If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck I agree about Jamal Thomas; great pocket. But, for me, the king will always be Clyde Stubblefield. With Fred Wesley:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OMj9wwO1yT4And, of course, the classic “The Funky Drummer”:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AoQ4AtsFWVM | |

Jazz for aficionados This doesn’t happen too often. Check out the included clip:https://www.theguardian.com/music/2018/jun/08/lost-1963-john-coltrane-album-discovered | |
If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck Chazro’s mention of Maceo Parker made me think of this. Check out drummer Kenwood Dennard! https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFEE0078A61BE5C06 | |
Jazz for aficionados Nice article, acman3. Thanks. And great clip! Dexter was also known for being a prolific “quoter” of other tunes in his solos sometimes for humorous effect. I counted at least four in his solo in that clip including his often quoted “Mona Lisa... | |
Jazz for aficionados nsp, I agree about Dexter’s distinctive style; he has always been a favorite. He has always been known for having a very relaxed and “on the backside of the beat” style. What I referred to previously was what happened toward the end of his caree... | |

Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Excellent suggestions and analysis by Chris. vpi, while I have not used a HW19 for some time and ever since I got my TNT6, I did experience what you describe during the years that I did use it. It was a very low level, volume dependent, hum that I... | |
If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck No discussion of Funk would be complete without mention of these classic vintage funk albums:https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL94gOvpr5yt2-wFPNHTdQeVvJsQTCHV3Vhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aP6CXdWUpNQAnd probably the best (and very influential... | |
Beware the audio guru Some interesting reading here and thanks to all for the commentary. However, I’m not entirely sure what much of it really means or is truly useful in our individual pursuit of better audio. Clearly, there are different ways to approach this hobby ... | |
If You Like Funk: Check Out Vulfpeck I agree with chazro about TOP’s peak record. Back To Oakland is a great record; but I think that peak record status needs to be shared with Urban Renewal. Maybe putting too fine a point on things since they were both recorded the same year (1974),... | |
Jazz for aficionados Schubert, glad you enjoyed that J Henderson recording. I agree, as good as it gets. Top NY guys. It’s an interesting thing how, just as we speak of the differences between East Coast vs West Coast players as soloists, those differences give the en... |
