode that coaster once and it's killer. How's yer heart tough guys??? Mine was thumpin last night just like it was when I rode that thing... 60 miles north of me on the coast of Lake Erie here in Ohio. Bring your A game & the kids. I got the lodging covered here. Hour north to heaven or H3ll ! lol Being the tallest roller coaster and the first to top 300 feet wasn’t the only records broken when it opened in 2000. It debuted having the longest drop and the fastest speed topping out at 93 m.p.h. Ranking as one of the world’s best steel coasters year after year since its opening, this behemoth shoots riders over hills, past lagoons and through tunnels, all at unthinkable speeds. With its silhouette illuminated in the night sky, it’s hard miss the iconic coaster on the Cedar Point skyline. About the only way I can describe last evening. A roller coaster. I unzipped the Dom Martin lp's, quick eyeball and laid them here on the arm of the couch for later. Finally figured I'd throw them on for a listen. After I ordered them I'd heard them on youtube and thought this dude's act IS together. Little did I know HOW together. Turned on my "aura" over the table to take a quick photo for in here and filled my shorts. Signed? Personalized? WTF is going on here??? I didn't buy any signed copies so I hit the site to make sure. Nope. How? Why? It was going around in my head and I was loving it. So this dude tours then gets home and signs lp's for people randomly? Who knows but I'm forever grateful and WILL be sittin front row or preferably a tour case (it's cheaper and my rear fits one) when he hits the US. It was almost as nice when my youngest daughter walks in the door @ Christmas. Home from Phoenix. Just crazy! Forever grateful for him doing that. They'll be in Crate #2 of signed stuff. That way I'll know where to find them in this mess of lp's stacked everywhere. Dom Martin (29) is a Belfast born award winning singer/songwriter, inspired but not constrained by the blues. In the past 18 months he has burst onto the UK and European music scene with a unique guitar style and voice captivating the audience at every venue. His main influences are Rory Gallagher, Tom Waits, John Martyn, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Howlin Wolf and Muddy Waters. With five BBC Radio live sessions prior to a first album release, Dom impressed with his 2018 debut original EP “Easy Way Out” with BBC presenter Cerys Matthews describing his work as “absolutely wonderful stuff.” His debut album “Spain to Italy” was fully released on 4th December 2019 to critical acclaim and was an IBBA “Pick Of The Month” gaining airplay on around 100 stations globally. bluespowr.com - 'Spain to Italy is not just one of the best debut releases we’ve heard in some time but among the best albums we’ve heard from any artist this year' makingascene.org - 'The likes of Dom’s talent only comes around once in a lifetime' Fatea Records - 'A musician of unbridled talent and a future that is assured’ After his debut sell out “Spring ’19 UK Tour”, Blues in Britain Magazine said - "Now and again you stumble across a rare talent of such sheer genius that you actually wonder whether what you have witnessed can possibly be for real. Dom Martin is one such talent" (Last FM) Sooooo, he's influenced by Jimi? Watching this I saw that flair and thought Jimi, Mitch and Noel??? Welllll yea, but now it's on him to reach way down and perfect it. He's on the right track imo... Gonna be a great watch for sure. Yea, the old curmudgeon is waitin... Listen up. Ready GO! Only time will tell. An added bonus??? Seriously? On to his latest "Buried in The Hail." Just enough bump to catch ya and that Rory Gallagher twist w/an added touch of Jimi once again? Crazy good! First thoughts? These two are totally KILLAH lp's. More to follow as I kick back and take it all in. Lyrics, his work, his band they just push all the buttons. The acoustic side? Smooth and clean! If ya can't catch a groove you're either deaf or dead! 😂 Get off those gold cards your sittin HARD on! Get ya sum! 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicroMara Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Good evening friends, wasn´t here for while as I have seriouse online issues here . The district where I´m living gets a brand new fiberoptic cable net for internet applications. So far there isn´t anyone online here , except the users having a mobile hotspot on their smartphone . That´s my connection I´m using that at the moment to be online . It isn´t that fast and threads take a lot of time to be loaded . Takes a while till all works are finished here . Today I was in the mood to spin some records .... Jimmy Page & Robert Plant " No Quarter " recorded in Marakech and London in 1994, didn´t spun that for a couple of years than Queen II followed by Pink Floyd " Animals " finally Manfred Manns Earth Band " Solar Fire " 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klipsch104db Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Crisis situation with a friend at work this week. He bent the cantilever on his Clearaudio Virtuoso cartridge. It's not fixable 😬. All is not lost though. He picked up a new Sumiko MC cartridge 😄. I gave him a hug and said my prayers are with you! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndreG. Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 https://www.discogs.com/release/247822-Michael-Jackson-Bad His last good album IMHO, before switching to "saving the world god-mode"... Was it 1988? We saw him here in Berlin, infront of the Reichstag. Paul Young sang as warm-up, but people were impatient to see Michael and booed all the time... Poor Paul, it was undeserved. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klipsch104db Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 1988 Elektra reissue Exceptional sound on this Elektra reissue. Defined, rich with supreme clarity and smooth delivery. Super punchy, realistic drums you can feel and beautiful midrange tones make the guitar work really cut through. Vocals are lush and intimate and the bass is profound. I’m very impressed with the sound on this 80s reissue. Quite a stellar pressing, no flaws to speak of. I definitely recommend this pressing. Comment from Discogs so well described this pressing I had to copy it. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it had been the Jackson Five up there I bet you would have stayed. Their Motown sound was fantastic!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
