| What drives your music and live show preference? After 50 years of concert-going (from classical to pop), I rarely go to a live performance anymore due to high ticket prices, the talent available, and the hassle. I've already heard most of the folks I would want to hear (often multiple times) bu... | |
| Watched the MTV awards that night Bdp24, you nailed it. | |
| Great female voices She's learned to make certain affected sounds with her voice but the voice itself does not impress me. Just my two cents' worth.I like this girl: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAx4o3cXO2U | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... Kb54, nothing is "without question" in a subjective field. I've had two or three guitar students over the years who did not like the Beatles. There are no absolutes. | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... Never got him until I heard him with an acoustic guitar and no band behind him. Still can't stand the E-Street Band stuff. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Bartok SQ #2, Julliard; VSOP Qunitet, side 3. Mahavishnu Orch, Apocalypse, side 1. | |
| Well recorded solo piano and solo acoustic guitar? Tommy E. is definitely not low-keyed. Totally opposite. | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thanks, Schu--and FWIW, that is one really fine-sounding recording. I need to check the engineering and producing credits. | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Bdp, that reminds me--a friend once dropped acid and went to an E. Power Biggs organ concert. Must have been fantastic. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Bill Evans, "Alone." Robert Gordon w/Link Wray & Jordanaires. Julliard Quartet, Bartok #1. Modern Jazz Quartet, some kind of "best of" 2-LP set on Atlantic. | |
| Your favorite recent discovery Puddles. A towering tenor who does great covers of contemporary pop tunes. Go to you tube or check out puddlespityparty.com. I recommend starting with "Royals" or "Hallelujah." Satisfaction guaranteed (or your money back). | |
| Best speakers to buy for around $1,500 I went with Dynaudio monitors at that pricepoint and later added a REL sub. Many years later I'm still pleased. | |
| RIP Jillian Johnson The Figs Czarivey, sorry if I put words in your mouth--I needed to go back and re-read all that had been said.My "user name" hasn't changed in all the years I've been on A-gon. It's not suddenly plural. Yes, it is a silly moniker, intentionally so. Lighten... |
