Classic Pop/Rock music (file-sharing) sources needed

[mh1313]

I know of plenty of decent, frequently-updated (i.e., very few dead links) F-S resources for classical-music and film-soundtrack ...

What I'm looking for are a similarly-busy and "well-stocked" source for "Classic" Pop/Rock (mostly 70s-80s progressive or art rock, certain popular stuff, too).

Other requirements are: Early NON-REMASTER lossless rips. For CDs, this may include 1st press Japanese or "Target" West German.
MFSL (Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs), Audio Fidelity, DCC, "gold" discs and other "audiophile" labels are cool.
Vinyl/LPs rips are cool, too.
Mainstream remasters (anything after 1995ish) are generally too compressed and LOUD. Google or Wiki "loudness war" for more info on this .... but this is the main reason the early CDs have become so highly sought after.

Sites/forums/blogs I'm already aware of:

• AVAX (avaxhome)
• Certain Blogspots (but I may be missing a lot here as Google, while owning Blogspot, discriminates against Blogspots that contain file-share links).
• Bold.cd is "okay" but not a lot of lossless there.

I don't do T*rrents (simply because I've never been able to make them work).

You can reply below or PM me. PM may be best as certain "juicy" sites need to be ... uh ... protected

Thanks in advance!
