Ghosthouse, no, it hasn't been done, and Frogman would be the person who could shed light on the subject.During the time I was in close contact with a jazz musician in 69, he never rehearsed or held rehearsals. The first set I witnessed; him, and... 
My final table , hopefully !
Terry9, while I'm familiar with the different sounds of cartridges in the same price range, I'm not familiar with the different sounds of turntables in the same price range. Since you seem to have had a number of tables, could you comment on the ...

Alex, I've liked Flamenco since childhood, when the only time I heard it was in a bullfighting movie set in spain, or a cowboy movie in Mexico.Rok, insisted on "classical jazz" because of the title of the thread, and that's how I got in the habit ...

Frogman, when I'm in a "Flamenco" mood, here's another guitarist I go to along with Paco. Otmar Liebart has a kind of forlorn sound sometimes, like way out in the middle of nowhere, but he is most certainly different from any guitarist I can thin...

Saki, I'm going to give you one of the strangest reasons for upgrading a cartridge. The man who was responsible for the quality of my favorite cartridge, died not too long ago. That's why I'm upgrading my cartridge.It wont be long, and all the c...

Frogman, here is a sax man that I think we over looked; I like this, but you can probably find something better.            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdgB_L0_II4            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IZb8AJQ7acEnjoy the music.

Yes Ghosthouse, Tina Brooks is a story even sadder than most sad stories; too sad to comment on, on such a beautiful day where I am.I went to the grocery store today, and everyone was smiling and helpful; when that happens to you, you know you've ...

I'm enjoying Tina Brooks and Freddie Hubbard, "Gypsie Blue" mightely.          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Sesame_(Freddie_Hubbard_album)Sometime ago I was accused of being old fashioned. I fought long and hard to ward that off; now I say ...

Ghosthouse, I wasn't going to respond to that post, because I have nothing significant to say in regard to Michael Jackson; as it is, I'm responding to your post to let you know that you have company; just not our bag, or maybe we're too old, or b...

I just realized I haven't submitted any music in awhile, here's something for you; a comparison between the old and the new;        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0II1WOTyowo        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5EwGijmqKc        https://www.y...

Saki70, you're progressing very nicely;  you're right about the Rega, if you're not a "handy man" with upgrades, leave it be.I will be most curious about the cartridge; sorry I can't make any suggestions, I like different music, and that's the key...

BTW Frogman, that inference to Freddy Hubbard sounding "Boppish" was in no way bad, it was good, as in "Bird" be-boppish. Any inference to somebody sounding like "Bird" in any kind of way is nothing but the best. 
Jazz for aficionados
Frogman, Freddie Hubbard sounded awfully "Boppish" to me, and Junior Cook sunded more like "Bird" or Trane than Joe Henderson to me. That could be because I don't have the same records by Joe Henderson as you. The drummer sounded like Elvin Jone...
