| You get to have 3 pieces: 2 speakers and 1 piece of electronics + Turntable... I would have a VAC integrated amp, Giya G2 speakers, and Rega RP 10 turntable; does this meet your requirements? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, "Wicki" has almost nothing on Eunice Waymon; she's a person, Nina Simone is a name; you will either have to buy the book or go to the library in order to find out who "Eunice Waymon" was, "google" can not help you. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, if you did not want to incite a riot, why didn't you respond to mary-jo's post first? When are you going to respond to her post? | |

| Jazz for aficionados Eunice Waymon spent her entire life practicing and studying to become a concert pianist. She was playing at a bar in order to earn money for classical piano lessons when she was told she had to sing.I can hear all those hours she spent practicing... | |
| Jazz for aficionados When one is rolling in the mud it's difficult to tell who the low life is.Nothing in your post pertains to the subject of Nina Simone's piano playing.I stated "fake snobery" because it was an attempt at humor, but in the future you can count on me... | |
| Just an observation here, but???????? Tom, you have left out too many specifics and specifications for your post to be valid.How many reels did you own? I have owned Akai, Teac, Technics, and Otari.The reel does not compete with the turntable, it is used to make vinyl more enjoyable ... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I hope you can overlook the fake snobbery in my last post. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you are a professional musician, and you have exhibited your knowledge of music, time, and time again, but you are not a "Connoisseur" of the very best jazz; that requires taste comparable to the best wine stewards.When Nina Simone goes d... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Eunice Waymon was hired at a cocktail lounge to play the piano; when she was told she had to sing for her supper, she became "Nina Simone"; she never had any intention of becoming a vocalist.Pryso, and Frogman, your evaluations, and comparisons ar... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I didn't mean her piano throughout her career, but in the beginning when in her mind, she was more of a pianist than a vocalist.After it was determined that the piano alone would not pay the bills, it wasn't necessary to play at the same level she... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "nor the piano skills of Evans, Kelly, Barron, Wyands, or many other great piano players. To be honest you probably made a valid observation that I never did."She would have to be exclusively a pianist to make the comparison you made because there... |
