How's the sound of Gilmore's "On An Island" on vinyl? I was given a promo copy of this on cd when it was first being released and found it very thin and lifeless. Later I ran into a blu-ray of "Remember That Night" which is Gilmore live at the Royal Albert Hall. The first half of that performance is " On An Island ". Check it out if you get a chance. Musicaly it's far superior to my cd version.

One of Gilmour's best, nice find!
is one of my least favorite. she had lost some of her ability by then and she hooted at points. i just cant bring myself to play it again. when i saw it i thought 'oboy, sarah in japan. after one play i was undone.
...regards...tr
Sure, she's older, her voice has matured and she must compensate for lost timber but she could still inhabit a tune like no other. This performance shows just what a true jazz artist Sarah was.
Just my humble opinion...

Indeedy-do!!

Big Ronnie Earl fan here! Big enough that I paid $110 to have a sealed copy of "Still River" on vinyl. No regrets.
I've seen him play with the Katz, Hansen, Carey Broadcasters band twice.
See ya. Dave
I think this is the first time I've seen Ronnie Earl's name on VA!
And what I wouldn't give for a vinyl copy of "Live in Europe", if one was ever pressed....
Enjoy!

Simplify.
So I'm going through dozens to pick the best pressing to keep in each case. Just discovered I have four of Jeff Beck "Blow By Blow"!
It's all good, as I'm finding out what lurks on the shelves that I have forgotten. With around 7,000 LPs that easily happens, as does buying duplicates. I figure if I remove unnecessary duplicates I'll have room to insert the hundreds of newer ones sitting on the floor.
I have the Rock Roots: Genesis LP which seems to contain the one you listened to, plus a few extra tracks. Now I'll have to play it as it is out on the floor and so far unheard.

Hope so!!

Hadn't really thought of it, what with the cost of shipping to the US from Canada (our post office is not conducive to mail-order business).
However, if I have anything worthwhile/unusual I may post a list to see if anyone is interested. My plan is to give my kids first choice, then a friend, then the used vinyl store for trade-ins.

Sold all 4,000 of my albums back in '92 and trying to find a bunch of them again as they did not make the cut to being on cd :(

Will do. In a fit of madness, I got rid of all the LPs I had on CD, just before my brother-in-law convinced me to listen to vinyl again. Mostly original pressings only played once or twice then taped. I'm also still looking for some of them.
I feel your pain...

people I've spoken to do not care for it but for me it creates a mood and space that fits me very nicely. I find myself reaching for it more often than the others which are absolute faves.
I just bought a 3rd original pressing of B by B Saturday along with a 6th original pressing of Crown of Creation. I can't pass on music that has much meaning for me. I envision passing them along to some virgins at some point.

Maybe I didn't give From Genesis to Revelation enough time to appreciate it properly, but I decided to cull my copy early this year.
There were some quite strikingly original moments on it, but I couldn't help feeling that it was something you might expect a bunch of schoolkids to come up with in the late 60s - to my ears, the lyrics are unbearably corny and much of the music sounds very dated.
There are moments in Trespass that make me feel the same, but overall that to me was the point where Gabriel and Co really started to take off.

Gabriel is clearly exploring and searching for the artist he is to become. The overall feeling of this LP is for me perfect. I appreciate genius even in its early, raw stages. It is far from the smooth pop sound that post Gabriel Genesis would become and that works for me.BTW some of my favorite music was created by a bunch of schoolkids in the late 60s.

"BTW some of my favorite music was created by a bunch of schoolkids in the late 60s."
Perhaps it's just that I was in that very same English school system as the young Gabriel, Banks and Rutherford (albeit a few years later) - certain things really bring it back strongly, whether making me squirm or inducing a warm nostalgic glow. Funnily enough, listening to boy sopranos in choirs have the former effect, even now. David Gilmour's "Fat Old Sun", on the other hand... :)
