I mean, I'm sure the DJ has heard this audible garbage and thought to himself "I will definitely get fired if I play this". Dude, even if I liked YES, which I don't, I wouldn't brag about it. Their music is so fucking nerdy and lame.

That’s…not what I’m saying at all. The worst 70s Yes album is still a really really good album but quality isn’t the point I’m making anyway.
I’m saying that a band is daring and true to themselves when they are at the absolute peak of their earning and they refuse to make anything that can be made into a single. This is a 22 minute song and the other three tracks are about the same. Buy this album or see them live, that was how they wanted to work. If you can’t see how uncommon this is you probably don’t understand how important singles were back in the day.
Also the name is hilarious.
What a lot of assholes like you don’t understand is that any real Yes fan has a pretty robust sense of humor. “The revealing science of God” is comically pretentious…so is a double album based on Autobiography of a Yogi. They can also play circles around any band that has ever existed, any lineup they’ve ever had.
It’s not for you.

It would be bizarre if nobody ever did it but nowadays showing pictures of recently purchased items that will never be used is an entire genre of entertainment. I’m glad you’re not one of those people.

Why the fuck are you acting like this is your personal thread and setting rules or some shit? People's photos not pretentious enough for you? Then fuck off.
I know you can't read this since you blocked me a long time ago because you're a fucking pussy but everyone else can and they all hate you.

Doubles of these for juggle/beat chase practice, the Main Source 12” versions of both cuts got re-released on 7” 45 and sound great. Affordable options are appreciated because Atom 12” are hard to come by, and worn out the last couple I’ve found.
The L The Head Toucha I’d only every heard the A side on DJ Premier’s ‘New York Reality Check 101’ and I’m pleasently surprised with how good ‘It’s Your Life’ is…a AA side for sure.
The Jazz Spaztics ‘Move’ is an old favorite that fits in the mini-set I’m playing around with. I won this one in a contest they hosted.

Nice! I missed this on Record Store Day 2013.
Did Jeanette Landray ever sing on anything else?

I confess I do not know shit about this band other than this album which I didn’t know about until the 2006 re-issue.

It was a one off, originally released in 1983.
Robert Smith (Cure) and Steven Severin (Siouxsie & the Banshees) were taking a mental health break from their respective bands. JL sang on the records, because Robert’s record contract forbade him from singing on anything other than Cure records.

Oh, I knew that stuff. I just meant I never looked beyond 1983.

Go record free in April, save up and get a better cart than that Ortofon red. Even just swap it for the Blue. Night and day difference.

I had the Ortofon blue a while back, and while it was a nice cart, it just wasn't for me. As far as carts in that price range, I much preferred the AT vm540ml. I think the biggest improvement to my ears comes from the microline stylus vs the elliptical of the 2m Blue. But different ears, ymmv, etc.
I'll tell you though, while amazon and musicdirect and most dealers will have carts at the same standard price unless they're open box or something, it's worth getting on the guitarcenter mailing list because they send out periodic coupons for 15-20% off, and you can save some coin on a new cart. While they do carry Ortofon, I don't believe they carry their 2m line.
Here's the cart I recommend to guys in the sub 300 range:

I have a Grado Gold 3 that’s going in to replace the 2M. I’m just waiting on a headshell for it. I don’t really like the 2M. It’s quality, it just sounds pretty much exactly like a DJ cart and not so much like a hifi cart.

already got the red one installed, so you just pull the cart off and put the blue one in? do you need to do any other adjustments?

You can go up to the 2M black I believe which is a super MM cart. Just take the old one off and plug it in. I've just checked the tracking force for the red vs blue and they are the same. So yeah it should be a straight swap.
Going to the bronze or black would be a big jump, but a jump in cost also.
