| Favorite cover? "Bumpin' on Sunset" - Brian Auger's Oblivion Express | |
| Favorite cover? +1 for elliotbnewcombjr's pick of "Famous Blue Raincoat" by Jennifer Warnes.I don't think Jennifer or that album got enough credit for reviving interest in Leonard Cohen's music. While there are a lot of great Leonard Cohen covers out there, my tw... | |
| Favorite cover? +1 on picks by bdp24 & gasnsteering. I forgot how good the Guess Who & Frigid Pink covers were.++1 on repeluso's pick of Baby It's You by Smith. That song should have been a huge hit. I always found it interesting that the Beatles stopped... | |
| Favorite cover? To me, Lou Reed falls into a category with Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan and Tom Waits in that some of the best versions of their songs end up being done by other artists. Some of my favorite Lou Reed / Velvet Underground covers are:EVAN DANDO & KI... | |

| Great musicians who should have been famous except.... My nomination for an underappreciated non-drummer is Greg Leisz, the extraordinary lap steel & pedal steel player. | |
| Great musicians who should have been famous except.... +1 for Hal Blaine, Jim Keltner, Steve Gadd and Vinnie Colaiuta.The drummer that I find really fascinating is Brian Blade (probably best known for his work with Emmylou Harris and Daniel Lanois). This guy is all over the drum kit; but, he does so i... | |
| The best looking speakers Just like you know a good speaker when you hear one, you'll recognize a good looking speaker when you see it. The trick is achieving both simultaneously, while staying within your budget. Best of luck in your search. | |
| Selling my dads top of the line system I agreed that Actaman has a very good idea. I hope someone will pursue it and make it a reality. | |
| Selling my dads top of the line system @Traveldonkey; based on your 7/26 post that you are "keeping some of the other pieces" of your Dad's system, it sounds to me like you've figured out a way to make this a "win - win" situation for you. I was wondering if your Dad had an Audiogon ac... | |
| Selling my dads top of the line system First off, I'm sorry for your loss. I can assure you that whoever buys your Dad's equipment will appreciate something that good. I'm sure you have a lot of your plate right now, so if you are pressed for time The Music Room (TMR Audio) might be yo... | |
| Tribute bands or bands/artists making a comeback..any favorites out there?? @moofoo; no I have not heard the new Alan Parsons LP. I've checked every music website that I know of, and no one has any song samples to listen to. That is both rare and strange; and, perhaps a bad omen. He played two songs from the new LP at the... |
