| My opinion; Don't feed the troll | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @shutupuface Nah, I don’t have a problem with differing opinions at all, as long as they’re actually based on intelligent thought rather than generalized dismissals of a music form that doesn’t conform to a predisposed definition. I throw out the ... | |
| How much does a DAC do the more expensive it is? @oddiofyl What else could you tell me about the Lab12? I've been intrigued by their products for a while. | |
| Female vocalist recommendations @blackbag20 haha. Imagine if the OP took that advice not knowing who geddy is! I would pay to see the reaction. | |
| Why do we stop listening to new music as we get older? @kingsleuy Nice post! I guess because old music or even new music that sounds like older music fits into an impression created by the music that shaped us as we grew up and matured. "new" stuff is going to be different; thus, we’re going to re... | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @charles7 really? Is this based on careful social study or on what you want to believe? Or maybe on your own experience? I mean, I could say the same thing about Boomer rock. @davedead Yes, Jerry was an iconic and inspiring soul (though I always ... | |

| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @davedead +1 @audiovideonirvana no problem. and no chance of me acting adolescent at all anytime I can weave a "That's what she said" into a conversation... | |
| Female vocalist recommendations @curtisvill +1 on Dominque Fils-Aime. beautiful voice and arresting songwriting. @kb54 That Kathleen Edwards title should have garnered way more attention than it did when it was released. | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @davedead It is what it is. And as a Deadhead myself, I can call out generational blindness when I see it. | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" @audiovideonirvana Wow. That really added to the sophistication level of the conversation. Sorry to be snarky, but adolescent quips like that don't strengthen your argument much @shutupuface Yes, rap does fit those criteria. It’s not just a voic... | |
| Female vocalist recommendations @roxy54 thanks for the October project suggestion. I never heard of them before, which kind of surprises me, but they’re right up my alley. Kind of remind me of a cross between All About Eve and Fairport convention | |
| Female vocalist recommendations Erin Bode, Over and Over Julie London Hank Dogs, Bareback Cassandra Wilson, New Moon Daughter And the absolutely beautiful Anne Hills. Start with Angle of the Light | |
| Ray Charles - "Rap is not music" And anapestic beats are in everything including Shel Silverstein, Shakespeare, and KRS-1. I'll take those guys over an obscure 20th century holistic physician. |
