day 47
#GratefulDead
From The Mars Hotel
Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs

MFSL had a big controversy recently, when it came to light that most of their output is sourced from digital transfers of the master tapes versus being an all analog path.

I enjoy the tangible experience of vinyl. I don't know if my ears and gear are good enough to tell the difference in source. What do y'all think.

day 24
#JerryGarcia
The Wheel b/w Deal
Warner Brothers Records (1972)

A French seven inch with picture sleeve. I collect picture sleeves and was fortunate that a seller I was buying from at the time, had just listed this for a reasonable price. Now if someone has a French Uncle John's Band picture sleeve they would like to sell to me...

day 9

Grateful Dead
Workingman's Dead
Warner Brothers Records (1970)

Funny how one's perception of the same album changes over time. I was lukewarm on this album when I was younger, but I have grown to really enjoy it. Still, I think most of these songs work better when played live.

day 7

Grateful Dead
Live Dead
Warner Brothers Records (1970)

I bought this new and I generally took good care of my records, but this one definitely seems like it made the rounds as it has some fraying on the edge of the cover. No wonder... This is essential listening for any one just getting into the band.

day 6

Grateful Dead
Aoxomoxoa
Warner Brothers Records (1969)

Those were the days when we would marvel at the attention to detail in the album artwork, and there certainly was a lot to process in this album!
