Let's talk music, no genre boundaries

I have lots to say!  I like almost every kind of music.

I thought I would try out some classical.  Back when I thought I had a good stereo.  Definitely passable.  Always had a nice sized room. I as a member of BMG CD service.  I could get them for 3 or 4 bucks.  I ended up with about 80 CDs.  I ended up with several Living Stereo and Mercury Living Presence recordings.  These were great performances.

I had several favorites.

Fritz Reiner and Chicago Orchestra.  Mussorsky and Rachmaninoff were great.

Leopold Stokowski and Philadelphia Orchestra.  Rhapsodies 

The most powerful Tuneful strings I have ever heard.  

Frederick Fennell Dallas Wind Symphony Trittico  Some of the finest recordings.  Dynamic is not the word for it!! I s there another?  Several Reference Recordings are excellent

There are several more but I will save them

I realized something the other day.  I have always listened to music. I had a system but just no attention to details.

Now I have mostly newer equipment and Qobuz.   I hear things in songs that were a surprise to me.  So many more details and better tone.  I get lost in new stuff.  Most styles I listen to are not new anymore.

The other day I listened to Pat Metheny Bright Sized life.  Him and Jaco, what a pair.i had not listened to that album for 30 years.

Today I listened to Grateful Dead Europe 72. SUgar Magnolia.  Most rocking and fun version I have hears. Just listening to Grateful Dead concerts took me awhile!

I currently have 6000ish songs tagged.  That is a pared down version that is 90% acceptable to most people.  Qobuz helped me finish this up after 6 years. Enjoy the Music
