Expecting Rain

after taking the plunge, i would say you couldn't pay me $5 dollars to listen to TOOM on CD...it's an unjust edit to a perfect bliss...my heart is in the highlands tonight...

Congrats Troubs! Gotta go for what pleases you in life. Glad to hear it was the right decision for you!

What tracks sound best? What kind of system turntable are you using?

let's put it this way, even make you feel my love sounds pretty sweet.

really nice to hear were:
love sick
dirt road blues, naturally
standing in the doorway
Cold Irons Bound
Not dark yet,
million miles, oh the atmosphere
highlands, naturally

so that's a good three album sides' worth of pure pleasure. the best is you can bring the treble down enough to reduce some the the album's sharpness, while retaining atmosphere, and plenty of gravel.

i have an audio-technica LP 240 turntable.

Today´s delivery from ebay:
Great white wonder, blank white gatefold cover, blank white labels matrix BD lp101 A/B BD lp102 C/D Ex- condition on the vinyls payed 6€
and
Bootleg series 1-3 in Mint- condition that cost me 100€ , so this turned out to be a very good week indeed..

I posted it on the other thread also, I have a good-as-new spare vinyl Modern Times if anybody wants it. You'll not even have to pay if you have anything to trade.

what cart comes with that?

^^^^
Still valid.

According to amazon, Dutch label Music On Vinyl will put out New Morning, in addition to "Love And Theft", next month.

Can't wait for Love and Theft. I hope TOOM will be next.

I hope so, too. TOOM is one of his greatest.

I just saw this used BOTT half speed master on ebay. It is not my auction, and I'm not going to bid on it either, so I thought I'd post it here in case someone wants to give it a shot - good luck.

Thanks again for this great site , Sir.

So , i now have :

1. Blonde on Blonde (1968-69 UK )
2. Highway 61 Revisited (US , i think it's an 80's release )
3. John Wesley Harding ( Greek , 1968 )
4. Desire ( US , 1976 )
5. Nashville Skyline ( Holland , 1969 )
6. Street Legal ( Greece , 1978 )
7. Infidels ( US , 1983 )

Thanxx! i will try to get this one!

i had to buy the cartridge separately - couldn't even tell ya without looking it up. it's very basic. i'll need to invest in an upgrade down the road.

Gonna check out some Dylan vinyls today, for 2 €uro each. Hopefully I'll come out of the store with some treasures.

good luck, tell us what you find! planet waves is a good early find. don't get knocked out loaded unless Brownsville girl looks nice.

Did one of you get this? I just saw it went relatively cheap, 33$.... the next one that shows up is mine then!

I went there to get me some Blood on the Tracks and Nashville Skyline and they had quite a couple of Dylan's records. John Wesley Harding, Planet Waves, Pat Garrett, Street Legal, Slow Train Coming, A Fool Such As I, Self Portrait, even a copy of Empire Burlesque. But as I said, I went there because I wanted BOTT and Nashville. So, as I was about to give up, I finally found a Blood on the Tracks vinyl. That put a big smile on my face. I also got the "A Fool Such As I" record, "The Times They Are a-Changin'" and some Bruce Springsteen stuff. I think I'm going to go there again to get some more Dylan stuff. If only I could get Nashville Skyline, that would be a dream. Anybody interested in selling his copy of this album?

(Btw. unfortunately prices increased to 5.00 Euro.)

For 2 € or 5?

Hell, for "Nashville" I'd even pay 5.99 Euro

Sorry.... completeness demands that I keep it.
amazon will give it to you for 15, used:

Hm, I'll think about that, but before I buy it online, I'll check out one more record shop in my neighborhood. Maybe I'll find it there.

Music On Vinyl's repressing of "Love And Theft" to be released 7 May, but available on Dutch ebay already.

Just to keep you all on your toes I now have in my hands a mint condition half speed remaster of Nashville Skyline, now THAT's a rarity!

Oooo! Do me a drop!
