tomic601 Listened to Tea for the Tillerman twice already. Of course, I’ve listened to the original about 400 times. Uakti - Philip Glass: Aguas da Amazonia Qobuz |
uberwaltz i liked the Argent album very much. Some of the songs sounded familiar, so I may have listened to it in the past. |
Joan Osborne - Trouble and Strife Qobuz My God! She still sounds great! Haven’t really heard her since the early 90s when I was living in Austin. Fell in love with her after “Right Hand Man”. Stumbled across a few of her performances on TV after that, but she fell off my radar also. Nice to know she is still going strong. |
Steve Earl - Guitar Town Qobuz I used to listen to this on a scratchy cassette in the early 90s when I was running between Austin and San Antonio. I lost the cassette years ago, but listening to this album brought back memories. And yes, Selma is a real speed trap...and I was listening to this album the trooper pulled me over. He almost cracked a smile. |
melvinjames Thanks for pointing this out. Really enjoying it. Houston Person and Ron Carter - Now's The Time/Something In Common Qobuz |
Kurt Vile - Speed, Sound, Lonely KV (EP) Qobuz Hi-Res You know how you and your spouse try really hard to make the relationship work but you’re both miserable so you finish it, then you find a smart and beautiful person who you are in perfect harmony with and things are so much better. Yeah, it’s like that. |
I just got the Massdrop Meze 99 Noir. Also ordered the 3 meter cable, and Brainwavz Sheepskin angled ear pads are in the mail. They are sounding really great right now, but should sound even better after some burn in. My wife prefers closed back headphones so I expect she will co-opt them once she tries them. Seriously considering Grado SR80e’s during the upcoming Amazon Prime Day sales, maybe modding them with G-Cush ear pads. That would make five pairs of earphones, and I just finished building a headphone rack that holds five pair. I should just leave it alone... |
big_greg Good point about headphones. A relatively inexpensive way to scratch the hi-fi itch. I have been in a mood to buy stuff since I’ve been stuck at home and streaming a lot. I broke down and ordered a pair of floor speakers last week (Zu Dirty Weekends) to replace my Elac Debut 6.2s. Is it my imagination or has it been quiet here lately? |
