Most recordings you own by a single artist, group, or composer
Just a shout-out to all of you guys who are donating your CDs to the thrift stores, or blowing them out at your garage sales. Like the LP folks that preceded you, I, and several of my friends, thank you from the bottom of our ever-lovin' hearts. :...

tpreaves ...Thanks for the heads up on Boxcar Willie. Been playing his stuff on Spotify. Love it. Great music to follow along with on the harmonica. Good old down-home country music. Two thumbs up.Frank

glupson ...How about the CD burning police? Did you forget about them? And then about looking over my shoulder while driving ... I was always a very coordinated and athletic type of person who could chew gum and drive at the same time. Hey man, be...

If we’re counting single artists appearing with other groups, Ray Brown would be up there in my collection. Other than that, the Dave Brubeck section is starting to crowd out the Chet Baker and Cannonball Adderley section. In the classical closet,...

Up against The Wall, mother.....OOPS....never mind!    Just a flashback, to an encounter w/CHP, on I-5. Yes, being raised as a teenager in the 1950s Orwellian police state of Venice, California, I can truly relate. Frank

glupson ...  Who was driving while two of you were looking over your right shoulders? I was, but all was okay because we were listening to my illegally burned copy of The Wall. Call the police.Frank

Synergistic Research HFT's
^^^ When I first installed the ten-pack of HFT in my room, I had my friend Robert over for a listen. I didn't tell him what I had done and asked him what he thought. Robert hears like a bat, and upon initial listening, he about fell over. The impr...

+1 for amg56 ...You've reminded me of a trip I took up the coast to Santa Barbara one day with a friend to hunt down a Peerless transformer that was advertised for sale. My friend built his own amps and he wanted the transformer for an amp project... 
The Forest for the Trees
Yes, this hobby is or should be about the music. When I was a kid in junior high, I used to listen to my little tube radio under the covers at night so I wouldn’t disturb the rest of the family. I especially loved the Rythem and Blues station that...

I've learned to appreciate good opera. Every time I listen to DSOTM or The Wall, it is like listening to great rock opera. I'm not much of a psychedelic rock fan, much preferring good jazz, but the Pink Floyd band really gets to me. Their music ha...

Miller ...After your Pink Floyd post, I accessed "The Wall" via Spotify and listened to it through my newly PPT Total Contact pasted Audioengine A2+ speakers. Having a compromised respiratory system, I almost passed out listening to "Run Like Hell...
