| ELECTROCOMPANIET ECI 6 DX MKII @dwest1023 How does it sound compared to the Hegel? I have a 390, too. | |
| Woodstock 1969, or 1967? @larsman Personally I don't let Eric Clapton or George Harrison or Bob Dylan or anybody else decide what I should like and what is 'good'; I feel the same. | |
| Music/Life @roxy54 Yes; I'm aware of Neil's lyric re: Johnny Rotten. Whatever implications that might have for forum members escapes me. | |
| Music/Life @slaw Perhaps You can provide a link to Neil Young's comments. That way, you may get more targeted responses. | |
| Music/Life I’m not sure I understand the question, but here is what comes up for me. As I understand it, to "burn out" implies "burning the candle at both ends " or living as fully as possible, for a short span. I’m not as clear about the meaning of "fading... | |
| Norman's Rare Guitars (documentary) I once ran into a guy who told me he had a bad experience there (not going to go into details). I suspect the treatment afforded Rock star clients was not necessarily the rule. | |
| Woodstock 1969, or 1967? @bdp24 We get that you hold The Band above all others and that you have a low opinion not only of 60’s psychedelic Rock but of (as you recently opined) 70’s Rock as well. The thing is, many of us enjoy The Band, AND 60’s psychedelic Rock AND 70... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @alexatpos I listened to those selections. They are certainly emotionally intense, but as I don’t speak the language, I’ve no clue regarding what they’re singing about, so I could be missing what it is that you find difficult to tolerate. And j... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @frogman I was watching a "reaction video" yesterday by a guy who looked to be in his early thirties. He was reacting to a video from the Fillmore of the Allmans (original line-up) playing "Whipping Post". Not Jazz, but what did he say, among ot... | |
| Favorite Album Cover (picture or art on the cover) @bdp24 Hah! Yes you would! I’m a fan of The Band, too, but one not need be to enjoy a fine photograph. In fact, I own a book of Landy’s photographs from that era: "Woodstock Vision". Mine's an older version. It's since been updated, expanded:... | |
| Confession: I only like Norah Jones because so many others told me to Recognizing an artist possesses skill, creativity, etc.is one thing. Liking them is another. Liking an artist because one is told to is not a scenario I relate to. I'm too stubbornly independent where esthetics are concerned. | |
| Favorite Cover Album Should've mentioned: they've recorded several CDs available on their website. | |
| Recommended for Americana Fans: Amanda Ann Platt and the Honeycutters @slaw It's a pleasure to discuss music with you! | |
| Favorite Cover Album Leonid and Friends do mostly Chicago covers, led by the bass player, who transcribes all the parts note for note and anchored by a very solid drummer. The level of musicianship is consistently outstanding for everyone involved. I’ll admit it -- I... | |
| Recommended for Americana Fans: Amanda Ann Platt and the Honeycutters @slaw I did do a bit more listening. I find his music pleasant enough but ultimately it doesn't grab me in a way that would make me want to buy any of his CDs. Purely subjective. I've recommended certain music I like to other people and they've... |
