Anyone have the (long out of print) Jap. import cd of Eric Gale's "Touch of Silk"? I would absolutely love a copy. What can I do in return? Don't know...light a candle for you? I might have some rarities. Actually I have 4 boxes of virgin LP's to give away but it's too far and too heavy. There might be one or two worth sending though. Also looking for the CD of Dave Gruisen, that first direct cut re-issue...title escapes me...you know the one that became an instant collectable. Damn, my mind :shock:
Shep, you're probably talking about 'Discovered Again' by Dave Gruisin. I have the Sheffield Lab version on LP, but I do think there is an XRCD version of it available. Probably expensive but definitely worth searching for. It's a great album.
That's the one! I had two mint copies. SHould take a look in the boxes. Wonder what they go for? Now it all comes back. I bought a back-up copy and spurned the cd when it came out because the LP was such a gorgeous sound. Wish I hadn't.

Classic stuff alright. I have the LP as well. No CD though. Albums ?

Albums? watch mean? early Sheffield's had sound to match anything made today. Others got in the act but excepting JVC, I don' think anyone else did it as well. Live mastering has to be super stressful. Then there came a whole slew of attempts to improve on things like virgin vinyl, metal plate etc. Then came CDs with a vengeance. This is a while nuther topic though
Shep,
I have an XRCD copy of 'Discovered Again' and if you will PM me your address, then I'll be happy to help you find a 'phantom' in your mailbox ;)!

Great! new/old music!
Vintage LP's anyone??? come on get in your Lear Jets and take these things off my hands before I do something stupid like buying a TT and a phone pre.
Steve, can't remember - do you still spin vinyl? I'd love a chance to compare the XRCD version to the vinyl version. Maybe next time we're both at a G2G you could bring it along.

Buy one NEVER give up your LPs. If not when can I pick them up ? Eh eh eh. :-P

Please pick up three full boxes of like new lp's anyone? worth a day trip to southern France? Don't spin vinyl and probably never will again. If I had the dough I would get a super cdp like the Ayon-2 and live happily ever after.
I have Dave Grusin "Discovered Again" Sheffield Lab CD version. Let me know if you want to compare at the next GTG.
