Thanks Slip knot - I agree it is a good thread. I had by-passed it because it is titled "whats on your turntable tonight?" and I dont have much vinyl. Mostly play redbook CD.
Proposal - lets share our treasures
I am a few months new to augiogon. I find our site of high value to help with an equipment purchase, and love the equipment talk, and the character and knowledge to its members. That said, I must confess that I find the energy and space devoted to equipment to be huge, relative to the space devoted to music.
I propose that all members, who have interest, make a committment to share through a post anytime they encounter a new (or old) treasure of a recording regardless of genre. In the post perhap state what appeals e.g. passionate performance, interesting interpretation, lyrics, beauty to melt your heart, sonic quality, etc.
This would support the wisdom of the site that often states "take time to enjoy the music", "its all about the music" and encourage all of us to expand into new sonic adventures. Not all of us can afford the best in equipment, but we can all afford the best CD or LP.
