Wax Treasure (Vinyl)

@Mizmazzle I don't actually think I've heard it other than on cd through a crusty boom box.
I can imagine a mofi pressing on a good system would definately take it up a few notches

Not really being into live recordings kind of takes me out of the running to be a "true fan" but I have been able to track down copies of most of their studio stuff through the early 70s

Mars hotel is right about when I start to lose interest a bit

Bought this on Saturday

[GraemeE]

Joy followed by sadness this weekend when I saw an original release of this one on a thrift store shelf and opened to see that record itself was cracked and scratched to hell

[J-IV]

@GraemeE Damm that would have been such a cool find. Finding a gem like that at the ThriftStore would have made my weekend.

Winding down myself from the weekend with the picks for tonight

[GraemeE]

Of course the Nina is a gem but I dont think ive seen the other - is that Fukui?

[steelydan]

@J-IV , still hunting that nina on Bethlehem, cant seems to find a clean copy for a good price..

[steelydan]

@GraemeE , yes thats fukui ,great recording for a gd price ..

@GraemeE these Air lps are the businesses!! I have moon safari, talkie walkie, 10,000 mhz. (Think that’s what it’s called)
Sound is phenomenal and the music obviously speaks for itself. My fav kinda vinyl listen.

[GraemeE]

@Mizmazzle other than that virgin suicides single you and I have the exact same records of theirs - I've never found a band that hits all the same brain receptors for me the way Air does

[Mizmazzle]

@GraemeE my favorite kind of vinyl listening music is that sort of ambient, downtempo, psyche music that takes you on a sonic movie ride. Close my eyes, smoke a bowl, sip a bourbon, and get lost in the music. Air fits that bill perfectly!

[J-IV]

@GraemeE Bingo! RyoFukui's Scenery. Japanese reissue from a few years back.

@steelydan I hear ya, mines just a decent playable copy. Would love to upgrade but I haven't been able to find another out in the wild since

Oh man that sounds like heaven

For this mornings listening pleasure 2 from the CBC Native North America series
Willie Thrasher has moments where he sounds a bit like a mix between outlaw country and velvet underground

Rainy Friday morning in the PNW:
I would love to own an original of this one at some point but the re-issue brings me plenty of joy
