Bosco-d-gama Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I owned the 1st Iron Butterfly album a-way long time ago. At the time, for some reason, I equated the group with Canned Heat. Since then I learned that Canned Heat was the better band in many ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Of course. Sterno is useful and highly portable, and in quantity can be made into a napalm bomb. A butterfly is elusive, slow, and if iron is heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got rid of all that nasty noisy vinyl though in 1983.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To each his own but I went full speed ahead with a better recording format. Compact disc = way way better S/N ratio and zero pops, scratches, and inherent surface noise. There is zero comparison between cd and vinyl recording from a technical standpoint, and end user sound quality. I gave a way to friends probably 250 albums shortly after switching to dc format.

Physically impossible to sound better than pristine digital.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, good for you, I'm happy for you. You like snap, crackle, and pop. You like a S/N ratio of 60 versus 90+. Good for you, enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
