What is it about the physical properties of a lacquer that make them so amazing to listen to?

Alan B. Cook commented on Chris Sommovigo's blog post 'Listen to Bliss'

I remember Michael Fremer mentioning in a review a couple of years that he had a lacquer. For whatever reason I think it was of a The Who album.

Mmm... walls o' vinyl and obscure pressings of Blue Note jazz. I hope the guy climbs those shelves to get to the top instead of using a ladder. Not fair!

At 7:34pm on March 2, 2009, Rick Shoup said…: I did stop into her store yesterday (for the 1st time), but unfortunately she wasn't in. No worries though, I will definitely be going back! Nice site you got here btw Chris. Glad I happened to stumble across it.

At 11:44pm on February 2, 2009, Paul Luscusk said…: It would be even better with the King records Japanesse Half Speed English verision Lp's. I have a few of them. The Stone never sounded better.

At 12:32am on January 31, 2009, The Record Lounge said…: I do have Paypal, so that will make it easy.
I have been a fan of Fleet Foxes lp so thought I would post a small blog about it to get the hang of it.
So this will be fun and look forward to it. I am glad Eric told me about this site, this has been a lot of fun getting to know people who dig vinyl as much as me.

At 11:42pm on January 30, 2009, The Record Lounge said…: I will start putting some things together tomorrow and will send a list to you tomorrow night and will go from there.
Just let me know how you would like me to list things as well.

At 11:18pm on January 30, 2009, The Record Lounge said…: That would be cool, I have a ton of great vinyl in my $1 bins that have nothing wrong with them besides I have maybe 4-5 copies of them.
I can also put some newer stuff that has been sitting for too long and I need to turn over to make room for new stuff. Thanks for the opportunity to do this.

At 9:57pm on January 30, 2009, The Record Lounge said…: yes we do a majority of the vinyl is used but its getting to be more and more new stuff as well

At 11:55pm on October 30, 2008, Hunter Bush said…: oh, my mistake.

At 11:37pm on October 30, 2008, Hunter Bush said…: hey Chris, it says Alex Kovaleski wrote my Evangelicals review, and Andy Smith wrote your R.E.M. piece. I'm sure its just some technical flub.
