| Top 5 Rock n Roll Vocalists While I did not scan all the responses, did anyone mention Ann Wilson of Heart or Steve Perry? I can't say I much appreciated Steve Perry until I have heard others try to sing Journey songs and miserably fail. | |
| Genesis Revisited I picked up the CD, and while I appreciate the difference and treatment from the original tracks, I don't pick up the emotion that the originals had. GRII is professionally subdued. For example, listen to Ripples original and in GRII. The female s... | |
| Genesis Revisited Thanks for the news and the link. After listening to a few of the tracks on-line, I am struck by how they do not stray in any real creative way from the originals, they seem hollow, with less emotion, and less rich. To be fair, I should probably p... | |
| Supertramp I recorded the simple striking piano chords of Crime into a ring tone and wonder if some will be able to identify it. | |
| Paying it Forward ... Some great selections so far.1. Rhythm, Country and Blues. Many great cuts here and great song selections produced masterfully by Don Was. I Fall To Pieces by Aaron Neville and Trisha Yearwood is sublime.2. Shirley Horn - Here's To Life3. Supertra... | |
| Supertramp One of favorite bands of all time. Glad another finds "Soapbox Opera" special. Crime of the Century was the album gold standard to test dynamics in my local hifi shop in the mid-70's. This music began my quest as an audiophile and drove me to purc... | |

| Are there any albums you consider perfect? Seeds of Love is my preference too. Woman in Chains is wonderful as is the title track which can be checked out on DVD in Vol. 4 of Night of Proms which I had to buy from a London supplier. It has a number of highlights including Alan Parsons Sile... | |
| Fine trumpet , alto sax recordings? You might give Clifford Brown a spin, Embraceable You for starters, considered by some to be the greatest trumpet player of all time - a life cut far too short at 25 in a car accident in 1956. | |
| Best rock cover songs, list your favorites Donjr gets it with Cassandra Wilson. Spin up Wichita Lineman. And I like Jealous Guy by Roxy Music too. Also dig Love Hurts by Joan Jett. | |
| A "pop" masterpiece... Yes, Feel the Benefit is one of my all time favorites. http://tinyurl.com/7mpgu8sLooking for a high quality digital version. | |
| Praise for DacMagic Great information, thanks. For those of you who use a Squeezebox Touch were you able to hear the difference of the Touch DAC vs. routing through the DAC Magic before the PS upgrade? How did the upgrade effect the sound? | |
| Praise for DacMagic Wow! That is really fun news and a fun project. What are the model/part numbers of the parts? Any need for soldering? How about peak current? (I have all my audio devices plugged into the same 15A outlet.) | |
| YouTube Favorites to share. Can you say Freddie? Wow!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2omuoO_hIbQ&feature=related |
