More vinyl showing up in stores

[Jenn[_2_]]

I was in LA this weekend to celebrate my birthday (lesson with a good
guitarist and friend, followed by a concert at McCabe's by that same
guitarist and friend), and I went to Amoeba and other record stores.
Amoeba, the largest CD/LP store in Los Angeles, is obviously carrying
more vinyl than even a couple of months ago. A conversation with the
manager of the classical LP section verified that they are indeed
devoting more space to used and new LPs due to customer demand. I found
7 volumes of the Hanoncourt/Concentus Musicus Bach Cantata set on
Telefunken that I have been collecting and lots of other goodies. I
also found out that they are having a huge CD sale next weekend, so if
you are near LA, it might be worth the trip.

Well, it's the turntablists that are driving classical LP sales, you
know.

I've been listening to a lot of Cut Chemist, Kid Koala, DJ Spooky and
Boy Eats Drum Machine lately, so what the heck. Turntablists are aces
with me.

SHould have said new pressings... Classic Records, SPeakers Corner, etc.
But really the manager was speaking of all genres.

Now if we could only get some good, reasonably priced tables and
tonearms......I don't consider no-suspension lightweight tables with
MDF bases good.

Then get an SL-1200. Buy one for $500, throw on an SME arm, get a more
solid armboard, a $1000 cartridge and an outboard power supply and you
might be able to get better performance than a stock Rega P3-24 with a
$400 Dynavector.

Sorry I couldn't help. I don't know of any new classical vinyl, only
reissues.

Now you're talking about three grand for a DJ table.....Bull****.
What we need is a good cheap clone of a LP12, or a Merrillized AR, or
something along that line.

Yep, exactly. And people are doing it.

Finding nicely restored ARs and Thorens TD-124s might be the way to
go. I'm looking into it.
