I love this. I fast forwarded to the good part.

Trini Lopez, singer of "If I had a hammer" died at 83.
Metallica released an album with a "hammer" on the cover...in '83.

I’m gonna be flying with LOT Airlines to Warsaw tomorrow. I hope this guy is going to be the pilot https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tadeusz_Wrona_(aviator)

It was amazing. He made it look really easy

0 injured, that’s something.

Woop, bought original presses of Powerslave and Number of the Beast. Bye bye Parlephone Remasters (Powerslave was ok, but they really butchered NoTB ).

They sound so much better, don't they? You can actually hear the singing and bass on Powerslave! As for TNOTB... I only started looking for the originals because the 2015 remaster sounded so muddy.

I'm also trying to figure out which of the post-NPFTD albums sound better as the originals; is there a good thread, or do I just need to check them out myself?

Powerslave sounds better, yeah. The guitars take up slightly more space than with the remaster (which must be why they eased up on the guitars anyways, but I prefer the original) It's not night and day though, as it is with TNOTB. The guitars are all but missing in the remaster...

I've got the X Factor reissue, but I haven't played in since the needle drop, so I can't speak for it. I think AMOLAD is better than the original issue. Brave New World as well. The master bus and multiband compression is a bit lighter, which is nice. You don't get that fatiquing 2-3 khz center screeching from the guitars which is the biggest reason it's a slightly better release. TBoS sounds a lot nicer on vinyl too, with a whooping circa 8-10dB more dynamics than the squashed CD master. I've never liked TBoS's production much (or the album itself), but this sounds a lot better - It sounds how it was intended to sound before the loudness-war mastering.

TFF sounds slightly better too.

Oh, that reminds me: if any of you have a vinyl rip of that album, could you DM me?

Which airport? Time to go party in the city centre!

 

[Black Wizard]

Going partying seems like a very irresponsible thing to do right now.

 

[Saapanael]

Chopin Airport. I ain’t going partying with my luggage and backpack in a city I don’t know.

Edit: I was considering a hotel but decided not to go for it.

Where are you going and what are you doing?

Time to unplug the computer from power and internet ... thunderstorm approaching, electronic appliances must be saved!

Where are you going and what are you doing?

Returning home from Greece.

This night would pass a lot quicker with a warm Corfiot girl in my arms.
