"the rhythm section is so soul-less and robotic, they needn't have used real musicians." stuartk- I think you described the overall vibe of the album. Music for the sake of music- in background while doing chores in the house. Guitarists  for M...

"As talented as he is, I have to admit I have mixed feelings about his playing. I take very seriously the notion of the musician’s priorities as being in service to first the song, second the singer, third the ensemble, and lastly his instrument. ... 
Does Formula 1 racing and high end audio go together for anyone else?
"I like F1 and wish they’d come back to Long Beach" nonoise-I’m a Long Beach native. 1975-first year, it was quite unorganized. For a couple of us teenaged kids in the hood, it was great because we were able to walk/watch the entire course, sit i... 
Has the cost of HiFi gotten a bit too much?

Great story bdp24. Yes to Danny Gatton. I play an early 90's Antholgy 2 CD now and then. Storied player. The 50's country, R/R and fringe Tele players up to the Beck/Page era are the ones who really made the Tele otherworldly. Big respect to all...

Mahgister- Ostad Elahi is new to me. First thing that comes to mind- "steam of consciousness" listening.

bdp24- Albert Lee is in otherworldly club of guitarists. He always shows something in his playing that is mind blowing-at least to me. I also vote Vince Gill as a heck of a player. He can pull off some Telecaster  hot rodding when he wants to. ...

Anyone who is a guitar player  or plays an instrument should be laughing at some of these post. It's funny   how "cultural appropriation" is a popular thing to squeeze into threads.  It's just a thread about the "value" of  EC Rolex.    "But th...
