Wax Treasure (Vinyl)

[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.

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

@prpx Drop out of life with bong in hand
Follow the smoke toward the riff-filled land!!!!!!! Nice score

@Inorganic - thats one of those moments when love for music just gives it all and brings hapiness! and tender pray man....up jumped the devil - in my opinion one of the finest bad seeds moments just brings a smile to my face every time
o no o no where could I go
with my hump of trouble and my sack of woe
to the digs and deserts of Mexico where my neck was safe from the lynching rope

Great shot @GraemeE
La Düsseldorf - Viva 1978.
Schimmel piano is round about from the same year.

La Düsseldorf on Spoti

And yes, it is no coincidence that this cover looks a bit like Neu!.

Grabbed this double 7" for $1 at a thrift store today based purely on the discogs description

I think our definitions of what qualifies as swedish "doom metal" are very different ......

Let’s talk about LP-Boxes

First impressions and all your afterthoughts …

[Aetas]

First impression… this will cost me a lot of beautiful time.

Eels - Extreme Witchcraft on Spoti

Eels on Tube

The LP jacket blurb reads:
“John Parish is one of the most even-tempered, polite people I’ve ever met. A true gentleman. Actually he’s probably THE most polite person I’ve ever met. But when he gets into the studio he becomes a mad scientist. If you make music with John Parish, you get stuff no one else does. He has a really unique toolbox and musical outlook. Perhaps his politeness is a coping mechanism to keep Mr. Hyde under control when he’s out of his laboratory.” - Mark »E« Oliver Everett

love the Eels @Aetas
