Ok, update now that I've cleaned the records, these LPs are in really good shape, no scratches or scuffs, very few pops and I'm pretty sure a trip through one of those TNT vacuum machines will get rid of them.

both as 320 kb/s mp3. I wish Amazon will open up for the rest of the world soon, cdon.com could need some competition.

Look forward to Sebastian Tellier as this album has been getting good reviews here.

Bad Brains - S/T

Where the fuck has this band been my whole life. I always knew on hearsay that they were good, but I didn't expect THIS good. Punk has always seemed anti-intellectual and anti-technical but these guys blow the doors off everything that punk supposedly stands for, and are absolute virtuoso musicians in their own right. It's just flat-out awesome music, no matter what genre it belongs to.

The production, of course, is some of the worst I've ever heard, but go figure. It kinda adds to the whole thing actually, instead of detracting from it.

Anti-intellectual? You really did miss the point with punk then :)

Didn't that only recently get released on vinyl, therefore offering a decent chance at high fidelity digital format, for the first time? Wasnt it only available as cassette? Or am I talking out of my ass?

IIRC, the vinyl is on Earache, who sources all their vinyl from a plant somewhere in Europe that is only able to press vinyl using a CD as the master source. Bad!! :mikey2:

Yes, Mike, the Bay Area doesn't need more vinyl. Keep it all here in Florida. I've strangely starting buying vinyl though don't own a tt. It's like a weird force has taken over. Four albums last week alone.

Shostakovich Cello Concertos No. 1 & 2 (listening to cd wondering how it would sound on vinyl)

Bill Evans Sunday at Village Vanguard

I've been buying vinyl too. Iggy Pop - Raw Power (only way to get bowie's master, instead of the atrocity that iggy did when he remastered it), and some johnny cash 45s. I'll be sending them off to LFF for ripping soon.
