Need to work on my setup, but just needed to check it was functioning. Thought Zepplin was a good first lp.
Got a 2nd hand turntable, can finally listen to my vinyl after 15 years

Congrats, it is a great hobby. Condolences to your disposable income though, because records have never been more expensive.

New records, yes. Very expensive.
But OP, there are still bargains to be found in the Discogs app for used records.

Yeah, I first got into vinyl i was in my teens, and spent a lot of my twenties picking up second hand classics in old record stores and thrift shops. But used vinyl and youthful parties means that lots of the records aren't in great condition... Now that I'm used to music that doesn't skip and jump, I'm going to be very tempted to buy pristine records that I can be more respectful of.

There is a really nice charm to pearl hunting the bargain bins and finding treasures or even better: discover treasures you never knew existed. Brand new records often disappoint for me when they are represses of old albums, you have to research well which represses are well done and which aren't before spending hard earned money on them.

Black Mountain Side is fucking amazing, best track on the album for me

Hey, I’d love to know what model Denon that is. If you feel like it, please post about your turntable (specs, where/how you got it, the rest of your setup) here: !turntables@lemmy.world

It's a Denon DP-297. I've posted something to that community (thanks for pointing me in their direction!)
