Bobby Whitlock on All Things Must Pass.
ATMP is my favorite solo Beale album by far and easily in my top 7 favorite albums of all time . Could not help but go for the Uber Deluxe edition. That is one nice looking Uber set, gpgr4blu.  It doe look like something that will become an he...

Bobby Whitlock on All Things Must Pass.

Bobby Whitlock on All Things Must Pass.
This is a 50th anniversary remix supervised by Dhani. Thankfully for me, Jeff Lynne got nowhere near this project, as far as I know. It will not make your copy of the original mix disappear.According to Dhani, George repeatedly said that he would ...

Joni Mitchell, BLUE album is 50 years old, NYT Article
Couldn't read the article, but Joni had a huge impact on songwriting and Blue may be her masterpiece.  She was and is a complicated person, but I guess most great artists are.  I love the album.

I’ve only listened to a couple of tracks on youtube (I’m away from home) so take this for what it’s worth. Van has been criticized by some for making the same album over and over for the last few years. They're all pleasant enough, but they all se... 
I heard the Box
OK. I’m glad to hear that your position on tubes has evolved Just to make sure that my memory hasn’t become entirely unreliable, I did a quick search and came across this post:millercarbon9,639 posts05-07-2019 2:01pmI’ve tried a bunch over the yea... 
I heard the Box
millercarbon9,636 posts I always dreamed of meeting another who can actually hear these things. Chuck, one thing has always cast doubt on your superior hearing abilities for me. It’s your claim that there is no difference between the sound of diff... 
New Bluesound Node – First Impressions
 Unfortunately your Denon SACD/CD player doesn't have a digital input that would allow you to connect a digital out from the Node to it  That would solve your problem with its sound.  I owned the original Node 2 and its DAC is just not that good, ...
