| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? Well, I know it's a touchy subject, and perhaps too heavy to get into here, but one can't help but wonder what place jazz would hold amongst the American public if its legacy was laced with predominantly white artists as opposed to black artists. ... | |
| D'Agostino Interview He's not a believer in hi $ cables. I love it! | |
| Why Doesn't Contemporary Jazz Get Any Respect? Wow, what a great post from 8 years back that avoided me until today.I find it extremely interesting that not one contributor to the post mentions that Jazz, like it or not, IS considered America's only true art form.Smooth Jazz as I recall evolve... | |
| The many musical faces of Mr. Miles Davis? You got to give it to the man. He was in perfect position to have done a more commercially viable thing, ala Wes Montgomery, during the 60's. Miles Davis could have easily out Botti'ed Chris Botti during those radical 60's producing hot cool comme... | |
| Best Keith Jarrett records 'Never let me go' is in fact a must have gem of Keith's. I love his use of space to build the tune. Brilliant stuff. Another equally good ballad is 'It's easy to remember' from the live PA recording I mentioned earlier. A third ballad, probably my... | |
| Zu Soul Superfly Ha, Phil are you sayin' my 50 year old D'Angelico never sounded so good as being played back through a pair of Zu's? Oh my, think of the money I could save combining guitar needs with audio needs. Only on AG! | |
| Martin Logan Quest Z Bass - can it be fixed ? Unsound, you felt stepped on by my response? I realize it flew in the face of what you'd suggested about the product being difficult to drive, but that's what differing opinions do. It's not personal. Your experience has not been mine, that's all.... | |
| Martin Logan Quest Z Bass - can it be fixed ? Mikey44, for my money I'd scratch the idea of investing money into a pair of Quest Z's, and instead go with a pair of Vista's, which one can find in the area of $2k, if it's an issue of attempting to meet a budget concern. Even Vantages which have... | |
| Martin Logan Quest Z Bass - can it be fixed ? Unsound, that's cute. If you read my post correctly rather than with the obvious intent of making a false smear against mine, you'd have read the items I promoted are in fact NOT for sale. My comments merely shined a positive light of possibilitie... | |
| Best Keith Jarrett records I consider myself as big a KJ fan as anyone. I've got many of his recordings and all of his dvd releases of the Japan concerts, which most were recorded from the mid to late 80's. His trio work is the best place to begin I would think because it's... | |
| Jazz must have pressings??? Pryso, you're preachin' to the choir with many of those selections. Perhaps I wasn't clear. I'm seeking to expand my vinyl collection beyond the huge amount of piano and guitar vinyl I have. I've tons of cd's, but it's my vinyl collection, or rath... | |
| Jazz must have pressings??? Babybear, are you certain Monty Alexander is on that Summerwind recording with Ray Brown? Ray did a Summerwind recording with Gene Harris on piano. Probably one of their hottest recordings during their 80-90's pairing. Check Gene out on 'Can't hel... | |
| Jazz must have pressings??? Thanks for the tip Elizabeth, will do.Philjolet, archtops with fixed pickups are my thing. They're spendy but worth it. CB is fabulous. I've too many favorites to mention, Montgomery, Burrell, Green, the list is endless. | |
| SVS Cylinder Subs - WAF I bought a PC12 to mate with a pair of CLS'. Seems folks are exaggerating the size a bit. Sure it's vertical, but it has a small footprint as far as I'm concerned. It's similar to having a double sized tube trap in the corner. The SVS is the most ... | |
| How Many Turntables Have You Owned Probably a dozen, counting the 5 I currently own now. 4 vintage JVC DD's (2 QLY-5F's a QLY7 and a QLY-3F). What can I say I have a thing for this series of early 80's DD's from JVC. They compete with almost anything current today. In my main rig I... |
