| Music out there with good bass Anything by the Cowboy Junkies. They seem to elevate the bass in their recordings. May I suggest One Soul Now. It reminds me of a Cowboy Junkies CD with Neil Young on it although it's only the guitar player who sounds a hell of a lot like him. | |

| Your favorite prog rock music? ? Also the term progressive rock was coined in response to groups that started to write longer songs which allowed the musicians to play solo's on their instruments. Kind of like Rock n Roll's response to improvisation in jazz. | |
| Your favorite prog rock music? ? I think someone needs to define Progresive Rock. I always felt it was when other elements or styles of music were introduced to Rock n Roll. Example side two of King Crimson's Lizard or Moody Blues Days of Futures past. | |

| Overlooked R & R gems from the past Coming on the heels of two albums jam packed with FM fodder was Panorama by The Cars. This was more edgy and did not sell and was in the cut out bin by year end. It is my favorite Cars album more punk than the previous two and they went back to fo... | |

| Silicone for Tri-Planer damping trough I have an ET 2.5 and I don't use silicone in my damping trough anymore. I was told to use Mobil Synthetic oil 5w-30w viscosity and it works great,actually better than silicone and a hell of a lot cheaper and easier to find. | |
| Alternative air pumps for ET2 I use both a Wisa pump and the stock ET pump in tandem and run it into a homemade surge tank(a five gallon plastic gas can with aquarium stuffing inside). From there i use an inline filter to my 2.5. Sounds great and have had no problems with it. ... | |
