The wife was at this concert. It will be really interesting to see her reaction when I get to play it back for her. She was 15 and her date got too loaded to drive home so she had to and had to learn how to drive a stick at the same time.
They're still friends and even talk about the concert now and then. She wants me to send him a copy of the rip as a surprise.
She got to see Jimi and I got to see Jim. A tie of sorts, maybe, but not really. :)
Cheers back at you! I thought that the side 1 thing might be true but also that I also just might be misunderstanding.
And that'll make the boy happy that he got something unique (and valuable, according to me).
I wouldn't classify this as "Heavy Metal". A lot of 'hits" there though.
If you recall Tull once got a Grammy for Heavy Metal, so go figure. But it was definitely a different direction back then.
This has been in the to do pile for a few years and finally got to it.
It's a goldmine though and I just got done busting up the individual tracks. Take me about 3 weeks to get through them all.
I must say that it gave me the need to give Deep Purple / Made In Japan another look. This was a HQ concert album that I just never got around to getting.
Kurt, Iâmma need your help with something, since Discogs is letting me down.
As a BD present, my fantastic son (and I do mean fantastic) got me a copy of Sgt Peppers thatâs of mediocre quality, probably, but seems to be a 1968 pressing, complete with cutouts. Iâll try to upload a pic of it when Iâm not in transit. But I was very impressed with his thoughtfulness.
Last year, it was a Thelonius Monk disc with a neat background - https://www.nytimes.com/2020/0... This is the same kid I rocked to sleep while singing Fountains of Wayne (âDonât you want to ride in myâ¦survival carâ¦â) and Beatles (âIâm so tiredâ¦I havenât slept a winkâ¦â) and, for Fatherâs Day 20 yrs later, he got us FoW tickets in SF and we literally hugged the stage, pissing off the little kids behind us who wanted to hear âStacyâs Mom.â
His first name is Stevie Wonderâs real first name, and middle is Elvisâ middle, complete with misspelling. So, he named his boy with Springsteenâs first name and then Bob Marleyâs middle. Just when I think I understand him, he ups my opinion of him. Anyway, I want to give him feedback on the album he grabbed, since I told him it was likely an early pressing.
FoW ... I just got done listening to The Cars first album which is one of their inspirations.
Very cool. To be most helpful I would need the deadwax runout numbers and a picture of the label on the vinyl. The font and the layout of the labels are also different depending on the plant so that is a critical thing to match up. There are 43 US copies listed (so far) for the years of 67,68 and 69.
They would look something like this:
SMAS-1-2653-A-10⢠2 â 2
SMAS-2-2653-A-12⢠2 â
The dots and the symbols matter. For example ... â denotes Capitol Records Los Angeles or Hollywood pressing plant.
other codes that you may see.
WW or ââ = Capitol Records Pressing Plant, Winchester
â or â² = Capitol Los Angeles
â = Capitol Scranton
here's one set from Capitol's Jacksonville, Illinois Plant. The 0 is the identifier. The F / number actually tells which lathe was used to cut the lacquers.
MASX1 2653 F8 0
MASX-2 2653 F8 #5 0
Anyway, you obviously can't find out til you get home. Let me know.
I see that the editor does not do the symbols on the legacy site. I see that they do on the new site.
