@mr_m  & @jond - Gents - thank you.  Reassuring.  I didn't want to have to go out and get a new router or bang on the door of my ISP.  Dealing with them can be a bit frustrating until you get through to the right person.  As jond noted, no pro...

@frogman - Put your cursor over the album image to watch the You Tube progress line using the link below for the track, "Genesis". Around the 3 min 30 sec mark (after the bass solo starting at 2:10/2:12), a sax solo starts. My ear might not be tha...

F - Who is soloing at around 3:30 on Genesis?  and then (again?) at 0:30 in Chaos.  As I listen to this again, there are sections that remind me of Varese.  The connection to modern classical (well, modern as in 20th century) is definitely there. ...

Why is modern pop music today so terrible?
Hello Trans.  I know about The Wrecking crew, but not the entirety of the records they backed.  Have not yet watched the movie.  Need to rectify that.  More and more for me, it's the behind the scenes people...the studio musicians, engineers, prod...
