Janjuggler Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Hi All, An early Tangerine Dream album, can remember seeing them at Dallas Brooks Hall, around my birthday in 1975, the venue was awash with the smell of cannabis. JJ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevoz Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) Yesterday I went on a rather long trip in the car so I thought I'd listen to "Dusk' (The The) whilst I drive (after replying to @Eagleeyes who suggested I should get the LP in the 'What in Analogue Have you etc' thread ). I must say I may have mellowed since I listened to it last. After two rotations I was thinking "I am really liking this." Currently spinning the CD now on the home system and about to search for an LP of it. It's really growing on me now that I have given it the chance it deserved!..... PS: A purchase of this on vinyl may take awhile....I just checked ebay and Discogs. One copy available on ebay....almost $248 incl. postage. Discogs has 21 copies available ranging from $65 + postage to $325 incl. postage. Wowsers! It appears the only vinyl release was in the UK, everywhere else it was released only on CD (well, it was 1992), so LP's of this are going to be rare. Lucky the CD sounds excellent.....

Ian McP Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Mind Bomb: The The picked up the remastered 2002 version for $5 at recent sale https://www.discogs.com/The-The-Mind-Bomb/release/528841 Standout tracks are Violence of Truth and Gravitate to Me ahhhckkk, small particles of the all important reflective aluminium layer had flaked off in one or two places on a track or two! Ran it through EAC, fortunately it saved those couple of tracks with only a few errors, Burnt copy plays well now! EAC = Exact Audio Copy http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/ regards Ian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoz Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) Giving this another spin....The The 'Soul Mining' Oz 1st pressing. Gee it's bloody good! Realising that this release has a different track listing to the UK release (two extra tracks on this), I thought it was probably locally mixed. Indeed it was. I have just read on Discogs that this Oz release was mastered by local Steve Smart at EMI Studios 301 in Sydney. He indeed did a fine job!

Grant Slack Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 This album has very high production values, but has a closed-in, studio booth kind of atmosphere. Her vocals in particular sound like she is not just in a sound-proof booth, but an air-tight anechoic phone box. Once I get into it, it is good. IMHO the songs also improve as the album plays. The last three are very nice. If you are chasing minutes per dollar, note that the album is 30-something minutes long. Regards, Grant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I saw that they toured but weren't doing studio album versions of their early songs so I bailed. I'm subscribed to the "The The" website and get all the info on latest releases.....great packages but Matt's latest stuff is not my 'cup of tea'. His early stuff however......genius. You are indeed fortunate to have 'Dusk" on vinyl. Edited June 19, 2019 by stevoz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You inspired me to pull my copy out and give it a spin. When this does get reissued, hopefully its better than the Soul Mining vinyl reissue which was crap - Aussie and UK original pressings much better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hired goon Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Sam Rosenthal with Nick Shadow and Steve Roach - The Gesture Of History -- a mix of viola (from Mr Shadow) and atmospherics (from Mr Roach). Sometimes the viola is is more prominent, sometimes the synth washes are more prominent. Kinda like a David Darling or Aaron Martin or Julia Kent album with a bit more drone. "Name Yer Price" lossless download from Bandcamp. --Geoff 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
