Even my old worn Bella Donna sounds really good on vinyl. In fact, the cd I made from digitizing my Bella Donna record sounds better than the cd I bought. How can that be?
Anyway, congrats on your record player - it's cool that you found one with retro look. I never got rid of the last turntable I bought, in the mid-eighties, although it has been through many cartridges and needles. It isn't a cool-looking machine at all, but works fine.
I only recently replaced my vinyl of Tusk with the Cd.
I haven't listened to Mirage in a very long time, and it is even possible that the record isn't in my box of records stored at mom's - I know it isn't with my records here-which means I may have sold it. I think I spent a lot of time skipping to the Stevie songs on Mirage, and this was the first FM record where her songs were really my only standout favorites. Hmm, well, I also liked "Eyes of the World". I worked as a cashier at a clothing store the year this record came out, and they stationed a tv right next to the checkout line, with a loop of about 5 videos, and one was "Hold Me" so for that reason, the song is deeply imprinted in my brain. I know it well, but I am not sure that means I like it lots. It is catchy. Maybe Chris was saving up for her own solo effort. I ended up liking more of her songs on that record.
