| Odd rock trivia-Who knew? Delaney & Bonnie are the common element to Dave Mason and Eric Clapton/Derek & the Dominos. | |
| Bad news for audiophiles? The retail cost of a bottle of wine is closely tied to the market value of real estate where the wine is produced. Expensive vineyards produce expensive wines. | |
| And Clapton Didn't Even Know Americana is a broad category and I would include in addition to Little Feat, Los Lobos, Nelville Brothers and The Blasters (Dave Alvin). You could also include the Mothers Of Invention, but that might be a pushing to boundary.The Band also had a ... | |
| Balanced or fully SS pre with tone controls There back in business. | |
| Industrial grade steel storage rack as audio rack? I've reconsidered. Definitely don't do it. Instead try putting together a "custom" Ikea Lack equipment rack. The Lack side table retails for $13 and you'll need 2 or 3. Here's a link to images of what people have done with them as equipment racks.... | |
| And Clapton Didn't Even Know Frogman, thanks for the video (with a clickable link). A great watch and it has made me re-evaluate "We're Going Wrong". One thing that was nice in the video was how many references there were to Bruce's vocal talents. Like B.B. King, Bruce is pri... | |
| Industrial grade steel storage rack as audio rack? What turntable are you using and what isolation platform will it rest on?Racks like this generally aren't that great for audio, but at that price it might be workable. | |

| And Clapton Didn't Even Know We may never know exactly what Bruce truly meant with his Ornette Coleman quip, but I immediately saw the connection when I read it. I thought I knew Cream, but the quote completely blew my mind! And it's not as if they are playing Ornette, but th... | |
| And Clapton Didn't Even Know Love the Linn analogy. Very inventive, but it ultimately falls short. Linn was a wonderful proponent of analog playback and was very influential, but direct drive (Technics) and non-suspended belt drive (Rega) turntables have dominated the market.... | |
| And Clapton Didn't Even Know So "Music From Big Pink" saved rock? Other releases of 1968 include: - White Light/White Heat - Astral Weeks - Bookends - The White Album - Beggar's Banquet - Village Green Preservation Society - Sweetheart Of the Rodeo - We're Only In It For the ... | |
| And Clapton Didn't Even Know The Ornette Coleman band reference makes sense to me when listening to the simultaneous soloing on many of the Cream live tracks. Given Baker and Bruce's jazz backgrounds I would imagine that they were familiar with Coleman's work, whereas Clapton... | |
| Has Linn Gone Crazy? They Stopped Making Pre-Amps Linn changed quite awhile ago when they opened their retail outlets. Essentially what they are trying to do is offer great sounding lifestyle audio systems. As such it's not that different than Meridian, B&O, Goldmund or some products from Son... | |
| opinions The Sansui AU series is highly regarded for its sonics and build quality. They are not completely neutral sounding, more pleasant sounding than explicit, but they do provide long-term musical satisfaction when matched with sympathetic loudspeakers... | |
