| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @immatthewj I don't ask the Mods to delete posts. You and anyone else can say whatever you like about be. I am extremely right wing so I don't understand the Snowflake moniker. For some reason I've always called the Dire Straits album "Sultan's ... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @immatthewj Steely Dan. I don't know what possessed me to buy AJA on SACD from MD, but a total waste of $30. Homogenous. I don't like them any more now than I did about 50 years ago ... | |
| Rick Derringer R.I.P @tablejockey I bought the 45 in ’74 immediately upon release and that was the story in the music press at the time. About 20 years before the internet became commonplace. | |
| Rick Derringer R.I.P @tablejockey You are correct but "Ricky Don't Lose That Number" is about Derringer. Becker and Fagan went to meet him but couldn't convince him to team up with them at the time. | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Yeah, draft dodging Brucie should have done a bit more research because Uncle Sam wasn't sending him to kill the yellow man because the Viet Cong were light brown to dark brown skinned (if they were working in the sun in the rice paddies).Lots of ... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @daniel25 You have absolutely no idea how ignorant you are. As they say "ignorance is bliss and to be retarded is sublime". | |
| transferring music to SSD @whart I mentioned that I stood to be corrected but I wasn't that far off and my information was received quite a while ago from a Brit in the music biz. Anyway, the way I see it is we all got shafted. I remember in the '70s there was loads of... | |
| Rick Derringer R.I.P Ricky Don't Lose That Number! | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @mylogic Agree with you on Bono. He also now appears to have actually morphed into a Robin Williams look-alike. Check him out…...has Bono now become a recording artist you just can’t look at? Read the Daily Mail, The Edge and a few others a... | |
| Buyer Beware @devinplombier What I would add is it's all about synergy. You need to get your system in synergy before adding expensive cables. Get your dealer to give you cables on a 30 day loan, a few days is not enough. (I'll get hammered for this but I've... | |
| Voltage conversion of Accuphase A-300 The issue is not just the voltage but also the frequency (Hz). Apparently half of Japan runs on 50Hz and the other half on 60Hz, I stand to be corrected. It maybe easier to get an audiophile step-up transformer, there are many available because ... | |
| Buyer Beware @kennyc @devinplombier I don't believe anyone is putting anyone else down but the naysayers are not just unique to the audiophile scene, they are in the wine, exotic car, art etc. scenes. I can't afford to pay $100M for a Francis Bacon painting... | |
| transferring music to SSD Iirc copyright was only 25 years then in the 80's? The music industry decided without any opposition to change it to 50 years. It may be indefinate by now. The music industry does what the hell it likes. Drugs still have a fairly short copyright... | |
| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? @immatthewj Never expected the discussion to achieve this level of interest. Idle hands do the devil’s work. The only reason you’re back here is to start an arguement and bring in your kiddie fiddling mate Uncle Wilbur, who is a Ponce the same... | |
| Rolling Stones - Hackney Diamonds @audi-owe +1000 I bought the Blu-Ray Audio/CD version and as dyed in the wool Stones fan it's bloody awful. Previouly, Dirty Work was the worst but this takes the biscuit. Dross, dross, dross. Jagger knows how to make really great solo albums w... |
