I'm up to set/show no. 5 , Athens, GA.. I just noticed that they pressed on "peach" colored vinyl ...Georgia PEACH...get it?????
The best sounding set noise wise was the previous Greensboro one (on light green soda pop vinyl)...seems that the less color used , the better the vinyl quality...

Bought this about 2 months ago. Still haven't gotten around to listening.

Elvis Costello And The Attractions - Blood & Chocolate

 

[Electric Moo]

Here's an impressive roster of personnel, and some great playing, but the production ruins it for me. More like "Box of everything I don't like about 80s music". Probably early wave of digital recording technology too?

If they'd recorded it more like a blues album it would've been great! I guess they were trying to be current.

An ever-so-slight change in style from Fairport Convention.

The Chemical Brothers.
Dig Your Own Hole. 1997.
Bought on release day in Barnstorm, Dumfries. Probably my most played record. The vinyl has held up pretty well.

At first I thought you'd put the LP cover on! I have the original album with the cut-out cover that unfolds.
The picture disc looks great though, I should have bought one!

If you want it the vendor I used on Discogs still has copies available, £21 free postage, in the UK, not a bad price compared to some of the vinyl I've been buying recently. Listening to it, it has a kind of rumbling sound discernible on the quieter parts and a few crackles, I've heard much worse.
