Just got a C mail....

"I write all the time on Fet Life".

I wrote back: "I write all the time on yellow, college ruled 12" x 18".

(What can you do?).

By this time...they knew. At this point, the band was simply giving to Mercury...and by virtue...every one of us: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Jtpf8N5IDE&index=11&list=PLeoBVKHKNsGriWnBb7u2FrwRC-izVytZg

He was.

Not even being the biggest fan of Queen, here, they kept the ball rolling in interesting pop music anyway.

Freddie: He just went balls out all the time and couldn't stop until some metaphorical telephone poll of life stepped in front of his speeding car.

You forgot their (or maybe Freddie's) "statement of purpose" song:

Killer Queen

Or like this:

Stone Cold Crazy

I heard "Killer Queen" late one night on New York's WNEW-FM the first week it was released and bought "Sheer Heart Attack" the next day. The sales clerk I checked out with said, "Never heard of these guys. Are they any good?" Guessing he figured that out pretty soon.
KQ was always my favorite track by that group. And yes, I still have the LP, and it still plays very well. One of my hobbies of late has been using a turntable with a USB output and Audacity to convert my LP collection to MP3s, and that particular album converted very well. I've found that if an LP was well-engineered in the studio it can sound very good in digital format. Comparing a converted analog LP with a digital CD version of the same song, you mostly notice that the LP version will have less bass. In a lot of cases though that will make it sound more like a live performance.

I prefer the discoey stuff from the '80s when they started using synths. That said, if I had to pick just one Queen song, it'd definitely be The Show Must Go On, which was blatantly doing the early stuff again (just like the rest of Innuendo was...)

Which would mean that the A/D or D/A conversion process added something to the original. That was (is) an intentional and undefeatable digital processing feature of almost all D/A converters.

But still, the cartridge and the RIAA phono stage have a lot to say about the quality of vinyl reproduction.

Understandably, most people don't want to mess with it.

It costs money to do analog right, so one can see where CD or a lossless format like ALAC or newer formats have the advantage for most.

CD sales have plummeted, vinyl sales are on the rise, but streaming/downloading is the majority of distribution today, and as will be in the foreseeable future.

But setting the tonearm down on the disk is what I grew up with, so I'm a Luddite. I'll look for the best quality downloads at good price when I get around to it. But my record collection will still be here and always played.

One can't make fine sonic/audio quality distinctions or assessments from MP3 youtube, but this example of conversion turned out okay, especially the bass and vocals:

Take A Walk On The Wild Side
