why did the estate of Jimi Hendrix remove THE CRASH LANDING ALBUM????

I bought about 22 or so Hendrix CDs back when MCA still had the rights to them. His work is so underplayed on the radio that many people haven't even heard some of his greatest songs.

Dire straits een mooie muziek en nog steeds Kijk JJCALE en Eric Clapton mooie muziek draaien 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Agree that this is great value ! Bought a copy a few months ago. The Hendrix estate have done a great job of making affordable high quality records available to buy.

When my parents bought the then new Very Best Of Dire Straits compilation by the end of the 90s, 15 year old me was immediately hooked. Of course there were the big hits, but the live version of Love Over Gold somehow connected with me. So I decided my first album of my new favourite band would be LoG, even though it only had 5 tracks on it. Best decision.

Been a fan of DS since the first LP. I purchased the Warner pressing of Love Over Gold when it was released (early 80s). I was immediately blown away by the mastering. The dynamic range on this pressing is phenomenal (even on my modest turntable setup at the time.) I have encountered few pressings that reproduced such a full sound (Paul McCartney and Wings, Back to the Egg was another great sounding pressing around that same timeframe).

I have a copy from Italy that is brighter than the US copy. DS has always been a favorite of mine. my system : 1962 Lenco/Bogen heavy plinth and Jelco 380H arm and using a Nakamichi 200 or AT 440mLA. my phono i have had for many years YS Audio Concerto and their Symphonies+ pre all tubed feeding a Hafler 280XL. needing new speakers soon and loving my music

It Never Rains is one of my favorite DS songs. The whole album is outstanding. Picked up a brand new copy this past spring for $18.99 and like you my gateway in them was Brothers. In Arms. And I’m Gen X too. So much great music we had in the late 70’s and 80’s

Shine a light: the church vibe comes from Mick'n'Keef being at the gospel service Aretha recorded for Amazing Grace as they were in LA early 72 for the dubs and mix.

Loving Cup: from Olympic studios,not Nellcote.

I suspect both 2010 vinyl and the half speed were taken from the digital masters created by Stephen "Masher" Marcussen when he did the 2010 reissue. Apparently he had to bake the tapes to get them to play. That's why Miles Showell had to work off digital masters at Abbey Road. And those masters were not DSD256 or PCM, but much lower resolution. So, alas, the original analog source Mick'n'Keef heard in the LA studio is gone...

Great review. I also have to half speed master of Exile and think it sounds good. I’ve been picking up these half speed along the way. Have about 4-5 of them so far, I know a lot of people have been.crapping all over the Miles master but I like them and they are affordable. My system is Sony STR DH 190 receiver; Sony PSLX 310 BT Turntable and the Sony SSCS 5 Speakers ( and a Onkyo DX C390 6 CD changer) I know it’s not a top shelf system but but I think it works well and have had no problems

Thank you for this deep dive into an album that has so much more to offer than (the hit single) Love The One Your're With. Stills is a genius!!!!

Haha I still have an original from back in the day but what were they thinking with that sleeve? They're already on the front and then a closeup in the fold. Ego mania? What about art. Then again the CIA aren’t known for their aesthetics. You do know the history of CSN and Laurel Canyon right. Still “Wood Ships” will always be a favourite of mine (so long as I'm wearing my tinfoil hat 😛).

Does Audirvana suggest new songs from your library based on previous listening habits like Roon does? I did a trial of Roon but it's capped at 44.1K for my dac.

Give a taste of the song much sooner.

Please review more Linda Ronstadt albums!

bro cant tell if he likes the vinyl or not without measuring all that tf lol

I also bought this Stills vinyl at Pitchfork in Concord. It was Summer of '87. I was 17 and the store was kitty corner from its present location. Its been one of my favorites ever since!

I love how both the keyboards (organ & piano) and guitars (lush is an appropriate description) really have a great interplay on this album. In 1971, Stephen Stills played keyboards on Ringo's "It Don't Come Easy" single. Although produced by George Harrison, the single has the great signature sound of Stills' interplay of keyboard & guitars.

Got a Steven Stills boxset and it is brilliant.

Didn't know about that either...a possible remix. Have two 1970 US copies...Richmond and Monarch. Both are very well done. The CTH cut was crap. Got rid of it some years ago.

ANOTHER REALLY REALLY GOODE ONE..!!

I have a copy on cd. Gonna break that out and hear & remember how it sounds. I will keep an eye out for an lp when I am in the village (NYC) again.

Been listening to this since it came out. Also, Buffalo Springfield, Neil Young (First 2 album's still my favourites.) CSNY. No Nash or Crosby Manassas but not overly keen on them. New Rider's of the Purple Sage are my real favourite's and have alway's alway's been. {I'm not a Dead fan}. I'm British and grew up with all these and of course the STONE'S... Note, not the beatles. Most of the Steven Still's album's are well worth listening to. I play them fairly regularly.

Yes, get a HumminGuru. Had one for 3 months now; life changing! Scored a Stills 1 UK red plum first press recently. Very dirty and scuffed, but after an ultrasound clean it sings like real all analog early press.

As R Stevie Moore says on one of his releases “who keeps buying Dark Side of the Moon?”

i saw Buffalo Springfield new year eve in hollywood before they released their first album what a live performance. i have this album among all the others. i also have a 1 sided soft cut of a disco that he tried and thankfully it was not released.

Great review.........have any Seals and Crofts, Steely Dan, Al Stewart or Doobie Brothers?

You have to check out his double album Manassas. I still listen to it today...a real gem.

This is a great album! Of course, "Deja Vu" and "4 Way Street" were my favorite albums. I was in an original R&B band with Calvin "Fuzzy" Samuel. He's one of the nicest guys I've ever met. I knew Joe Butler from the The Lovin Spoonful. I helped him paint his inlaws cottage. I have a wild story about him. I'm still very into music. Rock being my favorite, but I have eclectic taste.

All-Star Line-up ans absolutely no one talks about this great album.

I can share a rip. Are you on instagram?

I kinda liked my Mofi UD1S better. It has silky smooth details

Sorry to be the fly in the ointment, but I would wager serious money proving that the DVD-V audio surround sound versions of "Rumours" and "Mirage" would sound ten times better on all metrics than the 45 or 33 RPM versions.

Just added all 6 of the Roth era Van Halen albums to my collection and they are all the Chris Bellman remasters and they sound great

Good video. My system is pretty modest. Sony STR DH 190 receiver: Sony PS-LX 310 BT turntable Sony SSC5 Bookshelf Speakers and a Onkyo DX c390 6 CD changer so I’m into for just about $890. That is why I haven’t bought a lot of the 45rpm records. I only have 3 the two Phil Collins ones and I just picked up Morrison Hotel by the Doors used in NM condition for $30 and they sound good but I imagine they would sound even better on a upgraded system and since I just bought all my stuff this past February/March upgrading anything in my system is a long ways off 🤣🤣🤣

That is one of my favourite albums of all time! It’s fantastic. I also love that you are using some vintage components.

If one wants a Version of Rumours totally quiet and totally without pops and crackles, I strongly advise to the 45rpm CD Version!

You are not just settleing you are going back to an old friend.

I picked this up Last week also: Sounds Awesome on my Flunace RT85n with A ATVM95ml :) Get it Because it needs to be in a Classic Rock Vinyl Collection.

Again, anyone who owns a turntable immediately thinks he or she is an "audiophile."

I appreciate re-releases because not every collector is born the same year. I never had the opportunity to buy the original or the 30th-anniversary edition; therefore, I am happy to have the 50th-anniversary edition, which is still affordable. In 50 years, people will be happy to find the 100th-anniversary edition in their stores at a reasonable price. Only the audiophile sound, close to the analog master tape and as intended by the original artist, should matter, not the question of multiple re-releases.

Where is the listing for this release? Thank you

Does this guy understand the difference between a remix and a remaster? It sure doesn’t sound like it. I’m glad you have passion for the music and these sorts of comparisons, but many, many times when you said remaster you were talking about a remix (that of course would have to be mastered).

do you have to get another vax to buy it ?

I am glad you mentioned the Warfedale Anniversary speakers not needing a subwoofer. I have a friend with a pair. Indeed, if they don't play as low as a sub can, they are not rolled off in the lower bass. It is amazing how these phenomenal speakers can give the "presence" of very low bass, even though they may be rolled off delicately through an extremely historic amount of design, what we audio freaks call "tweaking." After all, they are the celebration of decades of continuous production, as "Anniversary Edition" suggests. An additional subwoofer would have to be extremely "focused" to blend with these delightful speakers and not color their soundstaging abilities. Set up, on proper stands in a good room, they provide satisfying musicality without any additional augmentation to the lower range.

Great video! Ordered from the InGroove and can't wait to give it a listen! Thanks for the reminder on this one.

I already own 6 versions of this album: the original vinyl, the first CD release, the Mobile Fidelity vinyl and CD, the Discovery box CD set, and the 5.1 mix on SACD. Plus I can stream the lossless digital 50th version on Qobuz so I'm not buying any more!! It's interesting sometimes to compare the differences from one to another.

Wow When Someone does a Review all the Audiophile Snobs come out.
