Man. Those opening notes! I got chill bumps on my arms, and tears in my eyes. This is how music is supposed to move you.
TH-cam gives you control over your streaming quality, but the options are limited to High (256Kbps), Normal (128Kbps), and Low (4Kbps).
The 256kbps audio codec works great.
This 256 kbps codec gives a much smoother audio quality experience over FLAC and Lossless codec’s. That is why this upload sounds very good.
I saw Grover Washington play live about an hour’s drive from Buffalo, NY. So awesome to listen to hear him play live. That was in 1988. And yes, he played this same song.
That was his hometown!
One of my favorite songs OAT!! Satisfied every time I hear this wonderful classic!!
Yes, the good old days...😍😍
Awesome TT too!!🤩🤩
Great share!!!! The movie Notting Hill has a sound track that is most certainly worth buying for anyone who enjoys this song. It has Withers, Costello, Green, and a handful of others. My wife and I listen to that soundtrack from end to end.
One of my favorite singers and my favorite sax player made an incredible duo! Too bad they didn't do more together. Maybe they are in heaven!
Oh my GOD....... JUST PURE AND AMAZING SOUND, NEVER HEARD THIS VERSION LIKE THIS ONE!!! AMAZING THANKS FOR SHARING
Wow! Sounds perfect - always loved this cut by Bill W. MOFI has a lovely rich bass sound. Fantastic equipment you have there too. Thank you for sharing 👍
It is my pleasure. Thanks! ;)
Great choice! Wow, the percussion just sounds so crisp. And that bass thumps! Washington's lovely sax just sings.... Fantastic song!
So cool. Nothing beats the analog sound of vinyl
Listening online means it's been digitised, so you're not really hearing the vinyl
;-)
@@MGTS24 Let alone questions about the microphone used.
Yeah. I was being sarcastic!
Sounds great...even on an iPad! 😂
I really like this full view at the turntable. Never quite understood the extreme close up view of the cartridge while playing. So for me it's a big step up. The sound has always been good
Hello. Velvety sound, how beautiful.
I’ve never really heard this song until now. Wow. Thank you!
Really?!! A CLASSIC! (But then again I grew up as a teenager in the 70’s) 😂
@@mikek.4211
Haha! No, of course I’ve heard it. I just meant I’ve never heard it sound so good with such detail. lol
It is a delight of images and sound! 🎶🎧
Yeah all of that hiss
That is insanely amazing quality, I love all the instrumentation. The stereo channel separation in the track also sounds so good and dynamic. Thanks for this track, an absolute pleasure to listen to!
Thank you! It is my pleasure ☺
@@HiFisquarepants Great toon. Does YT give you copyright strike? Just curious.
Wow! Great combo of video and audio) this song is beautiful in itself, but this video makes it nicer.
Wonderful song in the best quality i have ever heard it in, thank ye kindly for your efforts good sir!
I'd love to hear the long album version on this system.
Very kind of you! :)
Im between that turntable or the Marantz tt15s1 . What is your take ?
@@jerryandlisa27 haven't had/heard that TT but it seems to be a better deck...
Really well done video. Amazing sound, great production values and an awesome recording of a brilliant song! Thank you!
Thank you for this, and so many of your other videos. Your care and attention to detail inspires me to derive as much pleasure as I can from this wonderful hobby. You have also helped me re-think the value of higher grade pressings. Since watching your videos this past late spring I have upgraded my system with a new amp and turntable, but mostly I have focused on building my collection of quality pressings. I am enjoying music more than ever. Cheers!
🤩🤩
You have mastered the imagery--romancing the spinning black disk. I am hypnotized by your artistry...
That is VERY kind of you. Thank you! 🙌
I'm so glad you shared this video with the world. An amazing song from an amazing Artist on an Amazing Vinyl Pressing...
listening hi-end vinyl via youtube bitrate...
What does “listeting” mean????
@@justincayes5851 mistyped "listening"
What's your point ?
still sounds better than most youtube copies
Bitrate isnt everything stop being a smartass
It's always a pleasure to be notified of a new video of yours on TH-cam. As always, it sounds great!
Thanks for following up those notifications 😉 I truly appreciate that.
BTW, aquest nom em sona d'alguna cosa... 🤪
Right? Me too. I hit that noitification bell, baby!
I love this video! Why? Well, for a few reasons. 1st, I would like to share something with you: during this past covid summer, I decided to upgrade my TT from a starter Onkyo (nice, but a starter) to a Pro-ject X2 (intermediate, but a serious upgrade). The colour scheme is the same as this TT. I love it! Wood with the fat acrylic platter. I bought an Ortofon Blue stylus to replace the Silver since it was an easy switch during the lockdown. This was based on feedback you gave me on another video. I then bought the Pro-ject clamp. My Onkyo amp then died on me so I replaced it with a Rega Brio. Together, they are wonderful! Then I bought a bunch of Mo-Fi records and have been enjoying my music listening so much. I feel like I have entered into a different realm of HiFi (sort of entry mid-fi) that is different than what I was used to. I have to say that your videos inspired me to enjoy this lovely hobby on a different level. Thank you for taking the time to post these videos. I know that so many of your viewers enjoy them immensely, as I do. Cheers brother!
2 legends gone to that big ol' rest home in the sky! It's also Grover Washington (Ft. Bill Withers), not the other way round
This is on Withers’ Greatest Hits
But he was a featured singer on one of Grover's albums.
@@georgesingleton3425 That is what I said in my original comment.
A smooth jazz classic! The Pro-ject looks and sounds great - and the "cut glass" effect on the clamp is a nice touch of bling. This is a very clean-looking setup too! I like the video story-board at the end! I wish I was that organised ;o)
Thank you Bob, I really appreciate your kind words and the fact that you watch my videos so closely ☺ glad you like it!
I love your videos. I've discovered lots of music I may not have by watching these videos and then got them on vinyl myself. I only have a simple set up but hopefully I'll upgrade as time goes on. Appreciate the story board at the end. Really shows how much work you put into these. Well done, it's fantastic.
Comments like yours keep me motivated to keep going, which is somehow hard after so many years. Big thanks! :)
damn nice sound and a setup that I'm jealous of man, thanks for sharing and thumbs up
WOWEEE ! That was soooo satisfying in so many ways. THANK YOU !!
Used to have exactly this phono stage and the battery power supply. Battery is very quiet but the dynamics are gone with the wind. The set up was based on a Clearaudio Tallisman V2 mc cartridge, Michell Gyro SE turtable, Reed 2A tonearm. The sound was very clear, the system was very quiet but the final result was something with no soul. Everything was "right" but with no guts. Turn on a same price tube phono stage and the difference is day and night.
YES!!!!! You are so lovely....I just miss him so much.
just amazing video! wow i am in shock. all the details, the clips that turn like the bit of the song or like the mirror ball on disco club. sound amazing. no sibilance no nothing. thank you for your amazing videos. i just cant wait for the next one.
Big thanks! I greatly appreciate your kind words :)
I think this might be the best sounding recording I have ever heard on TH-cam! It's even a bit better than the Dire Straits recordings on here, and some of those are pretty spectacular.
When I first started to listen to this track I immediately thought - oh, not this song again, I'm so tired of this one. Then when I heard the sound quality I was immediately drawn into it, I was hearing things I had never noticed before. Then when the cowbells(?) started in the left channel at 2:40 I literally gasped! HiFisquarepants, THANK-YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS SONG AND YOUR AMAZING EQUIPMENT WITH US!
The project looks amazing and sounds lovely too
The Brasserie restaurant at Hilton on Park Lane (London) used to play this song in rotation in 1996 … 😊
man - this sounds f'ing amazing, thanks!
I know and its even being compressed by TH-cam! Still sounds amazing
I look for vinyl music on TH-cam. This sounds AWESOME! Great video work too! Great sound! Thank you. 60FPS, I suppose that worked made shots of the turntable more natural.
60fps sure, but heavily compressed audio.
i agree with all your notices, but i insist liking digital fulness!!!
Exceptional setup you have there! Sounding so very good.
awesome! thanks for sharing and bringing us into your words. marvellous!
Sound is great, thanks for sharing. Nice piece of kit.
Awesome video mate !! Loved the story board at the end 👏🏻
Thanks for watching the video so closely ;)
Superb !!!!!
It sounds as new as the first day I heard it back in 1980 or 82. The set up was McIntosh, Lynn turntable (with Ortofon), and Thiel CS-5 speakers. The presence, and depth were so live like, I remember I kept asking myself "why do I keep smiling". The soundstage my God, I had to keep opening my eyes to see if someone sneaked in the room and started playing a cowbell or bongos. This takes me back to Myer Emco 1212 conn. ave. .😊
Very nice 👏👏👏👏👌👌👌😊😊😊👍👍👍
👍best turntable and best of Bill Withers i like so much
OK !!!!!!!!!!!
....
Just one of the best and cultured tracks ever on probably THEE most sophisticated and cultured; ornate hi-fi systems ever !!!!!!!!!!
....
Wow the engineering detail and and quality is fascinating and i love the glass of water at the end !!!
....
....
How can i ask this question to a hi-fi "puritan" ?????
....
If you went to an "institution for the criminally insane" and borrowed a
"Single Ended Triode Valve Amp" and plugged it in ???
...
Would the sound reproduction be just as "mad" ???
...
...
"Be Away" these "blingy" new Rolls Royces and even Bentley 4x4's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...
As your hi-fi is a lovely vocation !!!
Wow, truly the best way to experience an already legendary track!
w an audio friend we compared cd and vinyl, no comparison, the vinyl filled the apartment w rich lush sound & no way to easily identify where the speakers were... that was 20 yrs ago.
I have a very decent vinyl and digital front end but I can easily identify where my speakers are, I can see them, they’re right in front of my listening position where they’ve been ever since I put them there... I know what you’re saying though, the sound completely escapes the bounds of the cabinets... I’m lucky in that I have that effect whether listening to vinyl, CD or streaming.
THE BEST VIDEO AFTER HEARS FOR VINILL!!!!THE BEST SOUND EVER AND THE BEST PRODUCING VIDEO !!!!!!
geia sou patrida!!!
@@yannisgk ΧΑ ΧΑ ΓΕΙΑ ΚΑΙ ΣΕ ΣΕΝΑ!!!!!!!!
Simply sweet.
Grabe!! Angganda talaga ng mga music na ginawa noon, thanks for uploading.
Salamat 🙂
Ortofon - what a beauty!
Nice video. I didnt expect you come up with the story board!
I found pro ject gear riddled with rumble from turntables, and hum from their electrical products. Gone rotel and technics.
Sounds amazing through my phone's tiny speaker..
Stunning video bravo
Great video, sounds terrific. I don't have that album but i do have the Grover lp that the song came from. Bill Withers was a terrific singer and i need more of his records.
i had eargasms on this! i also liked the scribbled storyboard...cute
Apologies...my last post was beyond stupid. Great video with excellent information 🙏🙏
🤯🤯🤯 cuanto hacia no escuchaba este tema y esta calidad 💎🎵🎶🎧🎧🎧🎷🎷🎷👍👍🎸🎼👏👏👏👏 .
Beautiful vinyl player and music!👍
Great detailed sound!!
Incredible! Wow it sounds great! My phone also has DTS Audio Processing, so hearing this on speaker is amazing
That's one good looking turntable! 😮
Outstanding!....
Stunningly beautiful song and video as well. Wow. Listening to Qobuz now. But this was amazing.
Qué delicia de vídeo, de calidad, de sonido. Y, sobre todo, qué delicia de canción, que me lleva a mi adolescencia, cuando sonaba en Radio 80 Serie Oro.
Muchas gracias por compartir esta joya y por el esfuerzo de realizar un vídeo tan cuidado.
Por cierto... La portada del disco Winelight de Grover Washington jr, colocada tan sutilmente, ¿es el anticipo de que tendremos una segunda parte con la versión larga?
@@jotauvejv Se me acaban las palabras para agradecer la gran acogida que tienen mis vídeos. Muchas gracias, de verdad. Y gracias también por visualizar el vídeo con cariño y ver todos los detalles que voy dejando a lo largo del mismo :) De momento la versión larga no la voy a subir, pero no descarto hacerlo el en futuro ;) Que pases un buen finde :)
@@HiFisquarepants De nuevo, gracias a ti por regalarnos estos vídeos. Igualmente, que disfrutes de un buen fin de semana.
This sounds incredible 💗
Would love to see more of your gear if possible. I love to see that stuff even though I have no need for it.
Wow! I know, it's via TH-cam's downsampling, but WOW, this recording sounds awesome!
...and also, this clip is so tasteful!
Que lujo de vídeo. Me encanta ver la creatividad y como al final nos regalas un pequeño detalle para que sepamos cómo pones tus ideas en papel. No es nada fácil pero vale la pena. Gracias.
Muchas gracias por apreciar y valorar el trabajo! Un cordial saludo ☺
thank you😭
Every instrument pops
Gracias por compartir con tal excelente calidad! Amo tus videos
Muchas gracias, Diego. Me alegra saber que mis vídeos son apreciados :)
Buscando la melodìa y e encuentro con èsto. Wow excelente sonido y què nitidez, mis felicitaciones HiFisquarepants.
Love it every single groove thank you
This is beautiful, I criticize most vinyl freaks, because of their turntables, mostly crap, this is absolutely gorgeous, the brush is so throwback
A ese nivel quiero llegar!!!!!., se erizan los pelos!!!! sonido Fantástico!!!
Spectacular sound!
Ребят, СУПЕР !!!😁👍
Such beautiful camerawork! Wow!
I was thinking of investing in one of the lower-end ProJect turntables but this carbon arm is stunning
Sounds great, but unfortunately, it's not the full-length L.P version. Most of the instrumental music was cut out.
King of vinyl playing!
Lovely.
Wow, the quality of the recording is immediately apparent!
Superb presentation.
Fantastic sound! Fabulous video presentation!! The sub count of this channel doesn't reflect the true picture of the engaging high-quality content of this channel. I like and admire the content quality of your channel and MrVinylObsessive channel. Someday, come up with a new video on your cassette deck setup. Thanks. Best wishes from Calcutta, India.
That is VERY kind of you, I really appreciate that! :) Of course, my cassette decks will appear in upcoming videos ;)
@@HiFisquarepants we wait!!! :) greetingz from greece!!!
Beautiful setup. I like how the cartridge matches with wooden plint.
Plinth not Plint
@@ralex3697 probably just a typo...
Impecable video, extraordinaria calidad de sonido. Un placer audiovisual. Gracias
Gracias a ti, eres muy amable :)
awesome quality
Je n'ai qu'un mot à dire.............MERVEILLEUX 🥰❤️🔝❤️🥰
crazy audiophile CONFIRMED !!! LOL
Your setup is the dream
This is a beautifully shot video and it is no doubt awesome kit to sit in front of and listen to every crackle and pop. But everyone commenting here on the audio quality is suffering from a bad case of Emperor's New Clothes I'm afraid. After leaving this audiophile setup, the analog signal is being converted to numbers, compressed lossily by TH-cam, bounced off a satellite, decoded by TH-cam your end, turned back to analog by your laptop/phone's cheap headphone output and enjoyed on a variety of headphones/speakers, good bad and indifferent. Any 'quality', particularly detail, introduced by this kit will be more than negated by this chain. It's like using your phone camera to capture an Imax clip in the cinema, then watching it back and going 'woooow!'. Makes no sense.
all good points no doubt, but it sounds great on my studio monitors - good job
I like enjoy your every video and great music in the best quality! Keep sniping :)
Thank you Jan! Have a nice day :)
Gorgeous
Very nice video presentation.
Sin palabras ❤
Qué belleza las tomas del equipo
Set-up looks cool.
