Feeling the Spirit!

Ha ha. Only for those that can stand it.

"It’s only when you dig down into Petty’s albums in search of a philosophy that you come up short."

RS ’85

"We got a man on the moon.
More coming soon."

Not in his lifetime.
It ain’t nothin’ to me.

I'm going back to Alex North and Clint Mansell.

No offense to anyone but I abhor Tom Petty. His voice is way too whiny! "Don't wanna live like a refugee" Ugghh, makes me want to puke.

So much for, "If anyone cares to mention other quality tracks that surprised you, please do! " 

If anyone cares to signal their MDS, please do!

Oh, I see it's okay to express an opinion about the front end of my system but not okay for me to express my opinion of your music suggestion. I get it now!

Most of the old pop hits we listened to on a cheap radio back on those days are a revelation when remastered and played back now on a good modern hifi. Same true for most recordings from back in the first 10-15 years of hi fi 331/3 records. Quality recordings were novel then and record companies actually promoted how hifi their recordings were and high fidelity sold. It’s plastered right across the top of many records from all the major labels back then how special their sound was. And it was! It was the golden age of vinyl.  Except very few had the tools yet needed to truly unleash it during playback like we do today. Then over time it became less of a big deal and things diverged becoming more about the music and artists and less about spectacular hifi sound.
