As I like John Mellencamp I was intrigued by the mention of his new analogue album, turns out its been stalled by C19 and is now scheduled for later this year. Fingers crossed its decent

Re: Pure anologue modern vinyl
The day I ask myself , how was this recorded is the day a blow my head off
Sure , perhaps they could sound better , but for instance Duke 1980 recorded s the farm Surrey is 3 blokes creating magic not sat round the table discussing recording techniques .
Each record is a slice of history , I don't care how it was recorded.

Re: Pure anologue modern vinyl
And conversely I care passionately how its been recorded, which studio/s it was recorded in, who produced it, mixed it & mastered it, because without that understanding the history is no where near complete. And sorry to be a kill joy but I have no desire to indulge in any form of self harm, in fact I am as happy as happy can be

History of what?
Stuff that ain't important. It's a record , listen to it .
It's analogous to those people who are more interested in how a novel was written than the actual novel.

In your opinion and I am perfectly happy that your opinion differs, it would be boring if we all thought the same ( in my opinion )Daniel Quinn wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 8:41 pm History of what?

Re: Pure anologue modern vinyl
My opinion and the truth are inextricably linked
As Nietzsche noted "artists are the manure from which there art grows. "
Although I do believe some people are interested in manure .

Re: Pure anologue modern vinyl
I like the idea of being knowledgeable about recordings, but I just bung the record on and listen. With the flitting nature of streaming, half the time I don't even look at what the track is called...

Re: Pure anologue modern vinyl
I also dip in and out via Tidal or 6 music but when I find something that's a bit special then I start digging into to the " who, what, where" side of things. There's no right or wrong, how can there be when music is such an emotional and subjective matter ?
