| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Stringeen, I only listened to Class "A" in emporiums that had room treatment up the "Ying Yang", and I was never disappointed. However I have listened to Class "A" rigs in homes that did not deliver Class "A" sound, I attributed that to the inexp... | |
| Jazz for aficionados The closer it gets to Christmas, the more I get into the spirit. It's the music that makes this holiday more than any other. For me, the artist that combines "jazz" and Christmas better than any other is "Vince Guaraldi".These days there is a lo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you have mentioned the unwritten rules many times, but now you don't know them; sorry, I can't help you.I posted this at 2:36 PM today in order to change the subject, but nobody noticed it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVB18... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, I don't know anything about ballet, but from what I can gather "Swan Lake" doesn't have a lot of latitude for variation, and there are certain elements that constitute a perfect "Swan Lake". Although there are no written rules for jaz... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, "Moanin" is what it is, and that will never change, although there are many ways to reach the end result of what the tune is about, or just play it any way the artist wants to, but the original intention of the tune will never change. ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, why don't you just write my posts for me? Why is it that no one misinterprets every word I write like you? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you can appreciate this; I've been hanging with the analogers to pick up some tips on cartridge installation, and for sure I went to the right place. They were also discussing 20K tone arms and special records, but when they got to music; if... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, I'm glad to hear you defending your unique view of this music. "Because I’m not as grounded in jazz as you more seasoned aficionados, I’m also not married to a particular style or mode of interpretation applied to a given composition. ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you must be thinking about Isis and Osiris; this religious sense is a long way from that.I feel music, when you see notes on a piece of sheet paper. I can think of two dozen different way I've heard "Moanin" but never like that; maybe yo... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Dave, the "sound stage" is really taking shape in my room; for the first time, it's spread across the front of the room like it's supposed to be; not favoring the left or right side.Bwaslo, I've got a really ugly temporary absorption panel in the ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I'm glad you understood my comments which were in no way intended to offend Ghosthouse.It seems Frogman has discovered a new (for me) McCoy Tyner, and that certainly makes my day.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, in some ways, jazz is almost like a religion, especially the standards. Since I'm one of the leading proponents of this faith, I consider it sacrilegious when an artist defiles one of the sacred tunes by playing it all wrong to the ex... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Errol Garner, from "Concert By The Sea"; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEN8pbFDMcE&list=PLFNXF9a5upesFDucvjZdBFQ1vXxHi9Xv6 | |
| Jazz for aficionados I saw the play, which was spectacular, and I also have the album which I enjoy because it brings back memories of the play, but I don,t see how you can compare an album, to a good seat, and all the live ambiance of a Broadway Play? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Here is a really nice album all the way through, but I'm sure you already have it; in case you don't, get it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGivttfAGlU&list=PL872DDBDD38965152Enjoy the music. |
