There's a super nice vinyl version of Cafe Blue you can show off your vinyl system with, assuming you have one.
What are you streaming tonight?
As we are in the modern age of music I thought I would see how this fares.
We have threads specific for cdp and tt so why not streaming as it is a modern media.
I don't care if you stream Tidal, Deezer, Spotify, Paradise Radio or any number of internet stations.
I would like you to share your tastes and method of streaming.

The Beatles - Revolver Qobuz I came across this article on Discogs about how listening to this album on headphones improves many of its engineering faults. I thought I’d break out my Meze 99 Noir headphones and check out the authors assertions. They make some good points. https://blog.discogs.com/en/headphone-experience-the-beatles-revolver/?utm_medium=pm&utm_source=... |

Mulatu Astatqé – Éthiopiques 4: Ethio Jazz & Musique Instrumentale 1969-1974 Qobuz Interesting jazz compilation from Ethiopia |
New release Friday - checking out Gary Moore's How Blue Can You Get on Qobuz. Apparently it's unreleased material culled from his archives after he passed on. I'm really enjoying it so far. Our friend uberwaltz has left the building. I haven't talked to him in a while, but he was done with the forums. |
BTW, I tend to be more active in finding music and don’t like to rely on computer algorithms. They tend to pigeonhole their suggestions after a while. I have found the UDiscover Music has some good articles and the ubiquitous “Best Of” lists. If I am interested in a particular style of music they probably have an article about it; that helps me to plan my listening. A recent article is posted below: https://www.udiscovermusic.com/stories/the-100-greatest-blues-albums/ |
n80 I wholeheartedly agree! I don’t use Qobuz’s recommendations, but then again I enjoy the thrill of the hunt. The people on this thread always post stuff I am willing to check out. And Qobuz does have a large library. Per your earlier suggestion, I try to post rudimentary descriptions about what I’m listening to when I have the time or inclination. I only seem to post about half the stuff I listen to, though, due to time or laziness. But I do like it when someone advocates for music I’m not familiar with, and I am more likely than not to check it out. I have had a few revelations that way. Speaking of the OP, has anyone heard from uberwaltz lately? |
A thought about this thread: I check here often to look for new music to listen to. I like Qobuz but it sucks when it comes to recommending stuff based on your previous listening. As far as I can tell it does not have that feature at all and I might drop it for that reason. But, it would be nice if folks would put a brief description of what they're listening to and why they like it, especially if it is less popular/more obscure type stuff. Just seeing the name of an artist and the album does not help much when looking for new music. I'm also guilty of just listing what I'm listening to without any editorial content so I'm not criticizing. I just think this would be a more useful thread with some description, etc. If I'm out of line just ignore me and apologies to the OP (uberwaltz) if that is the case. |
big_greg I really enjoyed the live Norah, too! One of the apparent side effects of the pandemic is the proliferation of live recordings being issued. Artists can’t tour, so they have to make money by releasing live performances or new material. And since we are all at home I guess they have a ready audience! |
