Bought these on Saturday

[GraemeE]

Picked these up this weekend

@J-IV you are at least partially responsible for memorial

I was motivated by jealousy

[J-IV]

@GraemeE

That’s a great haul though. Many of my records were fueled the same way. Haha

[GraemeE]

@J-IV the universe is in alignment apparently because I just found a mint re-issue at goodwill for $2

[J-IV]

Looks super clean! What pressing was the first one you stumbled on?

[GraemeE]

First one is pretty rough but plays through without skips

Goodwill find was an '82 OJC

[J-IV]

An essential if you ask me.

[GraemeE]

Another interesting goodwill find in great condition

@Steve great albums! I'm all about the soul and disco

Camel- Mirage 1975 on Spoti

[GraemeE]

@Aetas this hits on multiple levels for me as I was a camel smoker for almost 20 years

[Aetas]

@GraemeE
I often wondered how this cover went through the lawyers offices.
Hope the hitting level is positive in the end :-)).

[Tago Mago]

@Aetas love it, great album

[Aetas]

@Tago-Mago
New you’ll like it ;-).

[Tago Mago]

@Aetas I have a playlist that consists mainly of non-metal songs. Lady Fantasy has to be on it

[GraemeE]

@Aetas did you pick up a copy of Tom Waits -Real Gone?

If so id be interested in whether you got the original mix or the remaster that came out a few years ago

[Aetas]

Funny you ask @GraemeE
I had the original 2004 version of Tom Waits-Real Gone for years in my car.
As it was a different experience to ‘Alice’ and ‘Blood Money’, I simple forgot about it.
They played the 2017 remixed version in my shop yesterday.
First time hearing, something familiar and also new lingered into my ears.

Was undecided, so I only picked a mint LP of Ash Ra Tempel.

Ash Ra Tempel on Spoti or on IHmusic.

[GraemeE]

I have a similar experience having owned it on CD when it came out.
I got the 2017 vinyl remaster a few years back and have mixed feelings on it.

Several songs have been "tweaked" slightly beyond what I would consider the usual for remixing/remastering

Case in point:
2004

2017

Even in the first few seconds you hear guitar and horn parts that weren't present in the original mix
