| Jazz for aficionados Here is an album I find quite soothing; "Sol Do Meio Dia" by Egberto Gismonti, I think I like side 2 best, but I like the rest as well; you find which side you like best.It seems that you have to be in a relaxed, receptive state of mind to enjoy t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Dave, when I get in better health, I will most certainly take you up on that offer. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Schubert, why don't you post something we can hear, it's not like you can't do it, you just quit before you did it.If you can read and write a sentence, you can do it. | |
| Jazz for aficionados To be honest folks, when I was into this kind of music (fusion), there were guys smoking skinny cigarettes with a peculiar aroma to my left and right, plus across the room even, and a lot of it wafted in my direction. After breathing such fumes, I... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Dave, you always seem to say the magic words for me "Soul Brothers", Ray Charles and Milt Jackson; 2 LP's without a loose cut on either of them. I'll just use your paragraph:After completing listening to the Hudson album, I retreated to "Soul Bro... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, thank you for putting everything into a new and fresh perspective. I'll listen to "Hudson" again and write a new post after I've put on another hat, the one I wore when "Fusion" was popular.Thanks for the post; especially Carmen McRae, N... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Here is an album that was rated album of the month in Stereophile and given a 4.5 star rating for performance and sonics.How do you rate it? Could you get back to me on that? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUaQimTc1yk | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? The last time I brought something of this nature up, someone said it was not proper subject matter for this forum, and had it removed.I am positive they are right; disregard anything I said. | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? Stfoth. why does that irritate some folks? I promise to go into great detail why I believe this is so. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Dave, I don't regret not buying new speakers, but I do regret not completing room treatment. I ran out of funds before the finish line; now I have the left volume control sky high, and the right volume control about in the middle, sounds perfect. | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? Maybe this has something to do with the fact that music has gone downhill in all genres https://thinkprogress.org/the-wealth-gap-between-rich-and-poor-is-the-widest-ever-recorded-6e9579966... | |
| Lesson Learned The biggest problem is there are few high end audio salons. When they were available in my area, I went to them often and always wanted to upgrade something, but it's been a long time since I heard anything other than what I got.As much as I like... | |
