| Quincy Jones Interview Good point mapman, about the Lennon/McCartney songs authorship. Once they went solo, it became rather apparent, if one couldn’t already tell, which of them wrote any particular later Beatles song. I believe by the time of Rubber Soul, they were no... | |
| Small room electrostat/ planar speaker? tomic601, you must mean the Eminent Technology LFT-8b? That speaker is 5' tall and 13" wide and deep, so might be too big for the op's room. It was for that reason I suggested it's smaller brother, the LFT-16, a monitor-size speaker. | |
| Quincy Jones Interview Fake news, schubert. You may be thinking of "My Sweet Lord" by George Harrison, on his All Things Must Pass album. The copyright holder of the song "He's So Fine" sued for plagiarism and won. The two songs share a chord sequence and melody in thei... | |
| Favorite Dylan? Planet Waves is cool, recorded live in the studio with The Band in late 1973, released in January ’74. He and they then embarked on his first tour since 1965-6 (also backed by them on that tour, they then known as The Hawks.). The double album of ... | |
| Quincy Jones Interview "I have no idea why Cream broke up. Eric wanted to go solo maybe?"Eric revealed why he ended Cream in his interview in The Last Waltz:"Music had been going in the wrong direction for a long time. When I heard Music From Big Pink (The Band's debut ... | |
| Favorite Dylan? I too loved it at the time of it’s release (I still have my original LP). I found the reaction to the lyrical content amusing. I guess the counter-culture didn’t listen to the lyrics of the John Wesley Harding album, which was released at the heig... | |
| Where do I start-amp or speakers ? I’m with ct0517 on this one (and other ones. We both love and own old Quads). The speaker/room relationship is for me the most important consideration in a system, and the place to start. This is a matter of some disagreement, but there is far mor... | |
| Deoxit for cables Perhaps the Caig ProGold G5 Connector Enhancer is a different type of product than Deoxit 100 or D5 Deoxit. Are "connector enhancer" and "cleaner" synonyms? | |
| Quincy Jones Interview John Lennon was a very good rhythm guitarist (Don Everly was a FANTASTIC one!). Is Quincy Jones even aware of the function rhythm guitar plays in Rock ’n’ Roll music? I doubt it. That is just one example of what makes his opinion of The Beatles as... | |
| Quincy Jones Interview Ringo Starr was considered by some (many? most?) to be the worst musician in The Beatles (not true; John was ;-), yet he had a fair number of defenders who were themselves well respected by their Jazz peers. One such was Gregg Bissonnette, the dru... | |
| Quincy Jones Interview Buddy Holly: "Jazz is strictly for the stay-at-homes." | |
| Can I view past sales The ebay system lets you see past sales, as well as listings that didn't sell. Go to "Advanced search" and put in the component you want to find out about. | |
| "Original" equipment vs. upgraded equipment cleeds, I inadvertently left out the fact that the Factory Reconditioned LS-2B Mk.2 were sold for $1995. Then, only after all of them were sold did ARC sent the remaining brand new, never owned, non-reconditioned LS-2B Mk.2’s to their dealers, who... | |
| TT mats Thanks invictus005, but the Isodamp is not for my tables, all which have platters made either entirely of Delrin (Townshend Audio Rock), or aluminum with a top layer of Delrin (VPI). I have looked at the Isodamp for constrained layer applications,... | |
| TT mats Oops! I was looking at the R.S. Hughes Industrial Supplier website, and misread the price sheet. The $238 amount is correct, but that's for a piece 5.4" by 4 feet, not 4 inches! If I had thought about it for a minute, it would (or should) have bee... |
