artaudio 220 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) Great album by Emma Swift. "The Nashville singer-songwriter finds the sometimes-hidden heart in each of the Dylan songs she chooses, softening the sarcasm of “I Contain Multitudes” and somehow making “Simple Twist of Fate” even more of a weeper. [Swift]’s version of “One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)” is one of her best, with her slow-burn vocals bringing out all the yearning that Dylan was too cool to let show in 1966."

I’d definitely look at it, the girl can sing! Normally I wouldn't click on a link about Miley Cyrus. I'd never heard her sing anything other than some of her pop tunes like Wreckingball. I'm glad I clicked on it 'cause it brought me to this video. What she lacks in range she more than makes up for in passion. Thanks for the vids. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

stevoz 5,874 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 Just purchased on Discogs.....The B-52's self titled debut, German 1st pressing (where it was known as 'Play Loud') in 'mint' condition. Comes with this claim "This album was used as an archive example in a publishing company in Germany. The record was never played before, and the sleeve condition is next to immaculate." Sounds like potential.... 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Hey @McCvinyl I'm by no means a golden-eared listener, but i reckon the recording is 'decent'. I find the soundstage is only moderately wide, depth is OK, sound balance tends to warm (which i like) but the details are still clear....particularly on Side 1...and nicely captures the feeling of the album as i remember it. I like that it is only one disc (not 2) so it retains the flow of the original. I guess the 2-disc 45rpm MFSL version at roughly 4 times the price? probably sounds amazeballs...but this single disc LP at $33 is good value in my book. p.s. Great avatar you have...and sage advice 🙂 Cheers 2B Edited November 21, 2020 by 2Brix 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Big improvement in soundstage and low level detail since swapping the tweeter out. Link to post Share on other sites
