Great spins today, lads. Deaf, I am particularly feeling the vein you're mining today. I presume we are sharing a weather system as per usual.

[deafmetal]

@Mateo - Glad you are diggin' these vibes:

Love that Bora Bora, Deaf.

@Mateo - It's dreamy. I want to take my retirement on Cinevox Island.

hey deaf! i love how you played yourself through the smoothest island vibes (titties, palms and cocktails) to the wildest exotica gore scores (titties, palms and blood) yesterday!

[milliondollars]

played this one in the early morning. such a nice record to start the day with...

@million - Yeah, my boat took a wrong turn somewhere near this place called Isola dei Cannibali... thanks for the tip on that Salvanini LP. I have not seen it before.

I've returned to the mainland, but something still isn't right...

I love this cover. You're on a tear, man. A true ripper!

[deafmetal]

@Mateo - Thanks, this run is my consolation for being home sick with the flu and missing Carpenter Brut last night.

[deafmetal]

Spin number five or six of this one so far? Bury me with this LP.

Sucks that you've got the flu @deaf. Fingers crossed it passes quickly.

[Hatter313]

@deaf, feel better dude!

@mateo -

Motherfucker!!! You done gone and done it son! Good for you (and the Gods of 'Returning to the Scene of the Crime...)

I'm sure hoping to see this in the wild myself one of these glad to be alive days.

Jealous, never have been able to find revenge of the ninja!

Currently enjoying this demented circus music brilliance

Thanks all for the well wishes. I have been sick with this awful bug since last Friday, but seem to be on the mend today.

@Mateo - Excellent kung-fu grip to snag that Ninja.

The USS Enterprise NCC-1701 just landed:

First listen I am shocked at how incredible the mastering sounds. Will write more about the package in the show-off thread, after I pick my jaw up off the floor.

Mine arrived this week also and I'm looking forward to spinning it this weekend. Packaging is fantastic.

Mateo somewhere Sho Kosugi is smiling!
Good deal :)

[chiefbrody]

Hope you're feeling better soon @deaf. Some killer records should help you along the way. You've got that covered.

First spin today (this week, actually).

[chiefbrody]

It's confession time. Forgive me...

When I get a backlog, the doubles are the last to get played. I rarely get 80 minutes of consecutive spinning. Shame!

You're going to see me rectify that situation this morning. Living this so far. Probably more than 'Lizard'...

Very happy to report that my replacement white vinyl copy of The Thing arrived today, spinning it now and it sounds very good. Still a little tiny bit of crackle at the start of Side A, but I'll ascribe that to fact that there's a lot of music on this disc, so it's pushing at the edges a bit. Run in/outs can often be noisier for that reason I believe. Really nothing distracting though, and that opening few bars are incredibly subtle, soft and unforgiving. Cranking it way up, I have to say - this record sounds pretty damn powerful. Will attempt a comparison with my OG at some point.

All in all, it was worth the wait and once again WW customer service couldn't have been more helpful and straight with me. Shout out to Megan, doing the Lord's work over there! :D
