Full Range Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 It's now lunchtime and I will be eating and listening to these 2 Albums And it's still raining outside Early releases by Genesis and supremely good Both albums are in the favourite list and any prog fan should / must have these in the collection Artist - Genesis Title - 1, Selling England By The Pound Title - 2, Foxtrot Im sure the neighbours can hear me playing music all morning as the system is of sufficient volume to be appreciated ( say no more ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Hackett's guitar is clearly audible, it certainly lacks the volume of previous albums or, even, rough soundboard mix bootlegs from the 1977 tour. During a radio interview after the album release, Collins stated that most of the 1977 sections were taken from the third of the four-night run at the Palais des Sports in Paris from 13 June 1977, which was also recorded and broadcast in part by French radio RTL. and it shows lost dynamics...more of a studio sound... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 Dynamics in reproduction is system dependant and how you compensate Stylus and phono can make or break a pleasant listening session I need to say that I have adjusted up the db setting on the phono and it's much nicer on Seconds Out Also after a few hours of listening I have to say that I show no fatigue Analogue forever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Range Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 When I admitted on another post that I was a closet Alice Cooper Fan well the English conterparts were Slade - yes I am a closet fan of this 70s English band and have most (not all) of the records Noddy Holder and the lads just made me feel good as a young lad when I listened to them They scored a staggering 11 Top Five hits in a four-year span from 1971 to 1974 five of which topped the charts More popular in mother England and Australia Not so popular in the US until much later when some songs were covered by other artists Artist - Slade Title - Slayed? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 The 3 albums that got played out of there grooves were these 3 Thats why I actually have 2 or 3 copies of each Titles - Slayed, Coz I Love You & Old New Borrowed And Blue And am spinning them now as I post.

Full Range Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 I have decided to go to a different set of bricks in the wall Artist - Jethro Tull Title - Thick As A Brick Always loved this band as no matter what, it's always refreshing to hear them again In my opinion, this is the most prog of any of Jethro Tulls releases 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 If the previous Jethro Tull album is the most progressive genre This one in my opinion is one of the most melodious Artist - Jethro Tull Title - Songs From The Wood Cant stop singing all words are coming back from memory 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
