| Van Halen or Van Hagar Whoooo...ooo Darkmoebius, nice punch in gut... father time is cruel/turned Eddie guitarboy into the Sea Hag. | |
| Share thoughts on Keith Jarrett A lot of the stuff he put out in the early 70's w/ Charlie Haden, Paul Motian and Dewey Redman and the Miles Davis work put him light years away from being new age. I'm nowhere near liking everything he does, but he's been on some great records. | |
| Van Halen or Van Hagar It's good to see that in this instance, (so far) the majority is not wrong. The post Roth band was a downgrade. (I know ... they sold more records). This doesn't change the fact that the quality knob got turned way down... the guitar work went sta... | |
| Modern Jazz Pianist recommendation Hey Ryan! When the system is down and it's raining I'll stoop to just about anything, (apologies for the hijack), but what are some of your favorite recent Shipp or Iyer releases? Also would recommend Art Lande for Ajackson1, (I think he's got a f... | |
| Modern Jazz Pianist recommendation If you're coming from Bob James and Joe Sample, Chick Corea Light As A Feather or Crystal Silence might not be too much of a leap. Might also wanna check out Wayne Horvitz (Sweeter Than The Day), some of the tamer Richie Beirach, a few George Duke... | |
| Grant Green's version of 'Round About Midnight There's a ton great stuff out there so you should get a lot of posts.-Ad Infinitum from The Denison Kimball Trio / Soul Machine disc has a palpable room presence and a mood similar to Round About Midnight, (most of the disc is a lot different).-Tr... | |
| Most overlooked LPs in the last 20 years The post reads "Most overlooked"... maybe it would be safe to say as an example that Led Zeppelin Presence (which has some of their best guitar and drum stuff on it) is more overlooked than Houses of the Holy. The first Patto and Trettioariga Krig... | |
| Double Albums/CDs, curse or blessing? Plenny of em' would probably have more impact if pared down. Alot of times a single cd is as long as a 2 album set so comparisons can get blurry. A few that I'm glad got released as double albums:Kraan/ LiveAllman Brothers/ Live At Fillmore EastZa... | |

| CDs with heavy, fast bass and/or long drum solos You might like Steve Fisk-999 Levels of Undo, (Fisk is from the instrumental rock band Pell Mell). It has huge low end electronic slabs and convoluted percussion that should give any speakers a workout... strangely, you can get this for around $1 ... | |
| Bass Clarinet Recordings I like the Edmund Welles stuff. Another good David Murray is Lucky 4. Christer Bothen discs have some excellent sound and playing on them. If you can get Budi and Gumbls, (also released as Budi Siebert Hmm...) on vinyl you'll probably be glad you ... | |
| Rolling Stone top 100 Guitarists - Howe/Van Halen Hey Tvad, hope things are going well...forgot to identify Joe Perry as the guy they put at 48, one notch above John McLaughlin. Rolling Stone, (i know jan wenner is a voracious Audiogon thread reader)... try polling or hiring someone who is famili... | |
| Rolling Stone top 100 Guitarists - Howe/Van Halen Didn't see any accompanying text but this is another poor job from RS, If putting together a list like this is your job (what you are supposed to be good at), less head up the ass should be expected. This one fails to prioritze based on levels of ... | |
| Downgrading... Is it possible??? Suggestions I hesitate to chime in since you have tried alot of gear i can only dream about and i've only heard a system w/ATC active speakers once. They are not inexpensive, but they might help knock down the space hog factor. I think there is a pair of scm1... |
