| Like a Rolling Stone - Looking for great live Dylan Hey Tom - yes, got your email. Replied to it a few minutes ago. THANKS. I'd have to agree with you...Dylan's definitely an "outlier". With respect to his "I don't believe you"...."You're a liar." he might not have cared if that guy was going to li... | |
| worst sounding great lps Paraneer - My experience matches yours on Katy Lied vinyl... "the blanket effect". Just ordered the 1999 re-mastered CD ($5 new w/shipping from Amazon). Supposedly it was re-mastered right with Fagen, Becker & Nicols all involved. We shall see... | |
| worst sounding great lps Hey Loomis. Hello again. That link didn't work (at least for me). Try this one (also interesting re Katy Lied).http://www.steelydan.com/dennys3.html | |

| Like a Rolling Stone - Looking for great live Dylan fwiw -Dylan's reply never to that charge really made sense to me. Though I guess you could try to adopt a Dylan mindset from back in the day and maybe it would gather some significance. In a bunch of the reading I was doing looking for that perfec... | |
| Voodoo Chile slight return as covered by SRVhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEJh2FFUUoUand performed by the master....(Props to jmcgrogan for being first - and better SQ. This one is live footage.)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxIQye772tM | |
| Seems like the best "upgrade" for tube amps.... Service people that worked on tube equipment (TVs) back in the day have suggested letting tubes warm up before putting signal through them. Supposedly this helps protect and extend tube life. I wait at least 20 minutes after turning tube amps on b... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Kelly Joe Phelps - "Brother Sinner & The Whale"...for them as got ears to hear.Johann Johannsson - "Englabörn" & "Virthulegu Forsetar". The initial and sophomore releases from this Icelandic composer. Modern classical. Englabörn was the sc... | |
| Recommendations for Arab and Mid-Eastern fusion. Ever hear anything by Tinariwen?...check out his/their "Emmaar". | |
| Warmish, good tracker & low noise for used vinyl? Thanks, Schubert. Good practical advice. What I enjoy about this hobby is the money you DON'T have to spend to enjoy good sound. Long ago I had (still do, actually) a Sumiko Blue Point. Coming from a Shure V-15 something or other back then, I was ... | |
| Warmish, good tracker & low noise for used vinyl? Thanks ALL...Schubert, appreciate your comments. Most recently leaning towards a Nag; maybe raise the ante a bit and go for the 200. Sonofjim...little risk of me spending $10K on a cart (that's actually kind of humorous if you knew me). While I tr... | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Hey there Loomis, glad you gave SP a listen. Yeah...they're probably not an A-list band though for me personally, I found their music melodic enough...kind of quirky and enjoyable, even. But, hey, horses for courses as they say. I will sample Hiss... | |
| Warmish, good tracker & low noise for used vinyl? Yogi - I've been doing a lot of reading at quite a number of sites so would have to search some to find exactly what I came across. Here's one example I just found in attempting to reply to you (not something I'd read previously; it does seem a bi... | |
| Warmish, good tracker & low noise for used vinyl? Thanks for the comments on Denon vs Grado, Theo. It's always about hitting the right balance between "musicality" and detail...not that the two have to be mutually exclusive. Appreciate your time. | |
| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report Andy Summers' "Earth and Sky". Track 7, Circus, cooks. |
