Extraordinary recordings on vinyl

...one more point... Greg Hawkes was a major part of this lp. I use to watch him and was amazed by his wizardry on a synthesizer. It may be that a good part of this lp was made using a synth? Just saying... The Cars were, studio wizards.

Roy Orbison "Crying" (Mono.. Classic Records)

Frogman: I was thinking more about your response earlier. IMO, if we, the ones that proclaim to love music and the best reproduction of this music, don't show/have respect for the artists we love,.. all of this is but a blip on the airwaves, with little meaning! I really believe my love for music and music done right is an extension of my "want-to-be", (frustrated artist standpoint). Surely, if I was that artist, I'd like to think I deserved this respect from the one's who chose/choose to listen.

The Jimi Hendrix re-issues on MCA heavy vinyl around 1997. (Wow, has it really been that long?). I just listened to "Electric Ladyland", and my suspicion is that the rest of them (which I own), sound just as good.

I can only imagine how the original mono might sound?

This recording by Ric was done during the digital
age which is why it sounds so clean. An album
that throws an amazing Soundstage are special in
my book and your right The Cars albums are great
sound wise.
I remember once while perusing records at a shop
I frequented looking over and seeing Greg Hawkes
looking through vinyl too.
Had the same experience a few years back at
another shop when I spotted Billy Corgan with a
stack of vinyl in his hand.
