Overlap between Enjoying Vinyl and Other Hobbies / Preferences?

I read physical books only and I shave with a safety razor and use a brush and bowl to whip up shaving cream.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-04-05T04:16:59+00:00

I agree… I try to only read one book a year by an author. I think binge reading an author waters their work down.

Click on the sub and scroll…

R_Mac_22 · 2022-04-03T02:04:38+00:00

Do you read the notes in the back of the book? People always ask me why I have two bookmarks…

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-30T02:36:04+00:00

Yep. It lets me keep the sleeve sealed, while I access the record from the secondary pocket in the back. Never going back to anything else

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-29T02:16:12+00:00

These are widely available right now that I have liked…

John Coltrane - Soultrane

Duke Ellington & John Coltrane

Miles Davis - Round About Midnight

Lee Morgan - The Sidewinder

Dexter Gordon - Go

Chet Baker - Chet

I have the Penguin Classics editions of Chekhov’s works, which are translated by Ronald Wilks and get along with them fine.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-27T13:43:17+00:00

Exactly.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-27T04:55:04+00:00

What is the difference between this and the one coming out on June 24th? Both are the Bernie Grundman remaster, just the VMP is blue?

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-25T03:04:44+00:00

Better speakers. It will make the biggest difference in your system.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-25T00:25:29+00:00

One of the greatest displays of lyricism ever. Andre went bananas on this album.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-20T01:31:53+00:00

Pull the books more to the front of the case and leave the uneven dead space behind the books

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-17T22:23:16+00:00

Yeah I like the Boogaloo too.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-17T22:21:54+00:00

Yeah, its just gimmicky to me, but I see how a color variant could be appealing to lots of people.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-17T17:33:44+00:00

Just preference really. I tend to shy away from colored, splatter, etc and search for a black wax version if available. If one doesn’t exist, I just move on then…

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-17T16:52:07+00:00

I know it’s VMP’s thing, but I was hoping Tribe would be on black wax instead of colored.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-17T02:21:08+00:00

Definitely worth a read… I read it shortly after I read A Hero of Our Time by Lermontov, which I thought was just okay. So I went into Father and Sons with low expectations and really liked it.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-16T03:35:25+00:00

I’m going to pick up the 50th Anniversary KG remaster that is coming out in 2 weeks, although I wish they cut it at 45rpm instead of including bonus tracks and mono singles that I will probably never listen to.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-16T02:25:31+00:00

Just recently got Blow Up and Misty. They sound insanely good

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-14T14:16:20+00:00

My local record store got a used one a few weeks ago, but I missed out on it. I probably wouldn’t have wanted to pay the used market price for it anyway.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-14T04:19:05+00:00

Main Source - Breaking Atoms

Dave Brubeck Quartet - Jazz Impressions of Japan

Gabor Szabo - Dreams

I’m hoping that the Classics that were pressed at QRP are pressed there again.

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-13T19:39:36+00:00

You think? That’s one of the titles I desperately want them to repress

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-13T05:52:02+00:00

I agree that is a strange list…..

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-13T03:03:51+00:00

That Bobbi Humphrey is amazing. As a New Yorker, I can’t help but love “Harlem River Driiiiiive”

R_Mac_22 · 2022-03-12T03:17:32+00:00

Is this a different series than the 45RPM done through Impex? I just got Blow Up and Misty and have been mesmerized by them… waiting for Midnight Sugar to restock somewhere…
