| 100 Albums You Would wish for...from a Genie @mahgister Quick fix: Qualifying statements like, - “music is about visible architecture and rhythmical times” - “music is not about tonality versus atonality” - “music is about feeling, willing and thinking” - “in serialism music is disconnected ... | |
| "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down". @onhwy61 ”John Bonham couldn’t play in The Band. No way.” “No way”??? How is this statement logical? Levon could be his typically great self, singing wonderful lead vocals, singing great backup harmony vocals, and playing a multitude of instru... | |
| Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters Ruins the Song ‘Money’! I don’t understand how such a bold proclamation of, “(original author) ruins (own song by merely releasing a new version 50 years later)”, could possibly be supported by appending a video of some unknown dude sitting on the floor, weirdly singing ... | |
| AI and the future of music I really chafe at the false equivalence, the general fallaciousness, and the abject awe-mongering that defines the typical Artificial Intelligence Apologia argument. You can always see these arguments coming a mile away. There is a clear diffe... | |
| List some of your favorite live Jazz recordings Charles Mingus - Mingus at Antibes (‘60) Miles Davis - In Person Friday and Saturday Nights at the Blackhawk, San Francisco (‘61) Charles Mingus - The Complete Town Hall Concert (‘62) Thelonious Monk - Live at the Jazz Workshop - Complete (‘64) J... | |
| AI and the future of music How could A.I. possibly be any good for music? What is the point of listening to music? I listen to it to have a human experience. There is human-to-human communication occurring there. I’m not particularly interested in what HAL-9000 “thi... | |
| Stephen Stills @roxy54 Buffalo Springfield: Neil wrote, - “Nowadays Clancy Can’t Even Sing” - “Flying on the Ground is Wrong” - “Burned” - “Mr. Soul” - “Expecting to Fly” - “Broken Arrow” - “On the Way Home” - “I Am a Child” Stills wrote, - “Go and Say Goodby... | |
| Stephen Stills @roxy54 “I have rarely read a more ignorant comment.” Jesus.🤣 You’re not serious, are you? On multiple levels, I am unsure of your seriousness. | |
| The Symphony of the Audiophile: How Do You Define Enjoyment in Sound? The number of times my fancy-shmancy gear “enhanced” my enjoyment of music is clearly outweighed by the number of times my preoccupation with minutiae (whether during actual music listening - so many hours spent listening to music while being irke... | |
| Stephen Stills @waltersalas “…this is like comparing the 1985 Los Angeles Lakers to the Washington Generals. Neil Young is in a small handful of the greatest songwriters in rock and roll history…Relatively speaking, Stills isn't much more than a footnote.” T... | |
| It’s it just me or there are others. It’s really weird, these very recent threads regarding, “I don’t like something…does that make me…wrong?” Are these actual people or A.I.? I guess we can’t really tell anymore. It’s scary how increasingly fearful we’re becoming of individu... | |
| Am I defective? Music reviews are subjective. One person’s trash is another person’s treasure. In my experience, pitchfork.com is the only place where consistently well-written and extremely well-researched reviews exist. I’m aware there are other sources for e... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @stuartk Here’s a snippet from Guitar World magazine: ”Because Studio Two was the only studio in Abbey Road with the new TG console, the mics in Studio One were patched into the Studio Two console for this session. Geoff Emerick and co-engineer ... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? @stuartk I share your assessment of “Sgt. Pepper.” The White Album, an album that contains compositions like, “Martha My Dear,” “Blackbird,” “Happiness is a Warm Gun,” “Julia,” “Dear Prudence,” “Cry Baby Cry,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Se... | |
| What does it take to be a die hard Beatles fan? Somehow this got on the most tiresome of tiresome things: Eric Clapton. I get it. “There but for the grace of God go I.” I too could have been a Baby Boomer. I too could have been brainwashed by the Baby Boomer Music Media Industrial Complex, th... |
