| ELECTROCOMPANIET ECI 6 DX MKII @freediver Thanks so much for your very helpful comments! | |
| ELECTROCOMPANIET ECI 6 DX MKII @gryphongryph Have you heard any of their components? | |
| ELECTROCOMPANIET ECI 6 DX MKII @lak Thanks for the link. Watching that video is what originally piqued my interest. However, he is never enthusiastic about anything for very long before declaring, with great fanfare, that something else is "the best". I started the thread to ... | |
| ELECTROCOMPANIET ECI 6 DX MKII @audiotroy What can you tell me about the sonics? | |
| What exactly is PRaT??? @jwei I haven’t been into audio long enough to associate this term with any brand. When I researched my Hegel H390, I encountered mentions of its tendency to "move the music along" and once in my system, this was indeed apparent. It was not only... | |
| Phil Lesh @jafant . . . not sure he was more of a beast than Entwistle ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80dsyo2Ox-0 | |
| Various artists share their Bob Dylan anecdotes with Otis Gibbs. @bdp24 On a similar topic, you're probably already familiar with Leo Kotke's Dylan encounter but others here may not be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2KoIWEAdaM (Actual anecdote begins at .52 into video). | |

| Jazz for aficionados @coltrane1 ... whatever turns you on. Jazz is a huge, multifaceted genre, so there is plenty to explore, choose from and enjoy! | |
| If you haven't yet discovered Rosie Flores..... @wolf_garcia The unpopular music business Clever! Unbeknownst to the general public, some of the best artists in the world fall into this category. We can count ourselves lucky, whatever the reason(s) might be in our individual cases, that... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @frogman OK. You read my mind. I don't know if this will impel me to buy any of his recordings but I can't complain that he never plays lyrically. ;o) | |
| Jazz for aficionados @frogman Ah -- "hint of..." -- my mistake! Yes; I can definitely see how Lovano and Potter differ. This isn't the case regarding Potter and Brecker. I'm not disputing the parallels you draw, it's just that I haven't listened much to Brecker... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @frogman Thanks for your response. I'm always learning something new from your posts ! Perhaps my ear is simply not sufficiently acute to perceive the dominant "Jazz/Rock sensibility" you pick up on in Potter's playing. Or perhaps this is simp... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @frogman Well OK. But having witnessed Potter 4 X with Dave Holland Quintet, I'm curious as to your reasoning. He can certainly handle very slippery timing and harmonically ambiguous settings. | |
| Steve Morse pays tribute to Jeff beck @slofut I imagine it was very inspiring to spend time with such a player! |
