| AT-ART9XI Cartridge - Reduced Compliance Thank you all. The wisdom shared here is invaluable.I started subscribing to The Absolute Sound at Vol. 6 (mid 70s?) because, having grown up in school orchestras and knowing how instruments sounded, I recognized the writers' abilities to express... | |
| AT-ART9XI Cartridge - Reduced Compliance avanti, thanks very much for the excellent A/B/C comparison video by Lp Gear. As much as I've been reading about various cartridges, I was unaware of these videos - let alone one that gives us the three ART9 models. Very helpful. The SME V's st... | |
| Jazz for aficionados OK, I confess. I own a 1951 Olds 98 4-door sedan. It's a physical connection with a gone by era I love. A cruise in the 98 can't be replicated in this "digital is everything" era.And the AM tube radio still pulls in stations from all over the U... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10: I saw McCoy Tyner probably 8-10 times. I was never more than 20 feet away, and I always set myself up where I could see the keyboard. Amazing journey - every time. And his bassist, Avery Sharpe, was (and is) a genius.When you hear and fe... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Lots of catching up to do. First, I urge you to take heed to tostadosunidos' recommendation: any of the Ella Fitzgerald/Joe Pass duets.My favorite is "Take Love Easy." No idea how many evenings in the last 40 years I've put this on, closed my ey... | |

| Jazz for aficionados @mary_jo <<In this light, old recordings seem more real and more attractive to folks who appreciate live recording and therefore music with certain "faults"... >>Absolutely. Rudy van Gelder enriched my musical world like no other.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yusef Lateef "Live at Pep's." Go global. Lateef was the best at melding the music of the far east with American jazz and blues. It doesn't get much better than this. | |
| Jazz for aficionados @alexatpos Well said. I am certainly a relative newbie here, so your words are well taken.Back to Jazz!It had been awhile, but I pulled out the Jimmy Cobb Quartet, "Cobb's Corner," a few nights ago. Really hit the spot. Chesky Records. | |
| Jazz for aficionados @nsp Ideally, this would be a forum to discuss jazz and jazz only. But would you remain silent when someone posts this stuff? I can't, and no one who gets jazz should either.<<Slavery was the best thing that ever happened to Black folks.(g... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? @spiritofradio<< Jean-Pierre RampalSuite for Flute and Jazz PianoClaude Bolling >>Sweet - soooo many hours spent listening to this album way back when. | |
