You didn't know it existed????
I remember when it came out, I was working at Tower Records Boston...I found an LP copy and bought it (still have it), and compared it to the English version which a roommate had..
Bottom line, The Spanish version is a better mix, mainly because I'm almost positive it was done after the English one, so the mix was tweaked and improved..this is s a MUST have!!!
AND they were INCREDIBLE live....what a lineup!

Oh, I saw the Eat Em & SMile tour...it was simply amazing. One of the best concerts I've ever seen.
 
How's it sound, Kap'n? Similar to Yessongs?

Well, ..to be brutally honest..basically ANYTHING sounds better than Yessongs.....but yes, it sounds better than Yessongs...the thing I love about it is the "warts and all" aspect of it...so the voice is gone here and the gtr is too low there, but that's how real life is...

Russian Circles - Memorial (CD)

This Chicago based trio has put together an intense, but beautiful heavy metal album with a strong Prog Rock feel. No growls or grunts. Except for Chelsea Wolfe's ethereal vocals on the last track, this is an instrumental jam.

I would love to have this in Hirez Surround.

This one showed up today. Sounds pretty good for a CD. DSD mastering.

Lou Reed-Street Hassle[bought this disc today at Squeezebox in Evanston for $5 btw]
 
It does not qualify as a cd/lp but I found a used copy of Some Girls on minidisc for 4.99 and decided that I have not purchased this album/cd on enough different formats. I believe this is my sixth copy of this in some format or another. I actually still have a player that works and when I went up to check out the clerk had no idea what it was. He called over another employee and they had no idea either. I explained that it was another dead audio format that he must have missed when it happened.
