Wilco collection nearing completion!

The wind blew me back, via Chicago, in the middle of the night.

Get a good deal on Broken Arrow? I'd love to have it, but they're all on ebay for $150+

Jon,
It's possible your cartridge isn't set up right. Sometimes you can set the proper weight dor tracking purposes.  If it too heavy for your tonearm to lift, the azimuth and or weight is probably wrong.  Do u live near an audio store that might be able to help?
When properly set up, you should never have any of those problems.
Is your adapter a phono pre amp or something else?
By adapter, I mean it did not fit on my tone arm the way it came.  I had to put on an additional piece on the cartridge in order for it to fit my tone arm.  It is definitely too heavy.  I did a search of what kind of cart is recommended for my tt.  It was only around $50, which is a good happy medium between the $15 one I bought and the $150 one I was considering.  Hopefully this will clear the sound up.  I appreciate everyone's help!

Say friend, you got any more of that good sasparilla?

All are awesome. GH is the obvious classic but that Calexico lp is a fantastic find, especially on vinyl.  Guessing you must already have the I&W /Calexico Into The Reins lp too but the Black Light is also a special one that is really special on vinyl. Enjoy,
was some shakin' and some record playin'

All new vinyl, $50 shipped.











And, on CD via eBay...

The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

I dont actually but Im always on the lookout for it. I just got done listening to Black Light, it really is outstanding. Its a great headphones album, some of the vocal work just makes you smile ear to ear.

I have so much new stuff to go through, I came home with 18 albums today. In addition to the 4 I posted I raided my in laws garage after my wifes dad told me he had "5 or 6 boxes" out there. Mostly classic rock stuff but walked away with a few gems like Aretha Franklin Live at the Filmore, The Supremes doing British invasion covers, and Tug McGraw reciting Casey at the Bat. The latter two and a couple others should get me some decent value in trade.

Picked this up today, been after it since I started with vinyl. Found it in the "new used" section, interestingly enough it looks like someone broke up their Heady Nuggs box set. Why I have no idea, but their  bad decision is my gain...

I get the feeling I was late to the Joy Formidable party, most people thought it was lame, and I'm the guy wearing the lampshade.
