Hi folks. I have just acquired a brand new Grado Prestige Black 3 magnetic Cartridge. Before I fit it on my old Project Debut III with aluminium arm and AC Syncronous motor, I would like to know from our vinyl enthusiasts ( that’s why posting here) whether it is suitable for the Aluminium arm and will it pick up hum. Fitting a cart on a Project TT is a delicate process and I have broken a clip earlier. So would like your views. If not suitable, will have to let it go.Thanks.

As usual you have made me dig out my copy(Indian Pressing) and give the”Bread” a spin. Don’t even recall how much I paid! Maybe 50 or 60₹. Thanks Sir. And this time I see the EN.

Back home from the sounds of birds twittering and cicadas chirring and had to give it my first spin of the year. Cheers all and much vinyl happies in 2026!



America’s Greatest Hits, Warner, 1975, US

The remastered Older. 2022 European reissue, Sony.

That George Michael dedicated to the great Antonio Carlos Jobim - the creator and my favourite composer of bossa nova, makes this album extra special.

One of my favourite bands ever. Hard to imagine how they felt they never were able to nail their sound in studio - gigs apparently felt just right to them but they were never able to replicate it. Sad no quality live recordings exist.

Retrospective - The Best of Buffalo Springfield. 1969, Warner. 1972, Warner-Pioneer Japanese reissue

European first pressing

The album that sometimes gets lost amidst the big uns. But lovely nonetheless. Mirage, 1982, Japanese pressing

One of my favourite records of all time! So Far. 1974, Japanese first press
