Wax Treasure (Vinyl)

[SKT]

@setandsetting I grew up on my father’s Tandberg receiver pushing air through a pair of the original Heresy I. I absolutely adore those speakers and am envious of your awesome setup. Bet it sounds spectacular!

Not huge into 45s but I found this guy In great condition at a thrift store while on
vacation with my family at the oregon coast and had to have it

[J-IV]

Thats a great pick up @GraemeE !

Haven't had much time in awhile to spin anything but things are finally slowing down. Probably the most solemn mood I'll ever be listening to this gem today.

@J-IV RIP Astrud - read about her passing this morning

A true badass

@Alex the contents of that wall are solid proof of the artistic brilliance of your Island

Listening to the expanded emperor tomato after making it home from a "vacation" with 3 kids
Also a small glimpse of my task for next week - figure out how to get this little guy shipped to @Aetas

Speaking of Drive By Truckers, picked up the new Jason Isbell on vinyl last week. Fantastic as usual but lord it is not a record that will make you happy.

Mail day

[steelydan]

Happy to buy these on Saturday

[GraemeE]

@steelydan another great haul

[steelydan]

Yessir , especially the kenny dorham and cannonball Adderley..

[J-IV]

^^Agreed. Never seen that one in the wild that was playable.

Mail day today. Going to clean these for some weekend lounging

[steelydan]

@J-IV , liking the cooker , how do you like the tone poet re- issue? . I personally think its a good buy considering the prices of original .. price ratio over quality is a no brainer.

[J-IV]

@steelydan yup I think you hit the nail on the head. Aside from pressing titles that weren't released or were badly pressed when they did, they offer great fidelity for the price point. Unless you're an OG die hard, TonePoets series is a godsend for jazz vinyl lovers. TinaBrooks is one of my all time favorite tenors so being able to hear him at such great quality is such a treat.

Got these on Saturday
