| Do you guys like Adele's music? Good grief, look at the traction this thread has gained!I guess the desire to hear new, modern entertainers just isn't one of my things.I keep going backwards to hear what all of this current music is attempting to separate itself from. There is ... | |
| What is the best LP version of Quadrophenia ? What is "best"? Arguably a period British Track is what is an "original" Your MCA is already several iterations from "the truth" but doesnt necessarily mean inferior sounding. Quadrophenia is a favorite, and gets play time now and then. IMO rei... | |

| Do you guys like Adele's music? cd318-I have a kinda rare Joy Division "Unknown Pleasures" Given to me in 1980, by a friend who was hip to the changing music scene. I was still clinging to my Zep and Stones. Its not an uber rare Brit press, but still a US early copy.It's had nu... | |
| Hendrix blues I don't recall what video it's on, but it's Jimi's coolest version of "Hear my Train A Comin". It is performed as a 12 string acoustic solo, in an all white set. Jimi is wearing a white suit. Jimi initially starts the intro, doesn't approve and in... | |
| Do you guys like Adele's music? cd318-We can thank some of the 80's "entertainers" for this now accepted style of "art"? Mariah Carey comes to mind. Vocal range of 20 octaves and delivering in every chorus, is mandatory. Add dramatic background dancers for the video naturally.Mu... | |
| Do you guys like Adele's music? another get approval thread.If you like that yelling,over the top singing style which seems to be popular these days, just go with it.Not my cup of tea, but the top of your lungs, dramatic is what the masses appear to like. | |
| VPI Classic quirk The problem is very specific.This will seem odd to the hyper careful among us...I've never bothered to turn off the motor when flipping sides. I just lift and flip, tighten clamp. Never seen or heard any damage to anything so that's my thing. I de... | |
| VPI Cuing arm falling too fast My lifter bacame wonky, so I got a repelacment from a friend who works on VPI's.Put the new one on, and put a record on. Instinctively, I cue the arm and drop the lever... THE STYLUS SLAMS DOWN ON THE RECORD! A close inspection reveals the replace... | |

| Tuner power cable ? I would be concerned with the best antenna setup possible for your setup. Power cord is the least of your worries. | |
| Air Tight PC-1 Coda and more options to upgrade my analog setup mayoradamwest- Another serious combination is top dog Soundsmith carts on upper end VPI's Strain gauge to my, ears worthy of being in the contentious "best" group.Check it out if possible. | |
| Great musicians who should have been famous except.... Since drummers are in the spotlight-Rock particularly, don't forget Jeff Porcaro, who was a 70-80's studio go-to. Those not familiar, drummer in Toto.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_PorcaroImpressive resume as far as pop music.His Wiki list ... | |
| Great musicians who should have been famous except.... Van Halen 1984?"And is there a better lead in to ANY rock vinyl than that?"WHAT?!! As a 16 year old in1978, I saw VH do one of their first SoCal arena gigs to promote their debut album. I thought they were possibly one of the bands to carry the ... |
