Re: The Great CD vs Vinyl debate

Vinyl for the groove, digital on the move! Agree that Japanese vinyl is always the best but modern vinyl is also perfectly fine. Pressing plants vary. I compared an original pressing of the Banshees Tinderbox vs new. The new was by far better! Possibly due to it being remastered. Who knows. What I d...

Re: Strangler in the light

Re: Strangler in the light

Why do you have no interest in the book? Jim I spoke with JE a couple of times and he was very pleasant. Not an exuberant chap perhaps but a decent sort.

Re: Morrisey

Yes he has recorded. But then gets into a row with the record companies who he sold them to and tehy say, sod you and don't release!
