The Beer and Vinyl Thread

[ripps1]

Where? Its here and gone.

Here is Montrose and Ouray CO, this corner of CO is usually last in the distro chain. But by the time you read this it'll likely be sold out--Odd13 hoppy stuff moves fast.

I picked some up on Sunday at Tipsy’s in Littleton.

Twin Peaks return Bang Bang Bar/Roadhouse comp on Cherry Pie vinyl and a Pipeworks Passionfruit Guppy session IPA tall boy from last weekends trip to Chicago.

Great album. Although Takk is my personal favorite.

Outrageous Cherry on orange wax paired with an outrageously terrible aberration of a beer from Voodoo in red wax.

Side A of the record outlasted the beer, cause drainpour.

Weird old Japanese psych and a nice smooth DIPA from High Branch.

 

[kbuzz1]

Underrated...all of it

Clash - Give Em Enough Rope
Granite Falls Brewing - Antagonist BABW (#BIL)

Mellowing out before bed:

Mellowing out or trying to go to sleep while in a weepy state of depression?

Was honestly not playing because of Fall, but admittedly sounds good during autumn weather.

I must be going through something, subconsciously of course?

busted out one of my fave records in prep for trick or treating. FYI, wild animals sound scarier on vinyl.

 

[kbuzz1]

It's happening again. #1album of 2017. Sorry

 

[kbuzz1]

Inside of a record just now, why I love music....

 

[robertgoulet]

I haven’t listened to this comp in years and there’s so much great and weird **** on it from U-Men, Helios Creed, Lonely Moans, and tons more.

Bought a couple records today

 

[coldstorage]

My two fave husker du records in memory of grant hart....

And a really great post from the best record store in the state:

Late pass here but mindblown that zen arcade (aka one of the greatest albums of all time) isn't in your top two Dü lps! Though I agree these are rippers as are all HU albums.

Rest in power, Grant.

Celebrating my good fortune of returning to a home that wasn't lost in the fire with a favorite record and a special pour. Taking a moment to appreciate things that could just as easily be in the abyss.

Thanks BrandoSF

I keep getting ads for a U Turn Orbit turntable on my Facebook feed. Anyone have any experience with them? I've been wanting to get a player for a while now but don't know where to start. Looking for any recommendations for something that won't kill my bank account.

Audio Technica make good entry-level simple to use tables. My wife wouldn't let me take up too much room when I starting pushing to get my set-up going again. So I opted for one of their tables with the built-in preamp so that I could just plug some bookshelf speakers into it. You can turn that option off though if you wanted to do your own thing. I got a bluetooth model too, so I can still crank **** up while kids are asleep.

Obviously I'm not doing myself any favors with sound quality, but it was the only way I was gonna get to listen to my collection again. Have had mine for maybe a year or so and it gets a lot of use and no problems whatsoever.

Budget REGA from what I hear. Reviews are mixed but you could do worse for the money and a perfectly adequate "starter" turntable.

Do you have a turntable literate friend who could inspect it on arrival / dial in tracking for you? Heard some people have been unhappy with the tone arm but it's gonna be hard for someone to QC that over a message board...

Fat White Family to start the weekend. The beer is ok but a little wonky.

 

[kbuzz1]

Perceptionists for me.

$8 BA coffee stout getting the job done.
