I had a P3 a decade ago and I regret upgrading away from it. That's many because I made a poor choice with it's replacement and also because the P3 was so simple to operate- no fuss, great fun. Snake oil upgrades to it's mains cable and tone arm wiring are available ( they do make a small difference) Quote

The sound is always so good for transfers in this series; it's a thrill to come across one I don't have already. 1 hour ago, Clunky said: I had a P3 a decade ago and I regret upgrading away from it.

Although largely MOR, there are a couple of tracks which for me are 'ringers' and (not coincidentally I think) were arranged by Stan Tracey. The David Mack and Leon Young-arranged tracks are more soporific. I have given the record another clean and it sounds a lot better. The Stan Tracey tracks are definitely the best on the record. The last three on side 2 are v good. As an aside Clem Alford, Amancio’s sitar player seems to have stopped writing to our local paper. Or been banned. Quote
Rabshakeh Posted March 7 Report Posted March 7 A Carter family comp that I bought in the market. A surprise hit with the six year old, so getting some heavy rotation.

This is the area of my record collection I most dream of building up. Surprisingly hard, at least this side of the Ocean, where that music has never had a huge sway. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 8 Report Posted March 8 I assumed it would have some sway, given the fact that the Stones, Zep, and Peter Green among others mined the hell out of it! Quote

It can be hard to find the older US stuff on the second hand market. I think it was very rare in the 1960s because it was mostly imported. Quote

adh1907 Posted March 8 Report Posted March 8 A classic hard bop date. One of my favourites. Jenkins disappeared? Quote
HutchFan Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Ralph Towner with Glen Moore - Trios / Solos (ECM, 1973) Lovely, fascinating music. Also, my LP is a German pressing; the AQ is top shelf. Quote
