| A New Believer The cables I use are not expensive at all. I have another set of moderately priced speaker cables that make my set-up sound bright and steely. Am I crazy? | |
| A New Believer Sure cables are all basically serving the same function, but... you can buy cables made of a verity of materials implemented in a verity of ways. Why -must- it be impossible that they sound different? | |
| A New Believer I believe there is a difference. I have heard it. I don't believe that more $$ necessarily means better. I also believe that you can trick yourself, or be tricked. | |
| "God Bless the Child" on Idol? Pia lacked something for me somehow. Not to say she isn't very talented. She chose the wrong uptempo for her last night. Without a huge amount of energy, the performance of that Tina Turner song fell a little flat. And what was up with that outfit... | |
| Reading threads and posts when selling and buying Would you buy an amp from someone who had recently initiated a thread like "Who repairs blowed up amps in Scranton?" | |
| Song covers that are better than the originals "A Hillbilly Tribute to Mountain Love" by Hayseed Dixie. Ever think that what was missing from "Walk This Way" was a little jews harp and fiddle? "Fat Bottom Girls" really needed a some hot mandolin licks? Do you like to drink? If you answered yes... | |
| Who is the World's Best 'New' Female Vocalist Just saw Grace Potter on Conan last night. Not the style for the spirit this discussion has taken, but she has a nice rock voice. Maybe not quite an Ann Wilson, but have not heard enough to say.Now, if this was a hot legs contest, she walks away w... | |
| the guess who vs the rock and roll hall of fame All this talk reminds me of when Kevin Spacey sang on that John Lennon Tribute show. Another great moment in the World of of Lame. | |
| Disappointing Evening I have found people like to listen to music outdoors. Set a system up on your deck and let people wander further away to sit in your yard or garden. We usually get compliments on the unusual music (to most folks) we play. But I know it's the good ... | |
| Disappointing Evening I remember how great the B&O stuff looked. Very euro-modern stylish. Impressive turntables that just didnt happen to sound as good as the pedestrian Thorens 160.Most people don't know the difference, but given extended exposure to superior sou... | |
| the guess who vs the rock and roll hall of fame Well twist my knickers! Don't know the story of why the Moody Blues are passed over, but they are one of rock's iconic bands, so there's that.As for the Guess Who, how can they be overlooked? Lots of hits with real hooks, great singer. Maybe this ... | |
| Best Stevie Wonder Album? Second for Innervisions. From "Too High", to "Living for the City", to "Higher Ground" and "All in Love is Fair" this is one of the strongest releases by any artist. Not a false step or weak song throughout. And my favorite by Stevie. | |
| Lucinda Williams live Sorry to hear some didn't take to Lucinda. I fell for her the first time I saw/heard her on Session at West 54th. I got "Car Wheels" for my brother. It took him a little time to warm up to her sound, but now he really loves her. I consider her one... | |
| Who is the World's Best 'New' Female Vocalist Grace Potter is on Leno tonight (rerun). | |
| "God Bless the Child" on Idol? I just found Thia's performance on America's got Talent. Didnt know she was on that show when she was 14, astounding. I like her even better now. She has talent well beyond her years. She is exactly what I was referring to above, not having to rel... |
