    They put out one more in 88 (called Crash) I think. Those two albums are more melodic and influenced by the proto-goth releases by the Damned. The hardcore purists may not have liked it, but I did.

    Yeah I might not enjoy it then.

    Was the last Primus album I needed to complete the vinyl set. 

    After grabbing that LC box set you let me know about from Club Bastardo, the only two I won’t own are:
    - Oysterhead
    - Holy Mackerel (not released on wax)
    - Electric Apricot Soundtrack (not released on wax)
    - June 20 Rehearsal EP (not released on wax)
    - Beanpole - All My Kin

    I wouldn’t buy They Can’t All Be Zingers…. It’s a “best of” that’s only on cd

    Just in, these two amazing LPs .  Gave them a spin this evening. David Murray Octet: New Life, and World Saxophone Quartet, Dances and Ballads.
    Wow!

    Very fancy. Well done. All My Kin I tried to order, site said had one. Got canceled. Sold out. Very ultra odd one I think. Will have to seek out some more songs later. Seems like it would be kind of easy to find due to its horrendousnessssssss. I'll keep an eye out.

    Hackneyed Diamonds..



  • I just picked this up last week. Been bugging Tom for a copy of Sleep In The Trees (just called "Sleep" on this release) for a few years now (only available on an Australian single that was way too expensive). He told me he loved the track, but looked on all his digital devices and couldn't find it. I guess he found it. I tweeted this and he said "damn, forgot about the "in the trees" part of the title" and also said "and this track was a precursor to the stuff I started with Lee Harvey Osmond". 
    new album "Cigarettes" out Fall 2024!

    Nice! I have to admit, this was about as far into Tom Wilson that I got. I saw Junkhouse a couple times. Great live band

    I am going to have to find those concert dates and book a business trip to southern Ontario around one of those shows. 
  • Got my Bday present.  Woohoo!

    Slant 6 was a mid 90's post punk group on Dischord records.  Good stuff and long out of print.

    Just outstanding in every way.  I have four excellent AB-1006 versions and this beats them easily.  When these were announced I knew there was lots of room to improve for Thrill,  Pretzel,  basically everything but Gaucho and Aja.  I was a little skeptical how much better it could get.  And the answer is, a lot better.

    I've been trying to resist this purchase.  I might have to cave.

    How's the sound?  My copy arrived yesterday, but my receiver is getting an upgrade, so I have to wait to listen.

    Yes it's from the Warehouse, red and blue.  For me, it only goes 60 miles so it came fast.  Regarding the quality, here is what I just posted to Discogs.  

    Seems good, not great. The lacquer cut seems well done and no surface noise. If we believe the credits on this page, then it’s easy to conclude this is the same master as 1998, rather than starting over like they did with Crash. Hopefully what we have is something like a 24-192 pressing. I’d put this at the same level as UTTAD, and far below Crash. But it is what it is. If it was recorded digitally, then that’s what we have. I’m still glad to have it after all of these years.

    Edit - I just did a little test. I compared my 1998 CD (ripped by EAC, direct USB-A xfer on JRiver to Mcintosh C49 and its DAC) and compared that to the new record. Because the audio level is dramatically different between the cd rip and the vinyl, I could not level them on the Mcintosh easily. So I used my amp switch and listened to teh vinyl on a 1971 Marantz 2245. I would say the Mc has the advantage here. Comparing the two, flipping back and forth, I can definitely say the vinyl is better than the 98 cd. But it's not really separation or imaging, it's depth. The music is just deeper and fuller. It's not a huge difference, but the vinyl is better. So hooray for that.

    I do, but it's far from perfect in terms of condition.

    I was able to listen to the black vinyl, I received from Amazon. I did have to clean the record a few times, quite dirty.  I agree with your assessment.  I too, I'm glad to have this album on wax!  The jacket and booklet are very nice!
