On Monday I got a BILLY VAUGN record (Great country hits)

The 3 are: Its a sin,Giutar Polka and Foggy River

What I love about this collection is THEY HAVE THE SONGS IN FULL MONO IN BOTH CHANNELS!! (The music sounds excellent (Most 50s songs are MONO anyway))

I also have this collection on 8 track (3 cartridges) and I can tell already the records are MUCH BETTER! (Longer songs,etc (Some songs are cut off early on the tapes (What I have heard so far on the records is awesome!)))

 

I've Xmas I got

ICP - Carnival of Carnage
Shaggy 2 Dope - FTFOMF

 

im seriously thinking about going back to VINYL because these people alter your artists music. They call it "remastered" . I call it "raped". So, as a reggae lover , I have no other choice other than buying vinyls or mc cassettes - already bought some mc cassetttes. got no other choice man

 

Vinyl reigns supreme, especially with high quality speakers

 

Yesterday I got 3 records

1) Our day will come - Ruby and the romantics - MONO
2) 20 fantastic hits by the original artists - A good collection of songs (1973)
3) Pisces,Aquarius,capricorn and Jones LTD - The monkees - MONO

I have this IN STEREO but when I found the mono copy I got it as I really have always preffered Mono (Ill take the stereo one to salvation army I guess and someone can have it )

 

I will get my vinyl player soon. Theres just too many things in my head right now. There is a big fleemarket next to my house where they sell lps(all kinds of) damn cheap. Some of those lps are smaller in size. I dont know how you call them? But I think the smaller vinyls are even older. Not sure...

 

Well when ya do you'll be happy buddy!!!!

Nothing nicer than the sound of analogue


I last got a record: THE BEST OF PETER AND GORDON (MONO) -- Its excellent!!

 

Three are 3 sizes of vinyl.
12 inch, called "L.P.s" (long playing) 99% they are played at 33 1/3 RPM
7 inch, usually with a big hole in the middle. 80% of the time they are played at 45 RPM and commonly called "45s"
Then there are the records that should be played at 78RPM. They are usually older and thicker, not quite as big as an LP. called "78s"
