"The Breeze"


I received this yesterday, and I'm greatly disappointed. The pressing is of poor quality, and the music fairly uninspiring.

I've been a fan of EC for most of my adult life, and I expected better of him. And, it's only three sides!

Side one is pressed like the leadout grooves on some LP's, they waver in and out more than a quarter of an inch, throwing pitch out the window.

Disappointing.

I guess it makes some sense in that lengths of albums originally released on vinyl in its heyday was typically 40-50 minutes or so. CDs offer 70 minutes. Newer releases straight to CD take that into account. Thats somewhere between 1.5 and 2 traditional 33 1/3 vinyl lps. So that math says 3 sides is right in teh ballpark.

For $30 a pop, a premium over CD, they could add some more useless bonus tracks in there though still. :^)
Odd man out here but I'm really enjoying it - just got the CD yesterday. Fans of JJ should check it out, cheers.
MoFi, you still get Feedbands records ? if so how you like the latest Smooth Hound Smith ? I think its the best one from Feedbands yet.

Good Listening

Peter...yes, I still have my Feedbands subscription. I haven't had a chance to listen to the new one yet. Glad to hear you like it.

Hey, I wanted to publically say how cool and fantastic it was of you to give a pair of your speakers to Eric Leefe. It's people like you that make this hobby so much more than a hobby. You are a true gentleman. Bless you sir.
