I want to draw your attention for all you vinyl enthusiasts who are into blues;

I purchased the two albums below from a record store that carries the fatpossum label. These albums have been produced on 180gm vinyl and are extremely well recorded and so quiet between the tracks. They also come with a download coupon for 320MPS download. I'm so impressed with the quality that I've just ordered another blues,

I also like Alligator Records. Lots of good blues on that label.

Its not so much the blues.. ( I should have not emphasized the blues ) but rather the label. I should buy something non blues from them and have a listen.

I picked up a copy of this about a month ago and it's only the second copy I have seen- I borrowed the other for a while from my guitar teacher (over 40 years ago) and really like it but hadn't found another. I don't buy much used vinyl, but this one looked very clean and it didn't disappoint. The one I borrowed wasn't in great condition and my system at that time was nothing like it is now, so I didn't really have any preconceived notions about how it might sound. Released in 1967, engineered/mastered by Bernie Grundman. Very good sound.

Sounds exciting. It makes me wonder if it will be here in time to latch onto vinyl's resurgence, or be a day late and a dollar short. Who knows?

Byston is now getting into the TT game. GoldNote of Italy is designing a TT for them. Bryston is developing the motor and power source. Cost about $4000.

200mm Silicon Record! It's a gimmick, but a kind of cool gimmick at least.

Nothing, actually. I'm betting the tonearm can be swung past center to trail with the rotation of the platter and that's just an unusual rest position.

Of did I miss something less obvious?
