| Jazz for aficionados I don't know what jazz is, but I know it when I hear it, I also know you can not learn it in anybody's school; not even the best in the country.My kind of jazz began with "Be Bop"; that's what "Bird," Dizz, Monk and a few other musicians worked on... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, this is "jazz Jazz" that's too cool for words; "Ham Hock Blues"; now you know with a title like that, this is the real deal, I know Rok, can tell us all about dem ham hock blues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yosa8uF6myUP... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Dave, installing a cartridge is always an adventure; little tiny wires, and big fat clumsy fingers, handling something as fragile as a toothpick, and costing 1K; any slip can break that flimsier than a toothpick cantilever; that's when I'm sweatin... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, I've got those albums; it may take awhile for me to find them, but I'll get on it."jazz jazz" is just like any other genre of music; some good, and some not so good, choose the best and leave the rest.I'll see what I can find,and in th... | |
| Jazz for aficionados My last post was in "English"; that's my native tongue, what was it that you didn't understand?My suggestion to you, is to refrain from communicating with me about anything in any fashion, and I will reciprocate, that way I'm sure we will get along. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you hit the nail dead on the head; this is the real deal, and it probably sounds strange to those who didn't respond, but we have to overlook that; must be a bunch of newbees. ( I betcha that got their attention)Enough is enough; I tried it a... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. YO guys! I'm installing a cartridge; I would rather get bit in the but by a snaggletooth gorilla than install a cartridge; try turning a curve into a straight line, it ain't easy.After experimenting with the minute amount of room treatment I got, ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados You did it again; you neglected to comment on a post that was ages ago, while you're bringing in a new element of objection on this current post.That tune was most significant for a real jazz "aficionado", and the title of the tune was most signif... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I just realized, you have a problem with accepting the fact that we are uniquely different individuals, and none us are going to change; or maybe it would be OK if we changed into "Frogman Clones". One example of that is your sensitivity... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, the beauty of this thread is that we are all uniquely different individuals; I don't expect that to change. Since we all have sizable collections, it's apparent we all enjoy music to the highest degree.In regard to "condescending" ; I o... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Dave, the stain and finish for the table is drying, and I'll start on the room treatment absorbers tomorrow. Just by experimenting with what I already have, I can see the image move from right to left.This high ceiling with large beams running ac... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. Jafant, Audible Illusions Pre, and PrimaLuna Mono blocks amp; I made my own interconnect from wire that is no longer available. Speaker cable is Siltech for midrange speaker, silver and copper for tweeter, and a large wire of fine stranded copper... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is the second, or third time I posted Gene Ammons, and no response; there is the implication that "communications" be two way; other wise we only have an "attempt" at communicating. In regard to the "music critic" type of response; it might b... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I'm with you Rok; I listen to music for enjoyment, not to break it down like dissecting a frog in biology (pun unintended). Them super "aficionados" got all over me about Enigma, but failed to comment on "Swinging For Benny" which is a real Gem, ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I appreciate your very informative post. I never approached music from an academic point of view, it has always been from an emotional, or resonant stance; meaning if the music is in harmony with my inner vibes we, (me and the music) go ... |
