| End of the World system 20 miles through uncleared path. 40 miles round trip. I’d have to clear a path on the way there, so I could get back, presumably with boxes in my hands or a cart I build. Now that I have all the facts, I think I won’t make the trip. | |
| Jazz for someone who doesn't like jazz. Some good advice here, but N80 I’ll go contrary to some of it. If you’re new to Jazz skip the Ken Burns series, at least for a while. The only thing you need to know from that whole series is the Wynton Marsalis quip about Jazz “it doesn’t come to... | |

| USB cable from external HD to Oppo BDP 103 I have a similar configuration—I stream WAV files from an external hard drive to my Bryston BDP, or, when I want a little different flavor, to an Oppo 105. I’ve wondered the exact same question: does the cable from the hard drive feeding into the ... | |
| Lyle Mays has passed away Lyle was the perfect counterpoint to Pat. RIP Lyle | |

Coltrane’s spirit is all up in Ernie’s sound, yet Ernie’s style is all his own (an Ernie Watts solo, like a Tom Harrell solo, is a beautiful thing). So one d... | |
| The Beatles Anniversary issues question ..... George wrote it? Are you sure about that? | |

| Damn! My Foolish Heart--I keep coming back to this tune. John McLaughlin’s solo acoustic guitar version of My Foolish Heart on the Thieves And Poets album is very well done. | |
