Moody Blues---A Question of Balance

7-1/2 IPS RTR (Revox A77mkIV, running through the Bottlehead Crack w/Speedball, RCA 12BH7A Black Plate/Mullard 6080. Beyer DT880-600 ohm.)

Fantastic sound on high speed tape. Better than the vinyl and FAR AND AWAY better than the 8-Track I had in High School. Even the CD I have sounds tinny and irritating compared to this.

Regards,
Dave

Great album! After reading this I'm starting to get interested in tape. Is that a factory recorded one?

Three good scores at the used record store (VinylDaze) today over in Va. Beach.

The Association---Best of The Association

Listened to this prior to debate. Takes me back to my childhood, when my brother John came back from Vietnam with his first Hi-Fi rig and played this album for us. (Unoffensive for Mom and Pops ears.) BSR turntable, Nivico receiver, AR2ax Speakers.

Leon Redbone---On Track

Had this album when in highschool. Not sure whatever happened to it. Found this excellent copy for $2.

Bachman Turner Overdrive---Not Fragile

My parents hated this album. I played it until it became unlistenable.

Regards,
Dave

Warren Zevon The Wind 2003
Warren Zevon Excitable Boy 1978
Patricia Barber Cafe Blue

Zevon's "The Wind" is the album he did when he was terminal. Great album!
