| Best looking reel to reel With the Tandberg you could get different hardwood side panels (I think). | |
| Great music few are aware of. Any genre. Muleskinner--the quintessential hippie bluegrass band. They made one album and there is an audio recording available of a local PBS TV appearance (probably wasn't called PBS yet, but...)Peter Rowan, Clarence White, David Grisman, Bill Keith and R... | |
| Steve Hoffman site Beatles discussions? I haven't heard a Beatles remix or remaster yet that didn't sound better than the original. I think if they could have made those Sgt. Pepper and Yellow Submarine tracks have that kind of vividness and freshness the first time they would have don... | |
| Steve Hoffman site Beatles discussions? "In the meantime one remix follows another."I'm only aware of two remixes--the tracks on the Yellow Sub redux and the recent Sgt. Pepper's. Are there more?Personally, I wish they'd remix everything that they still have the multitrack copies of. | |
| Austin Record Convention Just saw this--less than an hour left so I guess I'll skip this one--damn, I was hoping to go but I know so many vendors have already packed up. I hope it went well for you. | |

| A few versus that connect you........what song is it? "these days I sit on cornerstones..."--that's Jackson Browne, "These Days." I first heard Tom Rush sing that. | |
| Hope for the blues.. Considering Blind Lemon Jefferson, for one, was recording 100 years ago I'd say the original black blues masters are already long gone. But there are always some new ones that get it right. I remember when Keb Mo' and Corey Harris were the new k... | |
| Austin Record Convention Trytone, please post a reminder the week of the event for those of us who otherwise can only remember it two or three weeks AFTER the fact. Your booth is probably the main reason I go to the show (when I can remember to go). I hope to see you in... | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? I suggest some of you find one or more good, streaming radio stations. We have several that broadcast here in Austin, most notably KUTX 98.9 FM http://kutx.org/ and KOOP 91.7https://www.koop.org/listen-nowOf course, listening material depends... | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? Peter, Paul and Mary were thrown together. So were the Monkees. That's not the problem--it's a matter of: is the music good? It doesn't matter how it originated. Again, there's good stuff out there, but it's not likely made by the people who ... | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? In 1962 if you were in America you probably had not heard or heard of the Beatles at all.Also, the Beatles played their own guitars all the time, except for Clapton's solo on the White Album. And they played their instruments every bit as well as... | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? bdp24, have you heard the tribute to Doc Pomus CD (I think it's called Save the Last Dance for Me)? It's got Dylan, Los Lobos, Shawn Colvin, Dr. John, Brian Wilson, B.B. King, Lou Reed and others. Pretty fine, IMO. | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? Right on, bdp24. | |
| Why is modern pop music today so terrible? Styles change but there’s always an abundance of talent. Mahler once observed that "the younger generation is always right" after hearing a piece of Schoenberg’s (that he didn’t even like). Ed Sheeran, John Mayer and Jack Johnson, for instance, ar... |
