Today: Brian Jonestown Massacre - ST I don't hear any 'genius' here - I hear a tired old guy rehashing the same well-worn forumla for more than 20 years. They have some great albums in their oeuvre (and it must be 'ouevre', as Anton doesn't make anything that isn't 'A.R.T.'), but this isn't one of them. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard this before, and disagree. I've got 5 BJM albums, and recognise what I enjoy to be different in each pretty much immediately. This one is just more of the same for me, unfortunately.

I have all their albums and I can differentiate the differences and similarities on all their albums, however some of them took quite a bit more than one or two listens. You definitely would not like every Kurt Vile as on first listen, most songs are exactly the same. the choice for you is easy - flip it 3 Link to post Share on other sites

candyflip 3,857 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 The Verve - Urban Hymns Nothing needs to be said about the quality of the music itself, just the pressing. This is the recent UK green vinyl using the same masters as the best copy available before that, and it sounds great. However I don’t have another version presently to compare to, so take that for what its worth. Either way, a satisfying listen. 👌 2 Link to post Share on other sites

KRSDarwin 2,323 Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) Ok, been URCM’ing this morning during the cricket and now some time for listening during the tea break. Purchased this one for $2 from Air Raid Records solely for the port wine smokey swirl coloured vinyl. Had to take a non playing view so @Janjuc didn’t think I made an accidental post. Surprisingly good track and sonics. Some nice doof doof bass. Horny Records 45rpm Edrenalin, Higher Love Edited December 28, 2020 by KRSDarwin 3 Link to post Share on other sites
KRSDarwin 2,323 Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 I am very wary of purchasing ‘live’ albums because I often find the sonics pretty awful, though some noticeable exceptions with Train’s ‘Live at Last’ and Tesky Bros ‘Live at the Forum’. Not the greatest fan of U2 but overcame my prejudices because this was coloured vinyl. Australian pressing for a 1984 Australian tour but all the 8 songs (only 1 of their hits) were recorded on overseas live venues. Not a bad recording for a live set so a good result U2, Live under a blood red sky 3 Link to post Share on other sites
