Hi everybody, today I just finished to upgrade my recording toys, new Ortofon Red cartridge, new Tascam US-144 USB sound recording DAC, new Monster cables too. The result is good I think, and I would like to get your advice!

As a sample, here is a vinyl ripped track from a superb project made in France, called Motown flies to Jamaica. The concept : reggae covers of Motown finest sounds. The result is stunning. I heard that this is 100% bootleg, made with acapella tapes then overdubbed.

My guess : how these guys managed to get so many acapella tapes? I suspect Motown to be behind this project, and create the buzz... Anyway, I love both concepts...
