"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery
"I love the Turntable Lab, great service & great products. There's no other store or site I'd rather buy my gear from. I'll sure keep on purchasing my equipment from TTL."- D. Martinez
"It's always nice to feel like you're appreciated, and you guys have done a great job with that."- R. Abeel
"Turntable lab constantly deliver the best and most current selection of modern music on all formats. It's my first stop for vinyl house and disco music. The reviews are accurate and I can trust the buyers to source quality product. Customer service is second to none and Bret has been nothing short of outstanding in every interaction we've ever had. Proud to be a Labhead." - G. Laurie
"First off I just want to thank you and your team for everything you do! The equipment and products you sell are awesome and exactly what artists like me need. I remember when I first discovered Turntable Lab by searching online for DJ equipment. I was looking all over for different equipment that I needed and when I found TTL I was relieved to find out that you guys basically had everything I was looking for." - C. Arroyo
"My Rane mixer arrived safely yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks to you and your team for your speedy response to my initial enquiry and efficient delivery. Great price and great service, I'll definitely be telling my friends about it." - A. McConnell (Marrickville, Australia)

Alice Coltrane may have whisked us to other dimensions with her harp on A Monastic Trio and World Galaxy, but Dorothy Ashby pioneered the use of the instrument in the jazz world. She implementing the harp in inventive ways; in addition to the cascading strumming we love Alice records for, Ashby plays in a subtle way that’s similar to jazz guitar without all the cringey bald white guy noodling. Check out her blissful version of Jimmy Webb’s “By The Time I Get To Phoenix,” or the break-heavy version of The Beatles’ “Fool On The Hill.” Ashby was bit by the Brazilian bug (like everyone else in jazz at the time), and her renditions of Baden Powell & Vinicius De Moraes’ “Canto De Ossanha” and Edu Lobo’s “Reza” are two of the album’s brightest moments. Released somewhat quietly in the interim between her acclaimed Afro-Harping album and her work with Bill Withers and Stevie Wonder (Songs In The Key Of Life!) in the 1970s, Dorothy’s Harp has since become regarded as a monument of soul jazz and highly sought-after by deep jazz diggers. The wildly unpredictable heads at Music On Vinyl have blessed us with a much-needed 180 gram audiophile blue vinyl pressing; the first time the album has been in print in almost 50 years! Limited to 750 individually-numbered copies.
