Bobby Hutcherson- Stick-Up!- ****
The Beach Boys- Pet Sounds (Kevin Gray Stereo Cut)- ****
(Stereo or mono? Mono, because that is what was originally intended, right? Wrong. Once you hear the Analogue Productions release of the Kevin Gray stereo cut, you will never want to hear the mono again. One of the greatest sounding slabs of vinyl I have ever heard.)
Kraftwerk- 2- ****
Grateful Dead- Live/Dead (Sides One & Two)- ***
Dave Edmunds- Swan Songs: The Singles, 1976-1981-****
Errol Dunkley- Militant Man- ****
(First time--really nice rock steady record with a bit of a dub twist to it. A keeper.)
Buster's All-Stars- Blue Beat 45s- ***1/2
Derrick & Patsy- Blue Beat 45s- ***1/2
The Rolling Stones- Garden State '78- ****
(Legendary! Relentless!)

Re: Kevin Gray’s Pet Sounds, is that the 33 1/3 or 2x45rpm vinyl, sir? Loved The Kicker, so very much looking forward to carrying on with Bobby today. Thanks for sharing, Sal. :)
I have the 33 1/3 version. Getting up to turn the record over is hard enough, I can't do it three times!
Couldn't agree more about Pet Sounds. Kevin Gray needs to be inducted into the RRHOF. I have the 45 RPM version, I need all the exercise I can get.
