Hello Harvey, it’s Sunday afternoon and here I lounge in my Eames chair listening to The Crusaders - Southern Comfort, as recommended by your good self. I streamed it and then bought in on EBay and collected it today . My my this record would have totally disappeared under my RADAR and that’s a miserable thought, as I so love this record. Like you my appreciation of The Crusaders started and ended with Street Life, but as individual musicians in the band I have many of their records , but as the collective known as the Crusaders I have none, so how very rewarding to hear about this gem from your channel . Serendipity in life can bring big joys. Best David
Looking excellent; viewing your collection and set up makes my heart race faster! Your large and enviable Prince collection prompts me to ask as to whether you have bought the recent Prince Box set live in Syracuse 1985, and as it’s a bit pricey…..would you recommend buying the Vinyl Harvey? I agree with your previous comments on Sign of the Times as being an unadulterated masterpiece , so should I throw caution to the wind and dive in to buy live in Syracuse? Best wishes , david
Hi David, I’m still considering whether to invest in the Syracuse box set. In terms of live albums I have a bit of a love hate relationship with them. There are some truly fantastic examples of live records but I still don’t own Controversy or For You on vinyl. So my internal dialogue is kind of “why would I buy an augmented live collection when there are still key Prince releases I don’t own?” That’s just how my mind works as a collector. I tell you what is on my list the Record Store Day June 18th Gold Experience vinyl. Not a great Prince album but a very good mid to late period work. In my opinion.
@@spinningtheblackcircle8554 oh right, good tip, I am with you on The Bill Withers live at Carnegie Hall, a worthy 5 star record, I play it often, with outstanding vocals and tracks .. I can’t write left handed …would bring a tear to a glass eye, soul in concert at its most sublime. Cheers.
Not sure but I house all of my records inside anti stat MoFI, Tonar or Nagaoka sleeves so not sure it could leak through all of that through to the record.
