Keith Anderson Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I'm looking for this album, doesn't seem to be any reissued I can find, does anyone know if there is anywhere
Candyflip Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I see the original on eBay all the time, if that's any help?
Gee Emm Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I'm looking a very good 2nd hand copy. eBay 2nd hand vinyl for me is hit and miss, mostly miss!
Goatboy Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Quite a few for sale on Discogs http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=374598
warren2503 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 its a great album much better on vinyl that on CD Its in my high rotation list -- Good luck with the search
Keith Anderson Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 Yeah I have the CD and thought wow the vinyl must be great hence the search. I've been a bit hit and miss with second hand some rated very good + have been garbage and other rated very good have been close to mint. Guess ill be taking another gamble soon though as I want to get this album
cheekyboy Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 It's a great album on vinyl, Keith and I've had my copy from new back in the early '90s I think. I thought I had a second copy of this that I picked up years later, but I can't find it, but that could just be my filing system. I'll keep looking for it and let you know if I find it. Cheers, Keith
hired goon Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Bummer dude ... I had multiple copies at one point. Seems to be easy to find though, since so many were sold. --Geoff
Anthony John Colbert Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I picked up an original Dmm pressing awhile back. Great sounding album with some strong songs
Dr Good Vibe Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Think I might have one sealed somewhere DMM yep good album. Have a system light yours Keith.
Keith Anderson Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 I have a DMM vinyl of Robben Fords "Talk to your Daughter" and its superb, and cost me $6 and it near mint, total bargain
Candyflip Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Is there a thread about good DMM pressings? there should be...
soundfan Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Is there a thread about good DMM pressings? there should be... I'm sure I read a thread about DMM on the Steve Hoffman forums a while back. And agree, the self titled debut from Tracy Chapman is a ripper both in sq and content. 1
Candyflip Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I'm sure I read a thread about DMM on the Steve Hoffman forums a while back. And agree, the self titled debut from Tracy Chapman is a ripper both in sq and content. You did (so did I) - but I meant here, so we could talk about Oz pressings that are decent. For example - 'Tango in the Night', Fleetwood Mac (sorry for thread hijack!)
metal beat Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 I used to see dozens of the Aussie lp in used lp stores around Sydney. I would think Melbourne would be similar. From memory the Aussie pressing sounds fine.

For example - 'Tango in the Night', Fleetwood Mac (sorry for thread hijack!) I have the local wea aka cbs pressing of Tango. Agree sounds superb and have no desire to look for another copy. Must be all of 110gm vinyl too. Imagine how good the 180gm vinyl would have sounded Edited June 19, 2013 by turntable

ArthurDent Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) its a great album much better on vinyl that on CD Its in my high rotation list -- Good luck with the search Would depend on what CD you're listening to as the original 1988 Elektra pressings (Germany and USA) are ranked up there with the best the format can deliver. And it was an all digital recording. Edited June 19, 2013 by KenTripp
Dolphy Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Try using Google search Site:Stereo.net.au topic This might help finding items on this forum
chimay Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 http://www.discogs.com/Tracy-Chapman-Tracy-Chapman/release/3619181 This is a very good pressing of this album. It appears only irregularly on ebay though and the price can creep up a bit sometimes. I am a great fan of these quiex type releases on translucent vinyl. They're always really quiet and if the lp was well mastered to begin with then you'll generally find them amongst the best available. Cheers, Trevor 1
diesel459 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 These people are very good to deal with. http://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=425287&curr=AUD
Hergest Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 These people are very good to deal with. http://eil.com/shop/moreinfo.asp?catalogid=425287&curr=AUD Worst spammers in the business though. I used to use Esprit all the time and then i began to get bombarded with emails nearly every day suggesting new titles for me to purchase. There was no way to unsubscribe and i vowed a couple of years ago never to use them again after i politely asked them to stop sending the damn things but they continued anyway. I would block one from one address and another one would come through from a different person. Dreadful way of doing business. 1
