    Now I see. Malcolm was the man. So glad they filmed all this. Awesome you got their signatures and were able to chat with Angus. That one part on the ramp it looks like he's 100 stories above the crowd. :) I also love Chris Slade's drumming. His center placed hi-hat rocks. 

    Yes, Chris Slade didn't give the boys any breathing room at that time of 'The Razors Edge'. I admire Chris a lot, but for me the historical drummer of AC/DC is Phil Rudd.

    However, I would not make it a habit of changing the turntable speed while the record is playing and always make sure the disc is firmly on the turntable platter.

    That's for sure, it was a couple of beginner's mistakes. It was my first time dealing with a turntable. That's why I wanted to know if those mistakes were big enough to ruin the vinyl a little bit (although later I tested them again and there was no problem... but who knows... MOST OF YOU). :lol:

    Did you mean Angus? They hardly show Malcolm in this one. Great song though. I'd loved to have been there. Did they sign that for you? I have an autographed copy of Ginger Baker's book 'Hellraiser.' :)

    No, I mean Malcolm, from minute 4:09. He's in a trance (and so am I).

    Yes, Angus signed me several times 'Black Ice' and the 2008-2009 tour book. Malcolm and Phil signed the album for me. I also talked a little bit with Angus. This was at the Hyatt hotel when they came to Argentina in 2009.

    I went to River Plate Stadium all three nights, but I didn't appear on the DVD. Some friends from Buenos Aires did show up, an ex girlfriend and an ex brother in law.

    Angus gets the spotlight, but watch Malcolm the rhythm monster. Fuck!

     

    I love what Malcolm does in every song, but what Malcolm does here is one of my favorite performances of his:
     


    Luckily I have 'Black Ice' signed by Malcolm, Angus and Phil.

    DO NOT PLAY YOUR GOOD VINYL ON CROSLEY TURNTABLES! I cannot stress this enough. If you want to play your old beat up vinyl, fine. But don't go to the expense of buying new Zeppelin vinyl if all you have is a Crosley to play them on.

    Since you are talking about these issues I'd like to have some peace of mind with the most precious thing I have (materially), which are my twelve super deluxe boxes.

    I'm really a newbie in everything that has to do with vinyl, I don't currently have any turntable. So in 2019 to check that all the vinyl in the twelve boxes were okay I went to a friend's recording studio and tested them all on a "Pioneer Plx-500 Dj" turntable but the pick was "Ortofon 2m Red".

    All the vinyls were perfect, except for a few songs where apparently some dust was gathered and it "skidded", but then we passed a brush to the vinyl and it worked perfectly.

    I only have three doubts regarding the state of my vinyl:

    1) The first vinyl of 'Led Zeppelin II', I forgot to put it on 33 and I put it on 45, I immediately changed it to the right speed and there was no problem. Did that affect or will affect the vinyl?

    2) The first vinyl of 'Houses Of The Holy', was not attached properly to the turntable, so it was "floating" for a few seconds, but immediately we put it back correctly and it worked perfectly. Same question: Did or will it affect the vinyl?

    3) Was the turntable "Pioner Plx-500 Dj" with the "Ortofon 2m Red" pick correct for testing the vinyl? I mean, it doesn't damage the vinyl like those Crosleys, right?

    Thanks!
