I've been doing a bit of online research and I'm even more undecided than ever. From reading a few forums the amp I've got (Naim Nait 2) seems to already have a much better than average phono stage (it's always sounded good to me). I'm a bit wary of spending a lot of money for a very marginal improvement. I suppose the only thing to do is ask the nice chaps at the local hi-fi store if I can road test one. 

A Naim fan, eh? Start saving up!

I watched the launch on the internet last week, just been added to my wish list when I win the lottery. When you watch how it's made and the components that are used you can actually see were the money has gone.

Record fair in Hull tomorrow so hopefully my vinyl collection will have some additions. Picked up a 180gm copy of Arctic Monkeys new album today very good indeed.

Indeed

 

I've got a feeling I might have to forego the 'Naim for Bentley' offering however.

I'll be heading down there in a wee while, hoping you haven't scooped up all the good stuff.

Probably a good job I didn't. I did have a chat with the bloke on their stall about servicing my turntable and ended up buying one of those record cleaning 'machines' they were selling. Really pleased with it. I've been buffing up all my old Creedence LPs. They sound like new, not bad considering I've had them all about forty years.

I use those paint pads from B&Q £1.50 they are the perfect size for an LP.

Picked up a copy of Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever uk first issue at the record fair for £7 which I've since found out is a bit of a bargin as it goes for over £30 on eBay, so very pleased with myself. Also picked up

Tom Petty - Hard Promises

Prefab Sprout - From Langley Park To Memphis and Protest Songs

Bob Marley and The Wailers - Exodus

B52's - Cosmic Thing

I don't have many ambitions but one of them is to not set foot in B&Q ever again in my life.

Visited Alan's records in East Finchley yesterday. The haul comprises:

Keely Smith - Politely!
Lamont Dozier - Bittersweet
Leon Russell & New Grass Revival - Live
Mel & Tim - Starting all over again
Ry Cooder - The Slide Zone
The Triffids - Field of Glass

[Futtocks]

A familiar song, in its original form. Not hugely different - just enough to be slightly disconcerting.

Ry Cooder - The Slide Zone

Oops! Not 'Zone', 'Area'.

Fairport are playing at the Trades Club in Hebden Bridge in May I believe. 

Sandy Denny won't be with them though.

[Wolford6]

Ta for that; I'll make a note.

Tom Petty my favourite track from the Wildflowers album It's Good To Be King

Tom Petty my favourite track from the Wildflowers album It's Good To Be King

I really love Tom Petty, but 'Wildflowers' somehow, despite being a popular album, just didn't do it for me. But 'Good to be King' is a pretty good song.

Not a typical Petty album but I love it trying to hunt down a vinyl copy for less than £100 is proving impossible.
