Throw it out!


I just discovered a technique that will save a lot of aggravation.  When I find a record that is not satisfying me sound-wise (or sometimes musically,) I dispose of it or relegate it to the inactive file.  Rather than having it available in my collection to aggravate me, it gives me great satisfaction to get rid of it!

What if you change tor mind?  I have had many bad first listens to recordings, only to revise an opinion on subsequent hearing.  Sometimes it was the mood I was in on the first hearing.  Other times, in Classical Music, I can be imprinted by my initial acquaintance with a given piece, and at first hearing just dismiss an alternative but equally valid approach as just plain’wrong’, and then reverse that judgement upon rehearing.
