mikeweil Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I'm definitely listening to more vinyl since we decided to move the better hifi to the living room, where the LP shelves are. Today's choices: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Kart Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I'm listening to more vinyl since I properly readjusted the cartridge tracking force and anti-skating control on my turntable a week or so ago. Makes a notable difference; a lot of familiar vinyl sounds different/new again. And given that I still have thousands of LPs to go through...

I wonder if all the hipsters buying turntables today are even aware that such maintenance is necessary. Well, if you've still got thousands of LPs, are you going to throw them in the trash or play them? Not everything worth listening to is on CD.

Cooking or gardening is much more complicated and time consuming IMO. Edited January 20, 2020 by porcy62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two years later there was another live at Montreux "Blues a la Suisse" with Hampton Hawes, Bob Cranshaw and Kenny Clarke. Acoustic purists critizized it because Hampton Hawes playes Electric piano, but IMHO it sound´s good and groovy, same as the Gene Ammons Album from the same date with Dexter and Cannonball sittin in, with the same Rhythm section.

It is a nice album, although David Friesen (compared to Waldron`s bassplayers in the 80`s like Reggie Workman or Ed Schuller) remains rather on the lightweight side ....

HutchFan Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Last weekend, I found this Hampton Hawes LP in a local shop. I was happy to stumble across it. Been wanting to hear it for a long while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard some Hampton Hawes on Electric piano from around 1973 also. I know there are a lot of acoustic purists, but he sounds good on the Electric too. I think, withouth that huge afro he looked better. On photos from the 60´s he really Looks smart.
