| James Blunt out of tune? On my version of the White Album, John sings 'Bungalow Bill'. | |
| "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". @moonwatcher + 1 - I've seen Jerry Garcia Band many times in the late 80's and early-mid 90's, and their version of 'The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down' has always been one of my favorites of their's. | |
| Immersive Audio and How to Achieve It 100%? I don't recall you asking me, but I guess I forgot. There are plenty of times I'd rather hear recorded music over live, and for many reasons. | |

| Most amusing album or song titles @larryi - did he put out two metal albums? I know he had one called 'In A Metal Mood'. | |
| Any Advice for those Listening to Youtube Reviewers? If you don't like the YouTube reviewers, start your own channel instead of complaining about people who did - I'm sure it would be far superior to the ones you don't like.... | |
| Why Do You Listen? A Poll Question NEITHER OF THE OPTIONS LISTED | |
| Any Advice for those Listening to Youtube Reviewers? I would guess that for many of these folks, YouTube videos are not their sole source of income.... | |
| Listening skills increase with low light? Which audio club is this in relation to? I've seen this question or ones very like it on more appropriate discussion groups. | |
| Any Advice for those Listening to Youtube Reviewers? I don't know about 'focusing' on gear prices, but I always hope the reviewer says how much something costs, because many of them do not. I wonder why people who complain about reviewers so much don't start their own YouTube channel? Show 'em how i... |
