I have recently brought back an old linear tracking direct drive turntable from the dead. It works well and I have gotten back into analog music. It is far better than digital, I didn't realize just how much I have missed it. Just got Fleetwood Mac Rumors on record and it sounds better than any digital copy I have heard. Glad to see analog making a come back.
Timmy G. Something tells me you're not British lol. I'm British born and bread and the only Brits I've ever heard talking like that are American... Ze German sounded pretty accurate though.
Great stuff, Mike! I love my vinyl.. all 6000 of them! Not as many as you have but they're very dear to me. My EX said "get rid of them!" You see who's still around....
I own both of your video's Mr. Fremer, just a wonderful presentation and your love for the music and the audio industry without all the hype is unparalleled!! :)
The Japanese are the best! Who else would take those classic American jazz records from the 50s and 60s and re-release them on the best vinyl with the original cover photos and liner notes in ENGLISH to preserve the look and feel, with just a removable paper band around it covered with Japanese writing to let the Japanese customer know what he was buying!
"The only right way ! The german way !" Made my day =D Truth is: I have records of all 3 types mentioned here, BUT also from every country mentioned here...^^
Well I learned something! And had a laugh. I will make this comment about vinyl: if you start out with a digital recording it's going to sound digital whether it goes on to vinyl or CD. The worst sounding recording I ever owned was an early digital LP of Bernstein conducting Petroushka. It was grating at every volume level. Not that there aren't great digital recordings. But people should remember that vinyl does not always mean analog.
I noticed this just the other day. I bought a British version of Queen 1. Sounded absolutely amazing. Like he said, how to take care of your record on the inner sleeve too. Just the other day I got my US vinyl for Queen 2. Complete opposite. Sounded terrible. All kinds of pops. But even the actual music just sounded really weird. The vocals were harder to hear. The symbols were way too loud. Not much bass. I guess I should be buying more of the British albums. Only problem is it’s like $20 to ship them over here. It sucks
How about those horrible cheapo plastic sleaves that crumple up and are impossible to get back into the outer sleave Mikey? The Japanese corrected this problem by making one side of the plastic inner sleave rounded, much easier that way. Just FYI.
I know exactly what you mean by those crumpled up plastic inner sleeves and I can't stand those rounded plastic inner sleeves for exactly the same reason.
I swear this dude know how to cheer someone up!
This is one of the best & funniest videos about vinyl i have ever seen. 😄😆🤣😃

totally choked on my coffee watching this when he said Slut Vinyl
There are certain songs that sound best recorded on slut vinyl; just don't have the correct tone on virgin vinyl.
This just made my morning..both informative and funny. Well done Sir 👍
That British accent was spot on.

The only criticism I have of the British records, is that the jacket is made too thin and flimsy.
Laughing unbelievably hard.

Real vinyl truth! The Yiddish Way! L'chiam! Death to all crappy streaming and FLAC nonsense.
