Vinyl _____ Show your best/worst sounding!
The 'I just picked up on vinyl' thread is really great, it's so good for seeing what's out there and seeing what many other's manage to get their hands on. But, I thought I'd start another thread, unrelated to that one... This topic is for anyone that's interested in posting records they have in their collection's that…

Same Song Title, Different Band/Artist: "Angel”

Jimi Hendrix - Released on the album "The Cry of Love" in 1971 Aerosmith - Released as a single off the album "Permanent Vacation" in 1988 Shaggy - Featuring Rayvon, released as a single in 2000 Jack…

Is this vinyl player good?
So the ON-OFF stick is broken off, so my dad gave it to me. Is it a common/good player (Pioneer PL-510)? Worth trying to find a new "stick"..? (Is that even possible?) I also think the arm doesn't go back automatically at the end of playing a side. Should I just buy a brand new vinyl player instead?

Check out Sturgil Simpson
He is badass! If any of you guys even remotely like country start with his album Metamodern Sounds In Country Music. If you can't stand country music then start with his latest album, A Sailor's Guide To Earth, and specifically songs Breakers Roar, Sea Stories, In Bloom and Brace For Impact (Live A Little). I saw him this…

Any Fusion fans?
Also know as just "Jazz Fusion". I tend to say "Jazz/Rock Fusion" or "Rock/Jazz Fusion" since those two genres are what is being fused, but for now I'll just call it "Fusion". So anyway, I thought it would be cool to hear from any fusion fans here. My favorite fusion artist is Larry Coryell and I finally replaced an old…

The man who coined the word "cool".
AND, among others, the phrase "I paid my dues". And that man, one of the great gods of jazz, is the one and only Lester "Prez" Young. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rCSTY917sk Now that is cool!

How's Your Luck Been in the Used Bins Lately?
Got this thread idea from another forum, but I thought this would be a nice place to see what everyone is finding at their local shops. I have been more into CDs lately, looking for early pressings of my favorite albums. Used Bin vinyl can be so hit and miss, and with the "Cool" mark-up used vinyl is now getting, it pushes…

Same Song Title, Different Band/Artist: "One”
This week’s song is “One,” which I’ve found to be a heavy hitter in three different decades. Metallica - 1988, off of the “And Justice For All” record U2 - 1992, off of the “Achtung Baby” record Three Dog Night - 1969, written by Harry Nilsson Feel free to go off of the board and suggest a song that is not one of these…

Music Industry/Streaming Services
Is a complete mess with regards to streaming services as I continue to have classic albums disappear on a daily basis! I have Tidal and have read that it wouldn't matter if I switch to Spotify as the same thing happens to albums there!

Same Song Title, Different Band/Artist: "Crazy"
This idea popped in my head this morning about common song titles used over-and-over again. I thought it'd be fun to throw up a common song title on occasion and get opinions on who their favorite version of that song is.
