an awesome album.. can't wait to hear it! thanks 86ed!
Dngruss said…
Thanks 86ed.

This is a great album, I have a rip of the DCC CD and from memory it was pretty good. I suspect your vinyl rip will probably be an improvement over the CD version.

Like I said I like this album, but "Luck of The Draw" kinda draws me in a little more.
86ed said…
I agree, Luck of the Draw is great too, but DCC copies go for crazy money... this one here was a fortunate find. If I should stumble upon Luck, I'll grab it too.
Dngruss said…
Yeah I imagine they are kinda pricey.

Just a heads up, there's no artwork folder. I only mention it because you usually do the artwork and maybe just forgot it in your excitement getting the rip out.
86ed said…
Ugggh... okay, link for artwork folder will appear in a few minutes, sorry, don't want to wreck the torrents.
Dngruss said…
lol I hear ya...sorry I had to go and get all artworky on ya.
86ed said…
It's there now.
Dngruss said…
Thanks, appreciate it.

And thanks for not going all postal when artwork was mentioned. :roll:

This sounds fabulous. By the way, track B2 is not "Too Soon to Hell". :wink:
pastyskin said…
Fabulous, thanks!
Rocky said…

Thanks, 86ed!
doofus said…
Thanks, 86ed! This sounds much better than my standard issue cd that I bought back when. :)
matteo2014 said…
Thank you!! Sounds really great.
There seems to be a skip @ 02:50 during Real Man though ?
86ed said…
I don't hear it? Checked both version??
darkstar said…
Thank you very much for the first Bonnie Raitt vinyl rip I know about. She's made a lot of great albums in the 70s and 90s but nobody - except you - seems to rip them.
