Is there any "audiophile grade" Reggae out there on CD?
Love reggae. I particularly enjoyed Stick Figure's "Set in Stone" last year. Big full sound. I also think that some of Lucky Dube's later works like Tax Man sound pretty darn good. Of course it helps that Dube had the voice of an angel. And Ziggy ... 
Great New Linda Ronstadt Live
Picked this up yesterday after reading this post. I had forgotten what a fine voice she had. My only criticism is the use of drum synthesizers during the performance which was the hip new tech in 1980 I guess. In 2019, the sound is more annoying t...

Great Slaw. Let me know what you think. I am curious to know what you vinyl fans think of this record. The old school recording method should sound really fine.

Unofficial (Bootleg) LPs
I love old bootlegs. I had a nice collection of vinyl bootlegs from the late 70's and early 80's. It was the epitome of cool to play U2, Stones, and even the Grateful Dead bootlegs in college. While the worst editions had horrendous sound quality,...
