| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report jafant - Thanks for the feedback.Hmmm...I'm certainly a bit curious about this latest SPLHCB release. Dunno though. I go through periods of heavy listening to the Beatles but it might be years in between...certainly months. Growing up with the... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O - I liked best of all that 3rd video w/Dakota Staton scatting. If you want to put up a good example of West Coast jazz, I will check it out. I recall some discussion about that going back a good few months (or more). Did not follow it then. ... | |
| Gungnir sound before and after multi-bit upgrade? "...[a] bigger more powerful presentation, with deeper wider sound stage, and with more foot tapping bounce to the music."@georgehifi - I think that quote pretty much nails it as far as my perception of the Gungnir post-multibit. Thanks for the c... | |
| Gungnir sound before and after multi-bit upgrade? UpdateReceived the Gungnir with multi bit upgrade today. Going on 7 hours since putting it back in the system. On first getting the Gungnir installed, put Peter Gabriel’s "So" (CD ripped as ALAC file to external hard drive) on repeat from the Arie... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse - Yeah Three Quartets just worked for me. I read Corea had set out to use (17/18th century?) string quartets as the model/template/pattern...what's the right word?? for the music he would compose. I think there's a certain discipline... | |
| Jazz for aficionados PPS - part 2 on the Curtis Fuller, O. Found the entire Blues-ette on Tidal. TF plays a really nice solo starting at 0:50 and running to about 2:13 on Undecided. You can learn all the technical chops in the world. Not sure anybody can teach "good t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @orpheus10 Okay - I am playing your Dakota Staton tracks. Think you got a duplicate in there. 2 of Green Dolphin Street. Recorded NYC 1960... Woulda been 8 years old. Every morning up for school, my pop getting ready to leave for work. Old gray pl... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report @jafant Hey there 'j'...So how good is the SQ on it? BTW - it's okay to reply to queries and engage in DIALOG! :-) | |
| Jazz for aficionados "This is a very narrow, prejudiced, selfrighteous view that borders nearly on hate speech...." .Hate speech? Are you KIDDING me?! clearthink - Get a grip. I have no problem at all with you taking issue with Schubert’s O-pinion about the virtue of ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Interesting comments, Schubert. Well said.Haha, O. Hadn't listened to Waves in a good long while. Track 1? Per Ulv | |
| Jazz for aficionados "On the real side, in regard to the music we are about, when we reach a serious consensus, that's when it's time to study all the details carefully; by that, I mean to search for albums created by the artists who created that one; without the star... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Thanks for the Terje Rypdal/Per Ulv recommendation, Orpheus. I’ll have to check it out. Did not see a recent link to it. The title sounds familiar like I might have heard it at some point. I do have a couple of TR recordings..."Waves" in vinyl fro... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Orpheus - certainly agree with your "appreciation" of Blue Train, as you have written here and elsewhere on A’gon. That title track alone packs an album’s worth of musical intensity into less than 11 minutes. In some ways it strikes me as, "everyt... | |
| Brightest but shortest artistic bursts in the sky Actually, Nick Drake was mentioned back on 4/29. Certainly deserving of inclusion, regardless. | |
