"The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". Perhaps I'm paranoid, but I believe carlsbad2's post was directed at me. | |
"The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". @stuartk: Your comments about Hiatt’s Slow Turning album ("It’s too bad that same group didn’t click when they went into the studio to record Slow Turning") seems to imply that it---like Bring The Family---was recorded with Ry Cooder, Nick Lowe, a... | |
"The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". @gjohns: Mine too. "The Weight" is in my top 5 or so songs of all-time. One of Robertson's best songs was at the other end of their career: "It Makes No Difference", sung by bassist Rick Danko. The controversy about TNTDODD is in its' view of the... | |
RIP Tom Jones It appears many others are as mistaken as I was 😊. @roxy54. My dad's taste was more like your parents. Smooth vocals, especially Andy Williams. The great thing about Andy Williams is that he had Henry Mancini songs offered to him first. I adore "... | |
RIP Tom Jones Oops, I wasn’t paying close enough attention! @roxy54: My mom liked Johnny Cash and Elvis. Guess my taste in music started forming at an early age! I heard that Ring Of Fire album hundreds of times before I entered High School. | |
"The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". Oops, "Lipstick Sunset". @roxy54: Absolutely, you’ll get no argument from me on that point. When I said The Band spoiled me for just about everyone else, the "me" was intentional. I don’t think one should assume that statement implies I think eve... | |
As he promised, Guttenberg reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8c. Ric is serious about cabinets. When he was building speakers using the BG NEO drivers and Rythmik/GR Research 12" woofers mounted on an open baffle, he made the baffle with 3 layers of MDF, Green Glue between layers. I made my open baffle (W-fram... | |
RIP Tom Jones Believe it or don't, but Tom and John Lennon were pals. He had a hell of a voice, but my mom considered his tight pants vulgar.😊 | |
As he promised, Guttenberg reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8c. @peter_s: Very well. In fact, since the LFT-8b has limited response below 40Hz or so, it is an excellent candidate for add-on subs. And since the response of the woofer at 40Hz and above is unusually "fast"-sounding, it blends well with subs. I my... | |
As he promised, Guttenberg reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8c. Damn Ric, you’re gonna scare off potential LFT-8b/c buyers! Sure, an outright fanatic like Ric Schultz can concoct a Frankenstein LFT loudspeaker, but most audiophiles (including those reading this thread) are looking for a plug & play ... | |
How serious are you? Warning: I drank a bottle of champagne as I cooked dinner tonight, as the following may make obvious. We all started out first as music lovers (I myself bond with other humans first and foremost in terms of being fellow music lovers), eventually ... | |
Robbie Robertson has passed away :-( Robertson is also involved with the music for the upcoming Scorsese film Killers Of The Flower Moon. Very appropriate, given Robbie's Native American heritage. | |
As he promised, Guttenberg reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8c. Good points you raise @ledoux1238. I admit to having reservations about digitizing all signals passing through the DSP of the 8c (and the Sanders version of same). I accept the assertion that digital technology has improved to the point of it bein... | |
As he promised, Guttenberg reviews the Eminent Technology LFT-8c. The now-deleted post was from @vonhelmholtz, asking "Are you a dealer, or a representative of ET?" No offense taken, that’s a fair question. The answer is nope, just a very satisfied ET LFT-8b owner, doing what I can to help reward the outstandin... | |
Your last concert was to see who and when? @rpeluso: As is Jackson, whom I have somehow never heard live. Gotta do that before he or I die. Iris is very charming live, with lots of self-deprecating humour. Her piano playing is somewhat reminiscent of that of Randy Newman, with those New O... |
