When I bought the cd last year, it came with/in a printed, black, plastic bag. It is supposed to be 'special' like that. Wonder if the new LP is also like that.... 

[Dave1291]

Melo, my lp came w/the bag too fyi.  Great lp isn't it? 

 

 

[AndreG.]

Sadly, mine has a few scratches... But I got it cheap, now that i know I like it, I can look for a better copy.

That´s what I like about vinyl covers and this one is special, Alan Parsons, what can I say.

Sittin on a day off btwn appointments!  lol  Unzipped "Regimental Sgt Zippo" by Elton John.  This lp was hyped as his first with Bernie Taupin co-writing with him. For some reason it wasn't released.  So this went into the manilla folder for later.  Not too shabby if you like early Elton, aside from that, there's really no draw imo.

Yes the LP does come in a black plastic outer cover 

 

This is my recent copy 

 

[MeloManiac]

A Dire Straits EP that is often overlooked in their repertoire... Sounds so jazzy... If you want to hear Mark Knopfler do some scat singing, then listen to track two. 

[AndreG.]

 

Now with Shure M91 MG-D and new spherical stylus.

I picked up a really cool Pantera album...2 disc set but only 3 sides!  The B side of disc 2 is blank with a photo disc of the band!  Pretty cool!

[Dave1291]

Couple hours before my next appt so think i'll throw a couple on.  Think my doctor is nuts with all of these tests but maybe he'll find something.  Just another way to rape wallets when you're on the way out?  It's almost like having a part time job.  He thinks I'm doing this stuff every year cause it's part of Medicare he's nuts. lol

Next up?  Yuuuup!    Always time for some JJ Cale! 

 

[AndreG.]

[JohnJ]

My replacement "Wish You...." still has that cool mylar black covering. The original had too many miles on it to go under the new MC a couple years ago.

 

What else ya got there @RocketFoot ? Welcome, and some of us dig that good heavy stuff. Had that first track as an alarm on my phone a while back!

[AndreG.]

Last one for today:

Not anymore...Rolling Rock sold out to Anheuser-Busch and is brewed in several different cities other than Latrobe, PA!  The brewery is still here but it is City Brewing Co. now...they brew Twisted Tea and Truly Hard Seltzer water.

Still testing. Had to switch from spherical to an elliptical needle, the round one produced too much hissing... I think the stage is shifted slightly to the left, will experiment with tracking force and anti-skating.

[Dave1291]

Just glue a dime to the headshell @AndreG..  Woorks every time!

 

Nice and quiet here in the hood so fired things up a bit ago.    

 

In Deep is the fourth studio album by Argent, originally released by Epic Records in October 1973. It features the original full-length recording of "God Gave Rock and Roll to You", which reached No. 18 in the UK charts (U.S. No. 114) when released in edited form as a single later the same year. It was later remade by Kiss as "God Gave Rock 'n' Roll to You II" for the film Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey in 1991.

 

 

 

 

Yup a lil heavy on the volume but they'll survive.  lol  

[Dave1291]

Smoothin 'em today before it all breaks loose later.  😂  Glenn Frey?  Seriously?  Why not?  From a nice lil solo career too.  "No Fun Allowed" was his first from 1982.
