| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report FWIW on this Elton John topic. Here's a great review posted on Amazon July 15 2013 by one, "Jacktavish" for the Honky Chateau remaster. "Forget Elton John's Greatest Hits part one. Just buy Madman Across the Water, Tumbleweed Connection, & ... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report @reubent Hello there. Wow...8 Track tape. Sounds like we might be contemporaries, or at least near-contemporaries, age-wise. I certainly hope you enjoy those Elton John LPs you picked up. Can’t speak to Captain Fantastic. Never owned or listened t... | |

| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Hello again N. Found a remastered version of Tumbleweed on Tidal. Last track was Madman Across the Water. Not entirely sure it's the same version as you have but was impressed with the sonics from the get go AND that version of Madman is very v... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Loomis - That is the Ivy I had in mind. I musta been living under a rock. Ivy’s "Long Distance" goes back to 2000! Yet they’re a relatively new "discovery" for me (last couple of years, anyway) by way of hearing "Edge of the Ocean" on Pandora. Dun... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report N - Haven't heard the remastered version you refer to but music-wise, his self-titled along with Tumbleweed & Madman are favorites of mine. Some of his best work (not to mention Bernie Taupin's). Played Tumbleweed quite a few times back in t... | |
| List of artists that have never lost quality throughout entire career "4. Tom Waits. Many would criticize Tom for not singing his own voice, but I'm amused the way he does it with spirit of Louis Armstrong! Yes indeed with spirit instead of just imitating. Embracing the spirit of inspired artist is different and Tom... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @loomisjohnson Got Bowery Electric's Lushlife running. I like it a LOT. Reminds me a little of Massive Attack. Crossed with Ivy, if you know them. | |

| To Stream ... Just to clarify my comments...The Aries Mini can run Tidal as well as Spotify (along with a number of other "sources"). While Tidal's content is growing, at least in terms of music I like, I still find myself quite frequently resorting to Spotif... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 vs. Auralic Aries Mini @audiofreak32 Sorry but I must disagree. The Mini has a Sabre DAC. See info at link here...http://www.audiostream.com/content/auralic-aries-mini#ByVpvErih8LxZ5hx.97 | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Loomis - great. Glad you enjoyed Arbouretum. Sometimes Pitchfork's record reviews are annoying but, while they aren't besotted fans, the ones I read about Arbouretum are insightful, I thought...even though I didn't agree with every word. I will... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @loomisjohnson regarding Artbouretum - Hoping "interesting disc" translates to, "I liked it". I didn't...leastways not initially. Took repeated listening (something kept drawng me back) before I finally sorta "got it", as happens sometimes. Ha... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Hello N - I enjoyed that Mike Griffin. Great sonics and his playing...nice and clean. Not too many needless notes. Some excellent sparkling piano soloing right before the 5 minute mark. Kinda formulaic blues (ain’t it all?) but well done. Never he... | |
| Tune of the Day Strand of Oak, "The Rest of It". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Fdp1D-1p34&ab_channel=WFUVPublicRadioDon’t ask why.(can’t be accused of using auto tune though)...and for a chaser:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbnPS73DyOM&ab_channel=Wil... |
