@octothorpe My guess is that part of the downside is the expense of the machine, which would have to be amortized over an awful lot of pressings…

Coldplay - A Rush of Blood to the Head@octothorpe (I purposefully bought their EcoRecord releases to see what the surfaces were like on multiple LPs. Initial results are quite promising, but I have no idea how long they'll wear, given they're PET and not PVC.)

Note that this is a new "Ecorecord” pressing, which isn't pressed at all, but rather it's injection moulded. A pristine example, and a promising technology…

This is definitely something I’d buy just for the creative presentation. Heh heh.@octothorpe @morrick I haven’t opened it yet - Z brought it back from Italy. But a local establishment has used it in cocktails I’ve had in the past - I don’t remember what notes it expressed.
Package is great, though. Ten stars, would point at it again.

Our hotel room is accessible, but there isn't anything obvious about it unless you know what to look for, e.g. a raised toilet and the sink has room to roll under for a wheelchair user.@octothorpe @jackbrewster (I can't believe I typoed that.)

Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers at Birdland - UgetsuArt Blakey’s Jazz Messengers at Birdland - Ugetsu
Given the majority of this music predates my consciousness of it, it’s always fun to review the personnel on the albums are make the historical connections, and sort of back-solve the importance of key players.
Here, Blakey puts together Wayne Shorter (sax, music director), Freddie Hubbard (trumpet), Curtis Fuller (trombone), Reggie Workman (bass) and Cedar Walton (piano) on a swinging, hard bop date at Birdland.

Yeah, I call bullshit, USPS (I live in a suburb of Boston, FYI):@tankgrrl I had one last week than went into customs, out of customs, to NJ, to Springfield, to Boston, into customs again, and was then delivered.
