- So I bought a Dual DTJ 301.1 record player. Happy birthday to me.
This Marillion LP has been waiting fifteen years to be played again.. One of my favourite albums ever.
Audio recorded straight from the line out connectors of the Dual.
While we definitely are not talking about high end Hi-Fi here, I think this Dual is really worth the 119 Eur I paid for it.
Marillion' s music is like a torch that guides me through the darkness of life.
👍👍👍it does man!
Been listening to them since the days of Misplaced Childhood! Amazing band. This will always be my favorite album of theirs. It’s perfect!! From Fish’s voice, those lyrics, and the instruments!!! A stage full of Virtuoso’s!!!! A true Masterpiece!! Timeless!!!
Stellar band all the way through. Fish's voice is epic. Such an intelligent and talented group of true musicians. This band was more than just a band but a total vibe. Wonderful body of work through and through.
One of the greatest records ever recorded
Two of the greatest records ever recorded, awesome! Brings back memories.
My two favorite Marillion songs. Nice choice, my friend.
This is music... Absolutely love it... Great job thanks for posting.
This sounds just like what I would stay up all night listening to on headphones down in the rec room so I wouldn't disturb my folks. FM radio back then would play full sides of LPs with no commercial breaks too in the wee hours.
Good old times.
Timeless, intimate, beautiful and powerful…
What a great, atmospheric song. Love playing this, lights down with a glass of red!!
Slàinte Mhath is in my top 3 favorite Marillion songs! Never got to see the original band with Fish, but I have everything they recorded, along with Marillion with Steve Hogarth. Such a great band.
Lucky enough see Marillion with Fish here in Dublin along time ago about 1983 with Fish. Always loved the band and saw them many times in England wirh Steve such amazing albums and a band ahead of their time or equal with Genesis3
love this album too !
and i just bought "Brave" plus this record player. Yes. I love both Marillions... with Fish and with Hogarth :)
Seasons End & Afraid Of Sunlight are also excellent albums from the Hograth era imo.
Que de souvenirs ! L'un des meilleurs groupes de progressif si ce n'est le meilleur. Toute une époque, la meilleure ! 🇲🇫🎧🎸✌️
Quality album by Marillion.. Fish on his game here....
Are you taking the FKN PISS … what a BEAUTIFUL PIECE IF CLASSIC FISH ERA MARILLION … QUALITY STEEET ALL DAY LONG .. I’m 51 years young .. it’s TIME TO BURN A LITTLE BRIGHTER. NOW …we burn a little brighter brighter now .. love MARILLION AND LOVE THE FISH ERA assassin 👍🤔👌
Thank you so much! This still gives me mega goose bumps! A timeless classic!!
Love that album
Pure class
Great sound 👍
Great album Straws, really atmospheric with brilliant lyrics by Fish and superb playing by the band. My big brother bought it on vinyl when it was released. I remember the cd edition had one extra track, Going Under.
.think it had a couple of other songs as well mate , tux on " being one if i remember right .
I've now got the 2 cd remaster edition from the late 90's.
@@jamiecovfefe6323 I see EMI has released all the Fish era albums in box sets (with loads of extras). Managed to get the Script one 2nd hand at a decent price. Beautifully packaged in the style of a hard back book.
I only had this on cassette. thankyou so much. the vinyl nuance is a joy. as for the frame rate and the tacho-whatever. the content is king. Sounds about right to me. I'll be listening to this til I pas out.
Loving this...I own the vinyl album (and also most Fish era albums on vinyl, post-Fish on CD) but currently no deck ... one day soon I must rectify that...thanks for the video...
"Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter now...."
BTW - this DMM pressing is probably the best vinyl version of the album, perhaps the Japanese pressing beats it but only just.
I love this song. When I first heard it, back nineteen **cough** eighty **cough** **mumble**, I went and bought Jack Kerouac's "On the road". IMHO: Total bollocks. Gave the book away. Still love the song, though, after all these years.
Oh, and I've had a few pints or more in the Baker's Arm, where the album cover art is set :)
Wow I'm back in the 1980s see them with fish a few times thanks for this
Their greatest Album. Sublime.
FISH IS MARILLION
You did great on this awesome video.
Burn a little brighter now....
Amazing sound
PINK ANDERSON + FLOYD COUNCIL = PINK FLOYD and PINK FLOYD + GENESIS + TOILKIEN = MARILLION and so on and so on and so on ....love it
❤
Brilliant!!!
Love it
Bought this on Cassette when it first came out. Got the album like two years later. The CD about twenty years ago! Still have all three! Can’t get rid of them! Just seems wrong!!
Sounds sooo much better on CD..
Great band,great album.But,just not the same for me when Fish left.
Най най най най....
Sure fool them all made it past 30. Just a chapter. Life better not so complicated. Stay safe people
torch was my brother...
I see in your video that unfortunately you have the phono-cartridge not properly leveled with the surface of the vinyl. You should try to twist the heafshell. There is some clearance to move the headshell left and right just before locking the screw. The sound will improve! To prevent wear of your vinyl records you can easely set te stylus force at 2.0 grams. I'm very happy with my DTJ 301.
Yeah, the stylus was a bit slanted back then, this video was shot pretty much right after i unboxed the damn thing :) I did fix things after this first high though.
This record player was a reboot for my vinyl collecting hobby, after that I have had many vintage 80s and 70s turntables (currently a Dual CS 505-4 in the living room and a late 70's Philips here in my study) and pretty much quadrupled my vinyl collection of 70s and 70s rock and pop music.
Great stuff! Do you have a separate phono amp?
C'mon people....subscribe to this guy. greatvvideos!!
X1 word .......MARILLION......enough said ...
👍🏻
i searched around for this turntable for that price, but 159,- seems to be the lowest price here in holland.
Have you checked the amazon.de? That's where I bought mine.
Are you still using this record player? Is it a good record player? there are not enough reviews on the internet
Well obviously it is not such a workhorse like a Technics would be, but I'd say it was definitely worth the price.
Unfortunately I don't have mine any more, I sold it while upgrading my music system.
thank you for the reply. I first ordered audio technica at lp60. but there were problem on the delivery. I am looking for a record player that's not more than 200 euros. and this one is 190 euros. well, I guess this is better than lp60
Here is Torch Song performed live in Gothenburg and recorded by me: czcams.com/video/W85vlGMfo1o/video.html
PROPPER
fix rpm please
You mean the strobo stripes? They are just as they should be, the camera's FPS ratio just does not match with them :)
If you maintain this lifestyle... You won't reach 30.
