Re: What's Everyone Listening to?

The 8 disc Bobbie Gentry box set released last fall that arrived at my house yesterday. Never having heard anything other than Billie Joe, I am absolutely blown away. It's like a precious artifact from a far away place.

Re: It's Great to Be Alive! Release Date 10/30/2015

Every single new release I want on vinyl ends up getting delayed. I think I'll order the CD-only version from Amazon. You get free MP3 downloads with a CD purchase so that way I'll have an acceptable place-holder version on the same day I buy it.

Great stuff. I started listening to vinyl again recently after many years of CDs and I'm amazed at how much better it sounds. The only music I've heard that sounds better has been totally remixed and remastered from the source tape stuff on DVDs and played back in DTS (like Genesis and King Crimson)...
