Vinyl - Progressive Rock Music Forum

^ Up to #4 it was interesting:

That's where used records always have clicks and pops, which ruins quiet passages :(
The turquoise thing on the left is a device for smoothing out the grooves
This is a demo rig for teaching “runaway positive feedback” to physics' students
I like that mermaid picture at 2 o'clock. There must be an Appalachian-style tackle, lure and gun pawn outfit behind the vinyl shop.

After which the list became "too cute", or I just ran out of my attention span :)

I didn't understand nº 25 though

Gatefold is a multi-use tool....kinda like a Swiss Army Knife LOL

You can even fan yourself with one on a hot day....now that's what I call 'cool'

Just visited Bleeker St. Records and passed up Clockwork Angels for a copy of Mastodon's Once More 'Round The Sun LP. Hope it's good but I'm on hols and have to wait a few weeks yet. Got some other bits and pieces, of note - Procol Harum's Shine On Brightly, and a George Harrison album of electronic music - just him and a Moog synth in 1968.........
Oh, a live dbl by Styx, and Nicky Hopkins' first album called Jamming With Edward........

One of the best gatefolds I own......

Everything sounds better at night..have you notices that? One evening I started spinning at about 8pm and stopped at 4am, the wife was out of town with the kids....It sounded so good I just kept going. Thank GOD it was a Saturday and I slept Sunday till about noon.

Very true. Certain things also seem to sound better on Sunday morning with coffee.

Incidentally, partway into that Jane album my daughter and her sleepover friend decided they wanted to watch TV and play in my listening room. I surrendered the room like a good sport.

Mine are old enough I can tell them to leave and not feel bad about it...... LOL

Although I do need to go upstairs and start dinner, my wife works till 6pm.....She will need food.

Cool haul....I am sure the Clockwork Angels will still be there, you can go back and get it. I passed up a bunch of Procol Harum, I am not a fan. That Styx dbl live is a good one....

You know, for some dumb reason, the regular Aussie press of the Styx live is just a single LP with just 8 (or 9 maybe) tracks. I've never seen the dbl version back home........looks like an awesome track list, and the inner pics of the band in action look way cool - some cool shots of the Panozzo's too !! Great rhythm section for the band.

Y'know, Lonesome Crow is virtually a Kraut-Prog classic. Then, Fly To The Rainbow is also awesome....
Some members of Can worked with some of the U2 dudes.....
I never liked U2.......
