Which artists do you just not get? Imin2u-that's not what the thread asks for at all.It doesn't say list stuff you don't like then fans should post why these artists/musical forms are valid-that might have been slightly more interesting, though I doubt even detailed validation of s... | |
5 best underrated or unknown bands and why? Backtoanalog-yes but the only reason some of the members of Lambchop have to work jobs on the side is because there's so many of them!There must be about 15 in that live band! | |
Which artists do you just not get? I don't know about artists but I never really got threads like this-what's the point?I worship Dylan but the fact that some people either hate his voice,his hair or his songs really doesn't come as a big surprise.There's not much I don't get but s... | |
Better than Norah Jones...? Ooops only meant that as a recommendation not opinions on what is better than Norah Jones-doh.But er good idea anyway.I think Norah Jones is ok but............... | |
Proac D15 versus.... Art,I can only go with what two local dealers have told me that the D15's are wonderful speakers better than the Response 2.5's.I'm on the look out for a pair myself at a good price.... | |
How many CD/LPs do you need? I intend to build the biggest collection I can.I've enjoyed watching it grow.I do recycle CD's for two reasons.One if a better remaster comes out or if I consider it a donkey with no reedeming features-this only happens occassionaly.I am quite hap... | |
New Steely Dan; Great Music w/ Surgical Precision As a critic of 2AN I should be careful what I say after a couple of listens but.........Ok I don't care too much for the overall groove-too precise as the doctor pointed out but if I'm not mistaken this new one seems a little bit looser,a little m... | |
5 best underrated or unknown bands and why? Marakanetz,Sorry I don't, I like Can a lot based on what I've heard but I haven't really done on any great research on them.I would imagine Ebay in Germany or somewhere on the web would have the original stuff you are looking for....I may check ou... | |
5 best underrated or unknown bands and why? Again we fall into problems with definitions and depends how knowledgable you are about music.Lambchop are widely known and touted in the press all the time,turning up constantly in the end of year lists.They probably make a good to decent living ... | |
Has audiophilia changed your music taste? I don't think I'm kidding myself at all.I'm not even sure as many point out how you can split the difference between your own tastes developing and a developing system.I lot of what is described as Audiophile music puts me to sleep-Partrica Barber... | |
Has audiophilia changed your music taste? Me neither-hasn't made the slightest bit of difference to the music I listen to.I don't even know how it could unless you were more interested in the recording quality than the actual music. | |
CDP - Wadia 830/Cary 303/Ayre CX7 Macct-this is just on the Ayre CX-7 which I own-I haven't heard ther other two players.I think it does an excellent job with poorer recorded CD's and releases that are now quite old.It tends to bring out more dimension and instrument placing withi... | |
Rock Music: 1951-1976 vs. 1977-2003 As a 39 year old music fan who basically grew up in the later era and who is still as enthuasiastic about new music as he ever was....then I have to say clearly the early era is superior.It isn't even close.I do actually think most of that was dow... | |
All the Cconcerts you can ‘Remember’ Attending? Richingoth you've seen an amazing amount of gigs-could you perhaps state what where the best?I'd be interested to hear the opinion of someone who has seen such a comprehensive list of artists. | |
All the Cconcerts you can ‘Remember’ Attending? John Hiatt I forgot him,good gig too......... |
