| Sound quality of Roon After reading the comments on this post, one thing has become clear. There is no consensus on the benefits of Roon, in fact, it seems to me that people hear what they want to hear. My belief is that people subliminally convince themselves that t... | |
| What I really hate about some music @tylermunns "When one says Neil Young can “barely hold a tune,” and has “no vocal range,” it makes me wonder if they’ve ever heard Neil Young before." My comments were made to illustrate a point and sound a bit harsh in retrospect. Believe me,... | |

| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) @bigtwin "You haven't become your father" I am 67 as well and when I was in my teens, I not only listened to popular music, but also to old blues guys like Howlin' Wolf, Otis Spann and John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers. I listened to the Mill... | |
| Why Music Has Lost it’s Charms (Article) There are a few big problems with a lot of what currently passes for popular music. 1. Too many "musicians" prefer to copy, rather than create. The plagiarism laws that surrounded George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord" have disappeared to the point th... | |
