| Sexiest Pop Song Ever? Not hot, raw sexy but slow, smouldering sexy: 1. Lenny Welch - Since I Fell For You2. Rod Stewart - Tonight's The Night | |
| Your ONE all time favorite love song? I liked all of the Neil Young selections and the Lenny Welch (Since I Fell For You) is really outstanding. As far as love songs go, I think we are all influenced by the music that corresponded to some of our significant life events. For me, that t... | |
| What 'entrance' music? I asked my wife. She suggested "The Stripper" by the David Rose Orchestra. Whoops, gotta go. I hear hear car in the drive now!Steve | |
| Cantus by Stereophile nice? Pingpong,I bought the Christmas one (Comfort and Joy"). After reading about it in Stereophile I was really excited to hear it. Sorry, but I was dissapointed. I might change my mind if I heard some of their other works, but Comfort and Joy just doe... | |
| Your Top 5 Sax Players? 1. Johnny Hodges2. Gene Ammons3. Stanley Turrentine4. Stan Getz5. John Coltrane | |
| Folk/Rock choices that are well recorded Here is another vote for Tom Russell. When I describe his style to others I tell them to think "Harry Chapin with a Southwest motif". My nomination for his best sound and overall performance would be "Borderland". In fact, I burned a compilation o... | |
| Blue for newbie Alligator Records 20th anniversary double CD would be my recommendation. Lots of artists and different styles would let any newbie decide what they really like.Steve | |
| Best Jazz and Rock & Roll HDCD CDs I'm not sure how many Chris Isaak CD's are HDCD but "Baja Sessions" sure is and the sound quality is excellent! If anyone knows of any other of his works in HDCD I'd appreciate your post. Steve H | |
| Best live album you've ever heard? Eva Cassiday, Live At Blues Alley | |
| Good insturmental sax jazz recommindations I'm surprised no one has mentioned Johnny Hodges, Stanley Turentine and Gene Ammons. Although not as popular as some of the above mentioned artists, they are excellent performers. | |
| Music you would like to turn someone on to. Here are two very different suggestions:1. Up, Bustle and Out (a trip-hop group)2. Tom Russell (folk-rock)"Borderland" is one of my all-time favorites. | |
| Standing in the shadows of.... I have the audio CD and it sounds great! BTW, Stereophile magazine had it listed as one its "records to die for" in its latest annual (February, I think!) feature. | |
| What early 70's rock bands had violins? OK, so it's country rock: The Charlie Daniels Band! Who can forget "The Devil Went Down to Georgia"? | |
| Your favorite recent discovery "Borderland" by Tom Russell. Excellent folk-rock artist that I liken to a southwestern Harry Chapin. I took it to my local hi-end dealer to play and he now uses it to demo his Wilson Maxx's! | |
| What artist piqued your interest? OK, you asked for it, here's my story. I grew up listening to "top 40". Whatever they were playing on AM radio I was listening to. I even thought some up-tempo Perry Como sounded cool. In 4th grade I watched Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show and asked... |
