Which artists do you just not get?
frank195, Diane Shure was awful, but that's just my opinion and I'm realistic to know that "one man's treasure is another man's trash." I really dig Maynard, but this was a mistake. Anyway, my Dad liked this CD and he knows more about music than I...

Patricia Barber at the Green Mill in Chicago
Since I won't be getting to Chicago in the near future, if ever, I'll have to wait for her to tour in the New England area. I can't wait to see and hear her, as she has become one of my most favorite jazz musicians. I think I've collected most eve...

Damned if I Do and Damed if I Don't
Thank you to most of you for your great responses! I'll email a few of you privately to get your good solutions to a difficult problem. To Buscis2, this may be a New England thing, or at least in areas that have homes and styles that are truly ant... 
Vinyl manufacturers don't stand behind product?
My experience earlier last week was wonderful! I purchased a 180 gm audiophile double album and there were roughly 10 seconds of ear splitting pops on one side. I contacted Red Trumpet, where I purchased it, and received an email back form the Pre...

How Do I Start Playing With the Big Boys and Girls
Yes Eldragon, "music heaven" would be terrific to live with considering I'm a music educator and my high school band occasionally sounds like the opposite of music heaven. To answer Cellorover and Gregm, my music interests are very eclectic, from ...
