| Most of us have this in our collections .... Exactly oregonpapa, musical. Plus, ask any drummer and he'll tell you how hard "Take Five" is to play well. Hard, really hard. Not just technically, but with the right feel. An elusive thing, feel. | |
| Bob Dylan MoFi Hehe! | |
| Do you have a secret "guilty pleasure" recording? tostadosunidos---It was precisely because of their surfing/cars/girls lyrics that The Beach Boys were considered so uncool to like in the late 60's-early 70's (though not by my friends and I, and perhaps you, if you're old enough!). They were view... | |
| Most of us have this in our collections .... Not me, but I did see drummer Joe Morello with guitarist Bola Sete in '67. | |
| Bob Dylan MoFi Dylan's 60's albums are available as Mono LP's on both Sundazed and Sony. Whether or not the upcoming MF versions are better than either remains to be heard. | |
| Do you have a secret "guilty pleasure" recording? Amongst my peers (Americana/No Depression/roots types), it is not politically correct to like Shania Twain. Steve Earle called her "The highest paid lap dancer in Nashville"! I don't care, I like her records. Yeah, it's not really country---it's P... | |
| interesting phenomena in the cutting room Right Myles, the comparison would be of not only the formats themselves, but of the playback gear as well. It was in the latter sense I was suggesting a recording be made available in the three formats. I believe it possible to produce them all in... | |
| Artists' lps that don't get the respect deserved Yeah Slaw, that first album of Andrew's is a good one. I used to see Andrew around Sherman Oaks (in the valley on the other side of the Hollywood Hills), and once attempted to ask him about a project I heard he was doing with Graham Gouldman, memb... | |
| Should a Jack and Coke be renamed a Lemmy Instead of drinking a mediocre whiskey and adding a sweetener to it, why not just drink a better whiskey? Johnny Walker Black is much better, and doesn't cost that much more. Besides, adding Coke to alcohol is for girls and sissies ;-). | |
| Bob Dylan MoFi Geoff, if MF is saying the LP's will be mono, it's highly doubtful Modern Times will be one of them. Mono reissues are always of albums that were originally available in mono, meaning 60's releases. I wouldn't mind contemporary recordings being mi... | |
| If you won the power ball tomorrow night would you Maybe build a small theater with great acoustics, and hire my favorite artists to come play live for my guests and I. A concert a week, maybe more. Engage Kavi Alexander to record the shows, so we can finally get great music recorded in great sound. | |
| Turntable for life The first table I was really happy with was a VPI HW-19 Mk.2, but the Townshend Rock is THE table for use with a Decca/London cartridge. Since I will most likely be using a Super Gold Mk.VII and Reference for the remainder of my years, the Rock it... | |

| Audio Research PH6 Phono Stage - How is it? One great thing about the Herron and Zesto is their versatility. Unlike most phono amps (ARC included), they have separate MM and MC inputs, with dedicated circuits. If you add a high output cartridge to your system, with the Herron and Zesto you ... | |
| Klipsch love them or hate them. Bob, the thing is the sound heard at most concerts is coming from a PA system, which is what Klipsch speakers sound like. Live acoustic music does NOT sound like that. If a listeners reference is the sound of a PA system, Klipsch should be fine. |
