I also learned the chorus of this song in elementary school, back in the early ‘60s. Fun memories. Thanks for sharing the recording.

Nice! DENON turntable 🎶👍🏼😊 and new subscriber 👽✌🏼

I have been thinking about this song more recently, as there are presently three or four chickens that walk around free near where I live. I find myself saying, "The chickery chicks are walking around again," whenever I see these chickens. They certainly don't make fun novelty songs like these anymore. I could have sworn that Perry Como once sang this song, though. I could be wrong.

I just got a pair of the 1010s. Spending time with both those and the 1030s, I'd adjust my description to simply "Fun, vintage tone". They are far from perfect and not the most revealing, not the best soundstage or imaging, BUT simply a fun, musical "personality". They are the type of speaker that let you off the "perfection" hook. Or the analytical mindset. They somewhat take me back to when I started buying my first speakers and how the simple features of nice highs, nice lows and a decent sense of scale first made an impression. They almost force you to just settle in and enjoy the songs filtered through a very specific and pleasant voicing. The 1030s definitely provide more mid range quality and ease, and potential for more output, but both meet this "fun, vintage tone" description. The perfection mindset can definitely take away from the simple pleasure of music playback. The Koss "bypass" that type of clinical experience.

Thank you

Thats a beauty of a player. Awesome 👍

Hello, I am having issue with this turntable, the sound that comes out of the speaker isnt very loud, but if I put the tuner(radio) it is loud. Anything you suggest me? Thank you

I just picked up a pair of 1030's for $350 (can) delivered. They may be my favorite speakers of a 50 year hi-fi hobby. Words that come to mind are Authoritative... Big Scale... Open... Effortless... Musical... Vivid... Detailed... They feel like more of a recording studio monitor with their scale and aliveness. Everything sounds big and real. I found my eyes darting from one speaker to the other and sounds popped up in recordings. They simply seem much more alive than others Ive had.

I grew up with the boys in the Hammer, hung out at star records, seen them play Saturday afternoons on top of loyd Jackson square, seen one of their last concerts before Frankie passed,,R.i.p, Frankie and lazy legs, Gord.

I remember this song taught to me at school😊thanks for this music

Witch toggles did you use ?

Hi Mark I just acquired one of these turntables not near as nice condition as yours. Mine is missing the counter weight (the small one on the right side at the bottom) any chance if you still have turntable you could send me a picture?

Interesting look at a turntable which really should be more well known and appreciated. It is a lot like my Technics SL 1000 (consists of a SP 10 Mk 2 motor unit paired with an EPA 100 arm mounted in an obsidian base).

My mom used to sing this.

Just got mine back after a bearing needed replacing also had an ortofon Blue cartridge…absolutely love listening and looking at the demon..

My grandma taught me this when I was a kid, she passed away from cancer in 2020 during the pandemic. Good memories.

Just bought one today. One hell of a score and I hope you still have it and I hope you keep it as they’re going up in price.

Thanks for the video explainer, it was helpful. I just found one of these in near mint condition in my late Uncle’s house. Only thing that’s amiss is that the cartridge seems to be missing the stylus tip, so I’ll need to buy a new cartridge. Other than that it has the dust cover, both the straight and S tone arms with both counterweights, and overall it looks great. Super excited to get it fully ready and try it out.

Great looking deck and I'm sure it also plays amazing. Has a great reputation. Not keen on companies not publishing tech details, but hey, they are mostly inflated anyway. The thing with direct drive TTs are that they cost a fortune to repair, as they are complex. I just stayed with belt drive. Ermm, just realised this was 10 yrs ago!!

Me de papai kkkkk

A beauty, have J33, programmable

Powinieneś zrobić żonie za to minetę stulecia :-))).

I'm a college student, but I am quite familiar with this song, because my grandma always sang it when I was younger. I'm only now realizing fully realizing that it was an actual song and not just something that she came up with (she's been raising chickens ever since before I was born, so I figured she was just singing about her chickens)

Great

Mark with all of that gear in-between your speakers your soundstage and center imaging is completely compromised.

Any testable variation in wow and flutter type stuff between horizontal and upright?

Best thrift store find i got was yamaha r1000 stereo receiver vintage brand new still sealed in box and was $7.99 and B&W powered sub in excellent condition.

I have since bought the DP 57, which is the Japanese version of the 62. It does have the crazy technically control arm, but happily mine is in working order. I do prefer the green buttons on mine

Thanks for this vid! Have a set of each model myself, love them! The cabs are quite unique and they do sound great! Also have the modified toggles on the 1030 just like yours but I'm sure the x-overs need recap/repair as only the high settings work. Enjoy!

How about showing how you puttge belt on?

Question what cartridge can I get now in 2022 is there any good brand ? Thank you

i see this is a few years old, not to bad, you missed alot, got a few things out of sequence but pretty good. lots has happened since.

707, its time to make your 100th video……..

My 3 year old cousin looked at me funny (or so I've been told because I"m blind) when I sang this to him last summer. We were eating chicken and i started singing the chickery chick part and he says what are you doing?

I had bought the cm 1020 in 1978 at London Audio and they sold a ton of these ...they looked great and sounded great and I did like them better than the 1030s I had them hooked up to my Yamaha Intergrated amp with a Denon turntable with a Ortofon MC 20 ...and it was The best I had heard with my collection of albums and cassettes and my reel to reel tapes I was in Audiophile Heaven ! lol It was very enjoyable experience listening to music I wouldnt trade that experience for anything ! I wish i could send you a picture of my set up back then taken with a 110 camera but you tube wont let you do that Take care it was good to see my old friends again!

I remember my Dad had a pair of Koss headphones

Hi Beninski707 When the stars align, there is always a happy man. I watched a few days ago your video presentation about the Denon DP-60L, and two days ago I just bought one, in a state of near perfection. It comes with all the original accessories and some bonuses. This being said and I ask here to all Denon DP-60L owners which are the models of cartridges that you would advise both for the straight and the S shape tonearm, and both in MM and MC model. I have a phono preamp which accepts both models. Is It also useful to change the RCA cable by a model from Mogami with low cap ?

Thank-you for a great discussion on Teenage Head. I had the Frantic City album and played it at many of my great house parties…in Toronto. This post is October 8 2022. I liked the song Disgusteen, Wild One, and the whole Album.

Cabinet had the distinction of being designed by a Grandfather clock maker which kinda shows.

What's the weight on the heavier counter weight for S tone arm ? 112g? I just got this turntable without S arm. I purchased a S arm, but now I need to find correct counter weight and headshell.

Mind if i ask what the size of the belt?

Times when each brand had a design philosophy, made his own research

My Daddy use to sing this to me!

I just traded for this table today and loving it so far!

the turntable turns crooked and crooked, how can I repair this aluminum table? same as in video

Oh Hell!

I can remember going to a party in Winnipeg in the early 80's. I must admit I had not heard of this band. '' Frantic City was put on'' I was completely blown away!! I became a huge fan of the band after this.I went out and bought Frantic City and the first album. I have gone out and bought the remaining albums and cd's over the years. They were awesome Live as I tried to see them every time they passed through. I can remember having beers with Frankie, at a Club here something I will never forget! A very informative and well presented video here. I do agree with many of your views on them and their records. The book they have out and the new documentary are awesome also. I have met the others in the band and they are all a class act! I hope they pass though Winnipeg in 2022.

Ok beninski707...After watching this video and doing some research, I decided to start looking for a DP-60l in as best condition I can find. I see that you made this video 8+ years ago. How is your DP-60l functioning these days? Would you still highly recommend it? Thanks for the great video!

tyvm!

Teenage Head wiped the floor with the Ramones!
