I purchased the LZ I Super Deluxe Box Set as I wanted the 70 page booklet, not sure if I will do the same for the other issues. All my LZ is old, been played a gazillion times and simply just worn out, they are old! This new remaster is just killer! The sound is so clean, out front and the detail of instruments is crystal, pin pointable on each song. I have always preferred side II of this album and I love it even more now. The bass lines are simply sick, the kick drums too and Jimmy Page's playing never sounded so good..... Absolutely recommended if you enjoy LZ and want to hear them in all their glory.  I don't enjoy led Zepplin music very much, but I do love their drummer. Anyhow, I am happy for you and your purchase. It looks great. Also Jose, I think it may be time to dust off those AKG's and run them through your warm tube amp to blast off into musical immersion. :)

I found this S/T album to be a bit laid-back, but even that's not quite the correct term, perhaps more 'tame' than the earlier material. Still, there are gems like Island, Head Right, Some Memorial and The Cardinal And I.

I've been to the Amoeba in San Francisco and Hollywood, (though when I went to the Hollywood location, it was before I actually went to any record stores close to my home—so I picked out quite a few common records).   Well, the latest trip to San Francisco, I was in heaven. When you first enter, it's overwhelming. You could spend a DAY in there. So, I skimmed through quite a bit, never took a thorough search. What I found made me more than cheerful:  Porcupine Tree-On The Sunday of Life digipack (for $6) The Sky Moves Sideways digipack (for $8) Coma Divine Live digipack (for $6) and Stupid Dream digipack (for $8)  Octopus—Gentle Giant lp for $6 Wise After The Event—Anthony Phillips for $4 I saw they had everything from Gong vinyls (which are hard to find!), Ozric Tentacles, Goblin (HARD to find!) but they were all out of my price range ($15 and up) so I decided against them. There was so much more, but I had most of the cheaper records (Tarkus, Tubular Bells, all of Yes, Genesis, etc.)  So, plan ahead!! Check what time they open, go, and if you have a wife, make sure she's mentally prepared to wait around for hours while you search through piles of records like a kid in a candy shop. All of the guys working there seemed extra-friendly too, which is RARE to find. At least in Portland.

Wife is not going, only my son and I, so I will not have to worry about her. But she is not that type, she will look around too as most of these stores also have like books and movies that she can browse thru.

Similar to Silver Platters in Seattle, fairly large store and you can spend 2-3 hours in there easily.

Lucky b*****d. If I'm ever in California I'm going to one of them, preferably the Hollywood one.

Being the massively privileged and spoiled kid I am, I got even more records since I recorded yesterday's episode, and decided to make two this week. Because people have time for this kind of sh*t

Great video. Your family has good taste in music. I have the vinyls from my grandfather and my father and I don't like any of them.

If you want to know, Segovia is pronounced like this:

The only record I have from these is ELP's Trilogy although mine is not gatefold and the cover is in better condition than the vinyl.
