Dire Straits "Brothers In Arms"

Not one of my favorites, actually, but a phenomenally well recorded album that really lets you know what kind of system you have.

Last night's selections:

Wailin Jennys Bright Morning Stars 2011
American Idiot Broadway Cast Soundtrack 2010
Green Day 39 Smooth 1990
Green Day Greatest Hits Vol. 1

I think Brothers In Arms suffers from overplay during the 1980s.

No argument there but it's one of the better "test records" I own. My reason for playing it yesterday was to evaluate a Pickering XV15/1200 with and without the "Dustamatic" brush. I had used the brush to good effect on a couple of Pioneer S-arms but on my Technics SL-1600 MK2, with a somewhat lighter arm, "without" wins.

Apologies to the non-vinylphiles out there for the esoterica.

Billy Eckstine: I APOLOGISE

A great standard from a time when voice mattered.
