Title: Should I Purchase? Post by: The Heartical Don on October 09, 2008, 05:40:00 AM Dear friends and ephemeral acquaintances and Carl LaFong too -
I do possess the TLOS CD (European pressing) in the DeLuxe edition (CD + DVD). Given all the recent hubbub and upheaval about its sound quality, I did some diligent searching. And now I can, with pressing one button, acquire the vinyl double LP set, still sealed, for the sum of € 15,01. Should I give in to temptation? Or spend the money on cigars? (Please, do not refer back to that very long thread. A simple one-liner will do, thank you in advance). THD (oops... now I see that my initials also stand for: Total Harmonic Distortion. I don't know whether I should be happy with that...) Title: Re: Should I Purchase? Post by: smile-holland on October 09, 2008, 06:23:48 AM vinyl DOUBLE set?!?! :o in that case definitely YES
but that one doesn't exist, does it? Assuming you mean the single vinyl version with fold out cover my answer would be YES as well... Title: Re: Should I Purchase? Post by: brother john on October 09, 2008, 06:37:30 AM What does 'Heartical' mean?
Title: Re: Should I Purchase? Post by: The Heartical Don on October 09, 2008, 07:29:12 AM What does 'Heartical' mean? Thanks to the both of you. Of course I meant the LP (1). Sorry 'bout that mishap. The Heartical Don is a name I found in 'The Rough Guide To Reggae' (3rd edition and mandatory for every reggae lover). It has a couple of pages explaining typical Kingstonian 'lingo'. A heartical don is a, let's say, 'important' person in a city district, who has some 'influence', and is 'loved' by all inhabitants of that district for that. (I hyphenated the key words that, it seems to me, have a bit of a 'double meaning' and need not necessarily be unequivocally positive). Ah well. Title: Re: Should I Purchase?
