I could listen to Michael all day long. The two of you always have an interesting discussion; thanks for taking us along.
Good stuff man. The Fremer interviews always crack me up it’s like a three person conversation with two people. You are having a conversation with Michael and then Michael is having a conversation with himself and you 😂 it’s good fun. Keep it up
Thank you. Will do 🙏
Great show. Michael Fremer as a guest, I click.
Thank you. Was a lot of fun.
Always an entertaining conversion with Michael. Greetings ✌🏼
Yes. Was a lot of fun. Thanks Mazzy. 🙏
Another great stream Steve ✊.
I love Michael F he’s my go to guy on all things vinyl.
But I beg to differ on Michael’s Yes Album opinion .
Michael is quite correct stating the original has a bit more punchy bass.
Overall the whole piece the AP 75 kills the original.
The clarity on Bill Brufords drum fills has never been revealed until now.The space around Jon Anderson’s vocals is a joy to behold.Kevin Gray did an amazing job on the two Yes titles defining in the series so far in my opinion.
🙏
Steve, You do a great job with Fremer... Thank you.
Thank you. 🙏
Zulke shows wil ik vaker luisteren. Hier steek je wat van op. Super.
Awesome to see Michael "The Gravy Train" Fremer on the Channel. Mr. Fremer is always a treat.
Hey Steve - fantastic to get the heads up on this catch up with Michael about the Patrick Leonard album. I have been streaming it constantly- it’s a wonderful album that I would not have otherwise heard about. I will definitely buy on vinyl asap.
I watch all your videos and enjoy all the music chat you cover. Thank you!
Great to you and Michael! This is a good listen... Thanks
Much appreciated. 🙏
Great video, Steve! Michael made some interesting suggestions that I plan to check out - particularly the Patrick Leonard album.
Yes. Thank you Fred. The Leonard album is on my list.
Interesting, lively and wide ranging conversation gents - thank you very much! You guys are great. Thank you for all you both do to help us up our audio hardware and music collections - cheer! 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yep, my OG Atlantic Piros Yes Album is 🔥
I enjoyed this interview immensely. I am glad that I viewed it a second time.
As fantastic as that A75 The Yes Album, I could not imagine it getting any better! Michael, please bring that original to Audio Advice in August in this weekend!!! I'm looking forward to seeing you!
I will do that!
Great episode Steve! And hey I was at that same *The Beatles in Mono* event @ Electric Lady Studios in NYC that Mikey Fremer referenced at the end of this video. At this event I got to meet the great Ken Scott and even got my Horzu copy of MMT autographed and got a picture taken with him (with Fremer in the shot) LOL
Thats a cool story. Thanks for sharing.
Yes 1995, my 1st CD player, i was buying 70's compilation CD's & Crusaders Cd's because they were cheeper than new CD releases, then one day I picked up a vinyl turntable for my setup ( knowing I would get a better sound with correct setup, i'd read in uk Hi Fi world Magazine as a regular subscriber ) then I was buying 50pence Vinyl for Manhattan Trasfer & getting fab sound stage.
Fantastic interesting interview with Mr Fremer. Thanks for this Steve. Unfortunately Jaqueline Du Pres died from Multiple Sclerosis.
Much appreciated. Thank you.
Great show as always Steve. Michael seemed as you say, very magnanimous with his knowledge and his time.Don't have that much to add sadly. Or thank fully in your case. But, the talk about Edwin Astley, in relation to Pete Townshend "Rough Mix" album. I particularly found very interesting. Father to Jon. of course. For many of us Brits, Edwin has been synonomous with TV themes, from our past.He composed if I'm not mistaken such classics as "The Saint" with Roger Moore, "Danger Man" (aka Secret Agent Man) in the states, "Department S" and many others.Also a brilliant musician and conductor in his own right.The connection with Pete Towshend being Pete married Edwin's daughter, Karen.Jon's sister.Wow! Never know where these conversations are going to. I certainly did not expect to hear talk of Jacqueline Du Pre's name. An incredibly talented cellist.Passed away so young I thought due to M.S.So sad.Great show as always. Now I will listen intently to your other show with Michael, but will keep my thoughts to myself.
Thanks for watching. Was a lot of fun.
I totally agree with Mr. Fremer about the DCC pressings. I had an original DCC Aqualung which most people would hafta change their pants if they talk about it, but even on my earlier, FAR more basic systems, I always honestly felt it sounded very dull and lifeless. I MUCH prefer the original MFSL pressing which is far livelier and dynamic. I traded my DCC Aqualung to another SHF member for a lovely MFSL Into the Labyrinth, a fantastic sounding 1st UK R.A.Y.E.S Permanent Waves and a nice 1st pressing of Cannonball Adderley. All for a pressing that I didn't even like... 😊
Good evening, the video at the studio with Joe Lavabo is highly recommended. I would be one of the few French people to have seen it.
I have an RL LZ2. Now I don't know if it's one of the good ones, or one of the bad ones. But I will say, I quite like my Jimmy Page master. Subjective. Many thanks, Steve, as usual.
Toy Matinee was re-released in 2022 on MOV. Features Guy Pratt of Floyd, Gilmour and Saucerful of Secrets.
I burned 3 calories listening to my UHQR Gaucho, got up 3 times to change sides. It works out to 1 calorie per side. My doctor says I'm on the right track, just thought I'd let you guys know. Great show!
😂😂😂
Steve, in most of the answers from Michael Fremer on the reissue quality you will get a positive answers because of courtesy . I know you don't like that. That is why Michael 45 focused on OGs. But the good think is that Michael Fremer is pretty honest and at least we can find that some reissues are not good.
The Yes Album - I agree with the US Piros 71 and the 77 Piros. More natural - the instruments stand out more naturally from the background. The AP75 - all the instruments sound similar in level making it more 2dimentional. The UK PLum 1st is shrill on Howe's guitar.
BTW, you genuinely seemed to be having a good time with Fremer...
Yes I really enjoy our conversations.
The Rickie Lee Jones audiophile reissue is most likely Pop POP.
I enjoy Michael framer because he doesn’t kiss up to Rhino.
good one....
I am fine with the price because of the superior sound and quality. To me it is hard to find a great condition OG and ig you find a VG++ or NM it most likely will cost the same or more
Who UHQR incoming!
Who?
rixvspinner..Calbi LZII recut? Are you sure you're not talking about Lee Hulko? LH often used RL's notes to recut.
I think the next UHQR is Who’s Next !!!
Don't bet the farm on it.
@@stevewestman7774 Tommy?
At 17:40 did Michael Fremer drop a strong hint that the upcoming Rock-based UHQR in August is going to a Who title (Who’s Next most likely)? 🤔
Don't bet the farm on it.
@@stevewestman7774I bow to your much better sources. 😀 Tbh, I’m hoping for Nevermind, but suspect it’s not that either.
@@James_Electric Nevermind would be awesome.
@@James_Electric no chance
I think it's important to note that Michael Fremer still has all his hair.
I know right. I'm jealous.
@@stevewestman7774 Likewise. But: we still have all our own teeth! a boast that should headline any Personal ad in a Dating channel.
Micahel gets mad at all of us and then he kisses and makes up.
🫶
Let Michael know, I just turned 58, but I’m available for adoption.
Will do. 😂
Is that a real Moon 🌘 photo
😂
Does Mr. Westman live under a rock? Count Bassey? And he said it twice. He didn't know how to pronounce Count Basie? He'd never heard of him?
Haha
In fairness it’s l from 60 -70 years ago
Who? Never heard of him.
Remember now... He *is* Canadian...
@@latheofheaven I have a ton of jazz everything from ECM, to spiritual to hard bop, etc etc and I don’t own a single Count Basie
About the "Mandoki" record. This guy is a fraud, he just puts musicians together because he gets funds from the Hungarian government, he is actually not a player, he just rents a good studio, calls good musicians and put his name on it. I am a musician, I know guys who play for him.
