Audiophiles & music-have you got it wrong? Some nice replies on this thread.Bombaywalla-nice post however a few points in response.PRICE OF MUSIC-maybe music is overpriced but is it different from other products?Isn't our high end equipment vastly overpriced?Not an excuse or justification ... | |
When is Wish You Were Here going to be SACD Dark Side Of The Moon | |
When is Wish You Were Here going to be SACD I'd like to qualify my last line because I mean if SACD does actually bring a major advantage over the CD layer on hybrids.Most of the hybrids I have heard (DSOM excluded)show a big advantage over their previous incarnations/mastering on CD and ar... | |
When is Wish You Were Here going to be SACD Zep have already released a disc on DVDA -I don't know if this means they'll stick with DVDA.DSOM on SACD was a wash out for me too-the biggest strength of this release apparently was the multi-channel mix.I don't want to get caught up on the SACD... | |
When is Wish You Were Here going to be SACD Fatparrot-there are 3 versions of WYWH that are better than the Shine On version imho.I have 4 different versions of the CD and one part version.The gold Sony/Columbia version in the long slip case.The '95 newer remaster (Shine on Was about '93 if... | |
Audiophiles & music-have you got it wrong? Pragmatist I'm afraid I never listened to music to piss off my parents-I took music in at a much deeper level than that.On such a weak foundation it's no surprise that you view certain styles of music as throwaway. | |
Audiophiles & music-have you got it wrong? Patrick-thanks for the kind words.By remasters I do mean worthwhile releases-like several last year that took CD replay to new levels.Amongst these were Beatles and Dylan and of course at last On The Beach by Neil Young in all it's ragged HDCD glo... | |
Audiophiles & music-have you got it wrong? Sean a very considered and thoughtful response however you are not the type of guy who is making the type of criticisms that tend to get my back up.I am not suggesting everybody should be like me,as I have a lot of free time and not too much respo... | |
Would you refer this to all interested parties? Some of the responses to this thread are tragic.I'm going bring up some of these issues on another thread. | |
Norah Jones on Bluenote?? Marakanetz-seems like you are having a pop at Springsteen now too.With all due respect you have to realise that personal response,interpretation or opinion without some kind of basis is pointless.I've seen this a few times recently,it's like turni... | |
Norah Jones on Bluenote?? Marakanetz-clearly she can sing and you as a Can fan should know that fitting someone into a specific box has no merit.You really believe if you took a straw poll that Helmut from Can would be considered a better singer?If you don't like her move ... | |
Norah Jones on Bluenote?? Snobbery. | |
Ryan Adams-more than hype Judasmac-Demolition wasn't particularly demos-the material on that record was taken from several different sessions and recordings-if I remember right he had three albums worth of material in the can.He didn't think any were finished and under a b... | |
Norah's new album,,FEB 9th. Can she do it again??? She co-writes on the occassional number but it's one of her band that writes the majority of the original stuff.I don't think it matters Geoff the next record will sell off the back of the original anyway.On a side note I bought the last Outkast C... | |
Records of the Year 2003 Phasecorrect I like what I've heard of the Darkness (the singles),they're good fun,a bit tongue in cheek obviously but the music is cleverly constructed.The TV Kana I've taken it out before and indeed covered the screen etc.etc, my opinon is that ... |
