Sensuality is such a rare quality I couldn't even find an adequate definition. Although we know it when we see, hear, or feel that state of being, words can't quite express it; music, however is much better at expressing "sensuality". "She is Mich...

Frogman, I found a clip that you will find very interesting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH17-x_bQEQEnjoy the music.

Frogman was the last person to submit music on this "music" forum, he submitted "Chucho Valdes". Now I know why that name confuses me; his father was Bebo Valdes, jazz ran in the blood of the Valdes family.Before that, I posted "Ernesto Lecuona", ...

"Aficionados", you're conflating "RAP" with social commentary. "The Last Poets" was social commentary, Gil Scott-Heron would turn over in his grave if you called him a "Rapper". Is poetry "RAP"? Not all words spoken in rhyme and rythm are "RAP".It...

Rok, how about this religion; it's the same in Africa, Brazil, Haiti, or New Orleans, we talking about drums on fire, this is Babatunde Olatunji. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWeDev0QWLcEnjoy the music.

Rok, you asked me what kind of music I liked besides jazz, well occasionally I get religion and want to go to Saturday Night Church; this is what it's all about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9W3PcsjFBoEnjoy the music.

Frogman, "Bengal And Beyond", including the sax works for me. Afro Cuban is just another one of the many fusions that work with jazz. On this tune I like the jazzy vocalizing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUFqUur7bZgNow let us compare "Bengal An... 
Which High Res releases are worth buying?
I have, and I wrote a thread about it that I posted on HD Downloads compared to analog that's posted on the analog forum. It was the best download so far.Enjoy the music. 
Rush downloads from HDTracks
My bad. 
How to remove harshness from my digital gear
Even with an analog front end, there is such a thing as a harsh cartridge. Analog or digital, start at the very source of the sound and go from there by isolating and substituting until you have identified the harsh contribution to your sound.Enjo...
