| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you're right. | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is a little bit different; those posts concerning Rok's post, were meant "exclusively" for Rok; that's because I know what he's talking about, and there is no disagreement. If this is "off topic", it's because this topic is more important. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I finally got around to looking at, or should I say completing "One Night With Blue Note". I found it amazing how all those musicians put on such outstanding performances as though it was just another day at the office; they made it look so easy.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Our president keeps telling us the media is the biggest liar on the planet"; While that's true, I'm wandering how long is it going to take for him to switch and become part of the lie, just like the last president; can you say "Oligarchs rule". | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, and Rok, when I was in LA, I heard music at the clubs that was comparable to the best of Blue Note, by musicians unknown to me. I attributed this to the fact that musicians do not have to leave LA in order to make a living. Although I w... | |
| Recording quality... "Shadowfax" on the Windham Hill Record label; this recording was made on a modified MCI JH 16 recorder at 30 inches per second, and mixed to a Studer Mark III half-inch two track recorder, using no noise reduction, limiting or compression. h... | |
| Jazz for aficionados House party is definitely one of the best jams ever; I believe I could make a hit record with the lineup like he had on that one. Good times forever! Keep em comin. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Jafant, I pretty much agree with the article and Frogman, but I think you are asking the question on an intensely personal level, and I say "It's a trumpet man, quit pussyfooting around and blow the thing".If I could ask Chet a Question, it would ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Race and jazz: Art Pepper overheard some jive turkeys putting him down because he was white, and since he had heard that the word on the street was the ultimate word, he assumed this was it. While this is true, it's the word on the streets of New ... | |
| Old Amp vs. New Amp I think "newbees" should only buy "new" equipment they can afford. It takes experience to even know what's wrong; why start out taking that chance? Parasound use to be an affordable name that offered good gear. Just because I can no longer affo... | |
| Old Amp vs. New Amp Petrela, I bought two of those and a drop of water can fry one of those because the top is used for ventilation, and a drop of water caused one of mine to fry.The other one is combined with the PV-10A, and it sounds good; primarily because SS mate... | |
| Old Amp vs. New Amp Jond, what you say is true "most" of the time. My pre-amp needs a transformer; that's something that never goes out on most gear. | |
| Old Amp vs. New Amp Petrela, I agree, provided you avoid SS unless you can replace the electrolytic caps yourself, and make sure they are available. Old "tube" equipment might be the best buy, but when you take into consideration high priced repair, that might not b... | |
| Old Amp vs. New Amp Jafant, I am glad you asked what I have, and not what I had. CJ "Was" my favorite high end name, I own a PV-10, and a PV-12.The PV-10A is up and running, it's probably the best buy in all of the high end. The PV-12 needs repair, but it wont get ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I find it amazing how the lyrics to so many songs bring the reality of our existence into sharp focus, like a photographs taken at different times in our life. It's also interesting how so many others share the same emotions that the song brings ... |
