The Sound of The 'Chicks'

Was tranfered on my Technics SL-D33 with a Technics 270c cartridge and stylus. The lp itself was a bit rough, but sounds very good for it's age. As with all the other Viking LP's, high end distortion is an issue. I have left this as is, as this should not hinder your listening enjoyment. Very light de-clicking has been done with ClickFix for Adobe Audition.

This is rather a decent album. Much better than Dinah Lee's debut album, which shall be here soon also (only a few tracks are on cd I believe).

This lp is all new, except for "The Hucklebuck", which sounds far better here than the needledrop that's appeared on cd's since Kiwi Classics Vol. 1 in 1996, It also has a slightly longer fade out here, and does not have the scraping noise on the intro, it also sounds more crisp, warm and less harsh.

This took me 2 hours to transfer and get into a listenable and enjoyable state. I hope you enjoy it. Please leave feedback and comments, as it's really appreciated.

Peter Posa - His Greatest Hits (1966 Viking)

Here's what is his probably first greatest hits LP, Sound quality is superb and like all here on this blog, it's my own rip.

This was transferred on my Technics SL-D33 Direct Drive Turntable with a 270c cartridge and stylus and was tracked at 3 grams to avoid high frequency distortion that is normally rampant on these Viking LP's. These were transfered at 24-bit 96hz. Each track was done separatly transfer wise, and before each track was transferred, the stylus was inspected and cleaned if needed, and the lp was cleaned with a cleaning brush before each track was transferred. These were manually declicked for all the big pops, and a light auto de-click to remove the smaller ones, any hint of rumble has been removed. They were then summed to mono, and exported to standard 44/16 Flac, tagged, with cover, and uploaded (cover and back included). NO USE OF ANY FORM OF NOISE REDUCTION HAS BEEN USED.
