I honestly did not know she could sing like this! I only knew her from "Cliffhangers" and "The Cannonball Run."


Here's That Rainy Day:

I used Audacity to trim out a bad drop at about 0:39 of Track01. You can still hear a short bump in the song though.

It's the Summer of Love!

It brought me flashbacks to my 80s Sony mini system with the graphic equalizer and led display.

Bipolar System Disorders / Re: video on comparison of resistors

I'm fortunate to have a Subratek Chardonnay tube preamp and a recent purchase of a Hattor Big with a New Class D opamp and the Amtrans AMRG resistors. After having the Chardonnay in for a few weeks, I put the Hattor back in tonight and am very much enjoying the additional detail and purity of tone.

I did a search on utube and happened to find this brief clip with an Indian audiophile visiting in Japan with the president of Amtrans.

Very nice, Paul! I saw the spectrum analyzer photo and for a very brief moment, had a 60's Haight-Ashbury kinda flashback. Whew...it's gone now 😆  Have fun and enjoy!

Update!

Finally pulled the trigger on the 'spectrum analyzer' display I've been wanting to try.




Got an upgraded LPSU for the streamer, coax upgraded from Belden/BJC to Geistnote Apogee Wyde Eye and Oyaide Silver.

The braided cable dc cable is a guitar effects cable also from Oyaide.







Great fun! The best upgrade was the light display!

Pink Floyd: Live at Empire Pool
Wembly, London UK during the
British Winter Tour of 1974

Title: No Room Upon the Hill

Date: Performed November 16, 1974

SQ: A (outstanding audience recording)

Source: 1st Generation copy of the
master discs

Liberated in its lowest generation
form yet, in SHN-only format, by
Man of Leisure Music (MoLM) May, 2004
using the FloydArtifacts listserv
and Sharing the Groove.  MD5 codes
listed at bottom.

Mastering: Transferred to disc by a
close friend of the taper.  Someone
who obviously knew what they were doing.
(Thank you)  This is one of the few
departures from our signature re-mastering
methods; MoLM has not performed any sound
alteration, nor speed correction to this
phenomenal recording.

Background: Obtained in a trade with the
taper, Man of Leisure Music (MoLM)
has secured a 1st gen clone of the
master discs.  We're ever so grateful.

This is the very well known concert
performed during the British Winter Tour
in late 1974.  This night, the BBC recorded what
many Pink Floyd fans consider to be the finest
live version of Dark Side of the Moon.
To my understanding, the BBC did not record
the first set of this timeless concert.

Here it is, the full concert, and one of
the better audience recordings you will
ever hear of Pink Floyd.

Recently, the pre-FM broadcast soundboard
edition of the BBC-recorded second set,
including the Echoes encore, was liberated
on Sharing the Groove and the FloydArtifacts
listserv. (thanks Boss Binth for grabbing it!)

Man of Leisure Music would like to now
share this audience version with the Pink Floyd
Trading community to compliment the pre-FM
broadcast soundboard roio.  Together, they
represent the two definitive recordings of
this historic date in Rock and Roll history.

102 - Raving and Drooling.
103 - You Gotta Be Crazy.
201 - Speak To Me.

203 - On The Run.f
204 - Time-Breathe (Reprise).
205 - The Great Gig In The Sky.
206 - Money.
207 - Us And Them.
208 - Any Colour Tou Like.
209 - Brain Damage.
