| The Good Stuff @ghosthouse check your library for The Penguin Guide To Jazz recordings. It’s 1300 pages of Jazz musicians and groups. If it’s not at your library, it is on Amazon. I can’t say I have found a better book on Jazz people. The Penguin Guide to J... | |
| Was 1971 the high point of popular music? @tony1954 yeah, I read your question. And the list of albums to. And I understood it to mean you’re saying there will never be a year where music was good as in 1971. Am I missing something? | |
| The Good Stuff @ghosthouse I love our library system here. They have an amazing amount of Jazz between all the branches that I can order on the app and go pick up CD’s and DVD’s when they come to my branch. | |
| Magico A3 replacement @grislybutter Thanks! I’ll keep that in mind.😀 | |

| Why isn't better quality used gear being made available? A month ago there was PS Audio BHK 300 amps on every site. And today there are none that I can find. I’m not sure what you are looking for, but you have to just keep looking. All the best. | |

| Magico A3 replacement @grislybutter What a great list! I plan on keeping it for future reference. | |

| Jazz for aficionados As I’ve said before, Bill Evans is in my top five pianists and that’s in all genres. | |
| Jazz for aficionados So I’m trying to listen to Walter Davis Jr. Trio, Scorpio album and it is so hard for me to get past Walter’s noises that are as loud as everything else on the album. Even my wife came out of the back room to ask what that horrible noise was. I ... | |
| Tune of the Day Ten Years After, Rock & Roll Music To The World. One of their best! | |
| Does it bother you when you see inflated MSRP’s for used gear on AG? There’s a sucker born every minute. If you are an Uninformed buyer, than you might be that sucker. | |
| Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563 , Bill Evans is definitely in my top five piano players. I really like the way he tickles the ivory’s. I’ll try to watch the documentary. Thanks. | |
| HoloAudio Spring 3 Kitsune DAC NOS While I don’t know your DAC, when listening to Jazz, I mostly leave my DAC on NOS, but sometimes I set it on OS and add a “Slow” filter if I listen to Rock. Play with all the settings and have fun. |
