| Whats playing on your system today? Great, reubent. I see the Written In Chalk LP in your future! The two Buddy & Julie albums are of a piece, the same but different, like The Band’s 1st and 2nd albums. Buddy’s guitar song parts and little solos are SO cool, and his production S... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report First takes are fine, but it's nice to have played the song at least once before you're in the studio, or at least heard it! Dylan has written songs while the recording band sits around playing cards, but he has a big recording budget. On the Moon... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Damn gh, you nailed Evan's sound! His Surf element is what got us the gig for the album. By the way, the original drummer in The Hillbilly Soul Surfers was Pete Curry, now bassist in Los Straightjackets. Pete's an old friend of mine from San Jose ... | |

| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report For Roy Buchanan lovers who haven' yet discovered him, be sure and give Danny Gatton a listen (start with the WB 2-disc CD collection).

| Harbeth Question Danny Richie designed the GR Research OB/Dipole Sub (the R in GR is for Richie), along with Brian Ding of Rythmik Audio. Jim, have you considered building one of Danny’s OB speaker designs? OB speakers mate particularly well with OB subs, of cours... | |

A 2-way outboard line-level crossover takes the full-range signal from the pre-amp, divides that signal in two... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! prof, keep in mind the IsoAcoustic rubber Pods are rated to only 20 lbs each. The company is promoting the Pods for use with sources, amplifiers, and monitor speakers, and the Gaia Isolators for use with floor-standing speakers, which often weight... | |
| Vinyl from Barnes & Noble jnorris, since as you say B & N's LP stock is of more mainstream music than that of a "real" record store, and mainstream music is more likely to have a digital ingredient than does underground music (as we use to call it), you may be right. Y... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Follow-up on Buddy & Julie Miller:I hadn't listened to their Written In Chalk album (their 2nd, from 2009) in a while, but did last night. Wow, it may be even better than their 1st! Great, great songs (most written by Julie), fantastic product... |
