Marty Stuart on Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Excellent insights into the lyrics of J.R. Robertson, @stuartk!Speaking of the American aspect: One reason I hold The Band in much higher regard than TP & THB is because of the depth of their musical roots. Organist Garth Hudson is a profound ... | |
Marty Stuart on Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Yeah @fuzztone, and NRBQ live are just incredible. Terry Adams’ piano and clavinet playing on stage, as well as Al Anderson’s guitar playing and Joey Spampinato’s bass playing (Keith Richard’s choice as Bill Wyman’s replacement in The Stones. Joey... | |
What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report ^ Ha! ;-) | |
what would be the best speaker cable under 1k used or new to used with the 3.6 maggies I don't know about best, but the Clear Day Double Shotgun is good with Maggies. It retailed for $500/8 ft. pair when available, but is now out-of-production. Patience is required! | |
Marty Stuart on Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: I know when I make my own statements (as apposed to Marty making his), I should use the term "my favorite" instead of "the best". But to tell you the truth, I choose to do that for a reason: I do it when I feel to do so is the only way I can make ... | |
Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! Expensive reissues? Analogue Productions single LP’s are $35. So are those from MoFi, Speaker’s Corner, Intervention Records, and many more audiophile reissue labels.Try and find a "white hot stamper" copy of Pet Sounds, Smiley Smile, or Wild Hone... | |
CD Player Tweak Also worth looking into is the E-A-R Isodamp SD125, made specifically for damping vibrations in metal panels. Michael Percy Audio sells all the E-A-R products. | |
Considering a POSSIBLE replacement for speakers. Opinions? You have a lot of good choices. The Magnepan LRS with a pair of subs (especially the GR Research/Rythmik OB Sub) is a good one, the Maggie-killer Eminent Technology LFT-8B an even better one. VPI’s Harry Weisfeld considers it to have the best midr... | |
Distributed Bass Array configuration Brian Ding includes a continuously-variable 0-180 degree (0-16ms delay) Phase Control on his top-level Rythmik subs for a reason. If a loudspeaker is mated with a subwoofer or two---the speaker and sub(s) used with an electronic cross-over set to,... | |
Bobby Whitlock on All Things Must Pass. @rwwaer, It's good to know I haven't been alone in feeling as I have since the original releases of ATMP. And to learn that George himself had misgivings and eventually regrets about Spector's production of the album.Bobby Whitlock enthusiasticall... | |
Bobby Whitlock on All Things Must Pass. Yup tostado, Paul is one fine musician. I still really love his first few albums (I have them on UK LP’s), and they have held up very well. I lost some respect for him, however, when Denny Seiwell (Wings’ drummer) told those of who attended the dr... | |
VTL Service ?? On the opposite side of the scale is Keith Herron at Herron Audio. Best cs in the business. There are plenty of good guys making great tube amps; why buy product made by a company like VTL?However: If you buy new from a VTL dealer, it is HE should... | |

John Hiatt and The Jerry Douglas Band hit the road! @limbonner: If you’re interested, there is a Barnes & Noble exclusive version available---the cover autographed by John and Jerry, the vinyl black/gray splatter. There is also an Independent Record Store version on blue marble vinyl, and of co... | |
Bobby Whitlock on All Things Must Pass. Back to George:My favorite of his post-Beatles work is, by far, that made as a member of The Traveling Wilburys. I don't think George was a strong enough singer to be a "front man", but well suited to being a member of a group.I also think his tal... |
