    Listening to an older physical DISC with the RAAL VM-1A & SR-1A system, while not perfect I quite like this album! I'm also hearing a surprising amount of "whispers" on a few tracks! Mostly count downs, but it's a detail I've not heard b4 so I have to acknowledge the SR-1A's supreme blend of detail and tone with the VM-1A amp behind it

    All in all tho I'm looooooving it! I think this system has dethroned the spot K1000 and WA33 held for best sound with this album

    Maybe it's just me, but I find the guitar quite aggressive on this one...which I like very much.

    Shameless promotion: Mrsdegraded's daughter, aka Elle Celeste aka Liz Stevens Music, with a new lush arrangement of a song she's been performing for a while about friends with habits.

    Appropriately given the subject matter, backing vocals are from "Janis" and "Amy".

    I think posted this a while ago, but I just heard it on vinyl and it’s still amazing..

    @ColtMrFire I still own and listen to many of Supertramp's early albums. Also saw them twice live. They were excellent in concert. Your post brought back some good memories.

    Nice! I also like Roger Hodgson's solo albums.

    Heard this tune on a PA the other day. Had no idea what it was; never heard it when it was new. In fact, I assumed it was a 2022 tune.

    Love this loaf-along beat:

    I followed Marvin's amazing Motown recordings for years, then all of a sudden came this mindblowing recording. Pure genius.

    I still can't believe he's dead.

    I'll never get over this live event I never knew was coming (so glad I watched this playoff game). This is greatness:

    I still find it amusing the bass line was lifted from a late-70s disco single.

    This is the kind of stuff that keeps me coming back to this thread...

    This disco beat is quite a bit faster than the Stereo MC's beat. I also don't hear those 2 beats as being the same (speed aside).

    I could be wrong. I'm hardly an expert on rhythm....
