Itβs nice to have them all nicely compiled on CD in best sound though. Ah yes, that was my idea too when I ordered the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish his shop was still in operation and that he was still behind the counter. At least I have the t-shirt to remember it though. I went there in the late 90's while vacationing in London. I was pretty disappointed. I went through the whole place and had no luck at all. Now that Tower Records store in Piccadilly Circus... that was nirvana. It was convenient too. Come up the tube escalator, grab a coffee at the Dunkin' Donut shop right at the top of the escalator and then a few steps across the street and bam - you were at a great CD shop. I must've bought 10 Japanese CDs during that trip. Edited February 24, 2023 by bresna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, I did find some really good things there, right through to their final move into Harold Mooreβs Classical shop. The dusty and neglected second hand area upstairs in their relocated site could result in bargains (not recommended for asthmatics). Tower In Piccadilly Circus - used to get lost for hours in that place. Edited February 24, 2023 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) Still mixed feeling on this one. I love Hannibal, I really do. Β But I never understood why he had such terrible singers on his records. Do others experience the same or am I hearing something wrong? I mean the woman on this record is seriously out of tune.

Going to buy the Hill and McLean of the upcoming Tone Poet Linn PSU got a new motor, circuit board and tachometer. Pretty βradicalβ upgrade, I have to say. The feet are tapping ! Yes, the Hill and McLeans are going to be must haves, I think. I donβt have βMr Naturalβ on vinyl so will be tempted with that one too.
