| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog Like many, I became aware of Rev. G. Davis via Jorma K’s covers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1SK3QTnGU8&list=RDc1SK3QTnGU8&start_radio=1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2v4bmWbXeg&list=OLAK5uy_k1_unICX7WcrG1S-2... | |
| For Ry Cooder and John Hiatt Fans @bigtwin I've never seen him live, to my regret. One of my all time favorite musicians, though. I think my favorite group of his was the one on teh album Showtime. In case you haven't seen this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyCtEDGG_jI&am... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog I seem to recall W. Guthrie’s guitar was emblazoned with the slogan "this machine kills fascists". | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Perhaps @hilde45 will go into more detail about what he meant, exactly. | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister I love music that calls out fascism and injustice. I suspect you are misinterpreting "calling out". To "call out' actually means to "draw critical attention to someone’s unacceptable actions or behavior." Thus, this is the oppos... | |
| Thoughts on Hegel's D50 DAC? @m_lefebvre This may or not be helpful... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGyTsOLg67E | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @acman3 Stuartk, In my personal experience, listening, getting, and yes, tolerating, many times lead to liking Perhaps I simply lack sufficient patience for hanging out in the "zone of tolerance" long enough for it to transition to "liking". ... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @frogman No one is suggesting that one has to like music that one is trying to “get”. I can't say whether I'm the only one who's been laboring under the illusion that "getting" and "enjoying" necessarily go hand-in-hand, but I appreciate... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog In regards to poetry being upfront with its meaning, I think that is not poetry. It's an essay or something else. Poetry, like jazz, must light a spark between listener (& reader) who must give something of themselves. But it's... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog RE: Bream, I love the emotion. BTW, I used to be in a band in Maine with a guy who, as part of his MFA degree program, had spent several months living with Snyder. Apparently, Snyder’s wife was not in the habit of wearing clothes ... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @audio-b-dog I would like to talk further about art in general. As a writer I have had to make choices about "inside" and "outside." I will ask people this: Who has read "Ulysses" or "Finnigan’s Wake" all the way through? More later when I have... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @frogman Hah! You're right! I'd be interested to hear what you'd suggest as far as a strategy for "getting" Free Jazz. As I stated earlier, I enjoy it when players weave outside elements into inside compositions (Post-Bop) but I have a viscera... | |
| Audio Analogue AA DAC @oddiofyl Thanks. According to A. A.website, it's OCD Mikey. Once I found out from the Canadian distributor that service is solely done in Italy, I crossed them off my list. | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @frogman Yes; I could change the subject but you guys are obviously enjoying your discussion, so I’m content to wait until a different topic comes up. I wasn’t complaining, just poking fun at the limits of my cultural sophistication. I'm the onl... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries I feel like a kid in a room full of adults when the focus turns to Classical. ;o) |
