Big Al Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 While looking at LPs on eBay, I notice some of them say "mono w/ ear." What does "ear" mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stereojack Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 While looking at LPs on eBay, I notice some of them say "mono w/ ear." What does "ear" mean? Original New York Blue Note LP's were pressed by a company named Plastilyte. The ear symbol on the runoff groove area indicates that this is a Plastilyte pressing.

DukeCity Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 While looking at LPs on eBay, I notice some of them say "mono w/ ear." What does "ear" mean? Original New York Blue Note LP's were pressed by a company named Plastilyte. The ear symbol on the runoff groove area indicates that this is a Plastilyte pressing. And I've always assumed that the thing that looks kinda like an ear is actually a curved, stylized "P". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 Does this mean no one else can ask any dumb questions today? And if so, do I have to delete this post, or will it be done automatically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patricia Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 (edited) Pay no attention to 7/4. The only way you will learn all the weird little things that people know and you don't is by asking. You'd be surprised at how pleased most people are that others are interested in what they are passionate about, particularly jazz. Also, who else would you ask? I've found that the people who gather here are as obcessed with vinyl, particularly jazz vinyl as I am. Ask away.
