    Agreed.  I'm never satisfied with Who albums.  I've given up on them unfortunately.  
    Even Live at Leeds?   That album sounds rich to me.  Perhaps I'm just lucky to have a decent copy, but it is just an average MCA re-issue.
    Fair enough.  I don't have that.  I was thinking more about the studio releases.  But you've made me realize that I don't have Leeds, which is one of the all time great concert videos.

    The Classic Records Quadrophenia is pretty stunning, but there were some qc issues.
    Yeah, I've heard they are great.  And from what I looked for, very expensive!

    I shall do that.

    I'm also thinking about buying the MOFI repress of the The Band (the Band).  Anyone have this and can opine on the quality?  It is a classic album and MOFI is usually spot on.

    Here's a pre-order that was way worth waiting for!  Juliana Hatfield, Only Everything, Runout Groove reissue.

    From the notes:  "Only Everything is a completely analog record... recorded on 2" tape, mixed on 1/2 inch tape.  Every tape recorder was as Studer and every recording console used was a vintage Neve.  Every edit was done with a razor blade and we had no Autotune, Melodyne, Drumagog or other modern shortcuts.  We did have lots of Neumann tube mics, Gibson Les Pauls, Marshall amps, and a pile of great songs from Jules." -Paul Q Kolderie

    Man, this album is total KILLER!

    It’s great. I think there is an older version mastered by Robert Ludwig they is supposedly excellent but for price and availability of a clean copy the Mofi is a no brainer.

    Yes, I’ve been searching for a nice clean RL original for a while... it’s the way to go. But I have not heard the MOFI. so I can’t help you much there.

    Another one from Jules showed up today!  Juliana Hatfield, Weird, orange vinyl.  Came with some cool goodies including stickers, two buttons and a little pack of Battle Cap sweets.  Had to much to do to give it a proper listen so am setting aside tomorrow night to just soak it in.

    I used to love bottle cap sweets as a kid.

    Root beer flavour was my favourite. I haven't seen or heard of these candies for over 30 years. Didn't even know they still made them!

    * I bought U2 All That You Can't Leave Behind last night. Listened to it. Liked it. Forgot what a good album it is. The last 'good' album in my mind (with moderate respect given to How To Dismantle...).

    Ok thanks guys.  I haven't decided yet.

    Picked up the new Metric album Art of Doubt. Unfortunately missed out on the cool blue vinyl and got black, but I also picked up Weezer's blue album on blue swirl from Sound of Vinyl.

    All That You Can't Leave Behind  is great- maybe the last U2 album that really worked for me, but no complaints, they put out a lot of great stuff over the years!

    You really should get the Achtung Baby reissue form 2018.  It's very full and dynamic.  That's the last album that I liked by them.

    Doesn't count. But I have this edition. I wouldn't argue with your assessment of it's quality!

    edit: I misinterpreted what you meant here. You never liked anything past Achtung Baby? I'd agree they never put anything out anywhere near as solid as that album, but that's a hell of a standard to meet.

    It's super good!! I love that album. I think How To Dismantle A Nuclear Bomb is also quite good .... after that they fell apart.

    I liked this album as well, but it felt a definitive notch below its predecessors for me.
