Meanwhile in the sensible, non naked composer wielding UK, where we wear clothes cos it’s cold all the time, I am just starting to play some records gifted to me by another generous audiophile.
A “starter pack” if you will, and this is first out of the pile.
One of my two favourite TD albums, and one that I have never owned (mostly because my GF of the time 45 years ago was a huge fan and had all the records, but they lived at my gaff because I had the better hifi and the less intrusive parents).
Lovely very clean copy too :slight_smile:

I’ve said it before I here, I have been blessed with generous friends and acquaintances over my life, and hopefully I have “paid it forward” enough over the years too.

Anyway enough gushing, and more listening!

Sounds great on the P2 record player - and I think I shall continue to refer to TTs as such as it has a oldy worldy feel to it as befitting such an apparently “steam driven” technology - belt drive for goodness sake?! 40 odd years ago when I bought a DD record player I didn’t expect to be buying drive belts now. Fuel for my personal jet-pack maybe, but not drive belts :smiley:

Just so everyone is clear, I may be the trailer-trash refugee around here but it wasn’t me who started this avalanche of filth…

Record label courtesy of The Here and Now Band’s classic, if somewhat rough around the edges release from 1978 “Give and Take”.

Genesis.
Quite a good band all things considered :wink:

I have listened to Seconds Out over and over to the point that sides three and four became an actual ear worm that troubled me, at full length, for weeks on end.
Still great though.
By the time I paid genesis any attention they had gone full Phil Collins mode, so those are the versions of these songs I am most familiar with. Hearing their Gabriel originals is great fun, they were quite a good band back then too :smiley:

Oh and I used to have a cassette recorded off air of their The Rainbow full set on the Duke tour that got played to destruction before I managed to digitise it.
