| Modern day female jazz recommendations Karrin Allyson (my latest female obssession outside of my wife). Check out "Ballads: Remembering John Coltrane" for straight jazz songs, and "Imagina" for Brazil/Bossa Nova songs. Both are to die for. | |
| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Most people see the tubes and say, "cool, look at those relics!", as they lean over to touch them. Discouraged quickly by my growl and Sicilian "evil eye". Nearly all are uninterested in listening to my system. And the handful I can get to sit sti... | |
| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Nilthepill - Cool! Sounds like a terrific compliment to both your system and your father. :^) | |
| The best acoustic guitar recordings?? Mark Selby, "and the horse he rode in on". Terrific music played on his '74 Mossman, and well recorded from inside his living room. Heard Mark and his beautiful wife Tia do some of these cuts live at a friend's home. Listening to him playing, "A W... | |

| Frank Zappa? For me, I only like Hot Rats, though not sure if I ever heard Joe's Garage. I do also like Shut Up and Play Yer Guitar, but don't consider that a real release, more of a novelty. But a darned good one. | |

| Best beer Sierra Nevada Hoptimum satisfies greatly during this scorching summer. |
