| Newly patented, infinitely adjustable system tuning I heard from a guy who said that in order for them to let you keep touching them, you have to be a celebrity. But then, that guy keeps touching them even if they DON'T let him. He has used lots of lawyers to get out of sticky situations, sometimes... | |
| The Vinyl Community's Mazzy's new "Cease & Desist" YouTube video. Considering what’s going at this very moment, I nominate the great compilation album of various artists performing Leiber & Stoller songs, the album’s title being There’s A Riot Goin’ On. Congratulations America, you are now just another banan... | |
| The Vinyl Community's Mazzy's new "Cease & Desist" YouTube video. Audiogon is also a music site. This thread is about songs used in a political manner. Anyone not wanting to read about a video addressing that topic is free to not do so. Ah, there’s a song right there: "Freedom" by Richie Havens (performed live i... | |
| Interesting development Some posts are over-simplifying the issue, others over-complicating it.Sidewinder by Lee Morgan is available in a new pressing (one title in the Blue Note Classic series) for $20-25. The copies of the album going for hundreds of dollars are differ... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @spiritofradio: I don’t know about the separate LP and CD issues, but the 50th anniversary deluxe boxset of Stage Fright comes out on Feb.12. It will include a live show from 1971, a show Robertson says is one of the best The Band ever did. I saw ... | |
| What’s the benefit of placing speakers like this? (diagonally at the corner) 100% in agreement @russ69 (I heard them at the Irvine Show, two different years. Best sound at both shows imo). To hear them is to want them! I first heard of Roger when he wrote his multi-part article on ESL’s for J. Gordon Holt, published in Ste... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @spiritofradio: I don’t know if you got this pressing of the Albert King Elvis album, but there is one offered by reissue company Vinyl Me Please that is reportedly great. I just ordered my copy a coupla days ago from a seller on Discogs.@mammothg... | |

| Degritter brand ultrasonic record cleaner One way to look at the price of a machine such as The Degritter is: if your local used-record store were to charge you $1 to clean an LP on an USC, would you do it? Well, if you have 3,000 LP's in your music library (a reasonable number), buying a... | |
| Best rock song of all times I didn't read through all the posts, and I'm not certain what "Rock" means, but at the moment I have a special love of "A Whiter Shade Of Pale" (as much Classical as Rock, what with it's J.S. Bach compositional elements) and "The Weight", two maje... | |
| Degritter brand ultrasonic record cleaner Finally is right @prof! I'll bet the Degritter company was so back-ordered they didn't have a spare to send him (at no cost to him). Plus, they were selling every machine they could make, no need for a review. Fremer gets most the new-release/reis... | |
| RIP Tony Rice Great article @patrickdowns, thanks. The bassist mentioned in it (Todd Phillips) is an old friend of mine from San Jose. He was leaving a band I was just joining in '71, to focus on studying mandolin with David Grisman up in Marin County. David en... | |
| TUBE BIAS, socket to me! In his Music Reference section of the AudioCircle Forums, Roger Modjeski provided lots of info about tubes, including their biasing. Those writings are still available for viewing. | |
| RIP Tony Rice Damnit. Wouldn't ya know it? He was Art Dudley's favorite flat picker. |
