Beatles vs. Stones Just watching the 3 hour (?) documentary Get Back. Going to take a few evenings to get through it. Billy Preston just joined them in the studio. For anyone who hasn't seen it yet, I highly recommend you spend some time with it. Fascinating to ... | |
Beatles vs. Stones @larsman Spend a penny means to go to the toilet, especially a public toilet. One usually is said to be going to spend a penny. The expression is derived from the fact that public toilets were installed in the United Kingdom in the mid-1800s that ... | |
Psychologist dissects Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' Didn't know about this until this morning. Love the reviewers comments towards the end. | |
Psychologist dissects Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' @clearthinker You have to be kidding. They're not even in the same league as RUSH, when it comes to worst band in the world. 🤣 | |
Beatles vs. Stones @larsman Ha Ha. the British have so many sayings that are not understood this side of the pond. I'm guessing you would also miss the reference to "spend a penny"? With Taxman, Harrison also references then Prime Minister Harold Wilson and Conser... | |
Beatles vs. Stones @curtdr Of course it's all personal taste when it comes to music, but I never understood why the "critics" continue to list Revolver as the greatest (or in the top 3) pop/rock LPs of all time. I will admit that Taxman could be the greatest polit... | |
Beatles vs. Stones There seems to be a common thread to a lot of postings, being the "older" music is better music, citing The Everly Brothers, early Beach boys etc.... as being the real creative stuff. I would submit that this is pure nonsense and just a bad case ... | |
Beatles vs. Stones And that's what I love about this site. A simple question was asked and @bdp24 decided a short novella was called for, but kind of forget to answer the question. 🤣 I shouted out who killed the Kennedys, well after all, it was you and me. | |
Psychologist dissects Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' @czarivey Yup. My wife & I went to see Waters in concert a few months ago. Went home after half the show. If I had wanted a lecture with bad political views, I could have got it for free on the internet. They had a good run but Waters shou... | |
Psychologist dissects Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' I always find it laughable when others try to read into a song, what they are sure the artist was trying to say. You can take almost any and every Pink Floyd song and find a way to see Waters was referencing Syd. And sometimes a Cigar is just a ... | |
Beatles vs. Stones While I love them both, and they are the soundtrack of my youth, the Glimmer Twins get more time on my system. There is no denying the genius of Lennon/McCartney as songwriters but the Stones have an edge to their music their Beatles could not ma... | |
Synergistic Research Master Fuse £565 I'm waiting for ASR's full review with measurements ! 🤣 | |
How hot is hot when moving from class a/b to to a or tubes? @mpoll1 I have been running two 50 watt tube mono blocks. See my virtual system to get an idea of the size. To answer your questions. Ready to play as soon as I turn them on. No great warm up period required. After they have been running f... | |
Bi-Wiring Well, it's not the first time we have been told it's more marketing than reality. Paul at PS audio sheds a little light on why bi-wire may have been a thing at one time. | |
Speaker Cable Recommendations - Under 2k @mihorn In the future, I would think it appropriate for all of your posts to begin with the clear disclosure "I HAVE A VESTED FINANCIAL INTEREST IN THE PRODUCTS I AM RECOMMENDING" I have no problem with anyone joining forums looking for business,... |
