| Music is sound, sound can be music @tablejockey Ah. I saw this as a recently used thread. Saw folks contributing recently. I read the posts, and responded to yours, which was, apparently, made over a year ago. Still don’t know how talking about certain music on a music forum s... | |
| Best Sound Track Ever Vote for One @bdp24 Criterion looks great. Streaming films can be an exercise in frustration for those who want good visuals. I’ve sat there and spent 10+ dollars to watch one movie, bailing on multiple rentals in quick succession only to find the subsequent... | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music @tablejockey What’s “been over a year?” | |
| Why Purchase A CD Player or Transport ? @secretguy ”Streaming is virtual theft.” Artists indeed receive a mere pittance from streaming engagement (a fraction a cent per play). According to the RIAA, CD and vinyl combined sales accounted for about 11% of revenue in 2021. My guess is t... | |
| Best Sound Track Ever Vote for One @bdp24 I’ve been meaning to watch “Paris, Texas.” I love Harry Dean Stanton. I just recently watched the hilarious David Lynch short, The Cowboy and the Frenchman starring the great Mr. Stanton on YouTube. Jeez, what a great and a hilarious sho... | |
| DISCUSSION: "It only comes out at night". Does anyone else have this experience!? There may be some legitimate science to support the idea that, as a result of a multitude of factors, electronics may produce better sound quality at night. I agree with the others here that say such a perception is mostly psychological. Mood, l... | |
| Why Purchase A CD Player or Transport ? Understanding that sometimes price may not be an issue, $4,000 seems like a lot of money. I get these insane expenditures on analog gear because it’s the nature of the beast. A $1,000 cable. Hmmmm…. Others may be able to provide cogent argumen... | |
| Is blasphemous Music ok? @pesky_wabbit 100%. How anyone, given the small sample size of just the last few months, let alone the last couple thousand years, would cast AT LEAST a skeptical eye, if not a completely terrified/horrified eye at the domineering, oppressive and ... | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music @tablejockey What does talking about a type of music have to do with “social issues?” And if such a discussion is “tied to too many social issues,” what about that discussion is so hazardous or disagreeable to avoid altogether in a music forum? | |
| Creedence on vinyl Correction: I misspoke on Rhino. That Fun House I used to have was not a Rhino. The more I think of it, the more Rhino has been great. Those Black Sabbath reissues I got of theirs were awesome. | |
| Creedence on vinyl @bdp24 Interesting conversation with Mr. Inglot. I was impressed with the sound of the Ace CDs, for sure. Not sure the dates on those, I’m thinking late ‘00s. Rhino seems to be hit-or-miss, sound-wise. I’ve heard some pretty good stuff from them... | |
| Music is sound, sound can be music @frogman This idea that rap is, “not music” is simply incorrect. Personal preferences and opinions aside, saying it is “not music” is simply incorrect. One could say, “I don’t like rap music.” To say it doesn’t qualify as actual music is incorr... | |
| Is blasphemous Music ok? What I found blasphemous was the braying and bleating of the coiffure-challenged guy in the video. Why are you screaming at me, dude? What’s your problem? | |
| Creedence on vinyl Ace Records is a wonderful thing. When I went through a heavily diligent period of excavating as many “songwriter/scribe-only,” ‘60s songs by Carole King (Goffin/King) and Randy Newman as I could find, Ace Records CD compilations were as good a s... | |
| Creedence on vinyl @bdp24 Oh my gosh, do Everly Brothers recordings sound amazing! With fear of sounding cliched and “grumpy-old-man,” so many recordings of that time period sound absolutely gorgeous. I have a mono Warner Brothers vinyl Golden Hits of the Everly B... |
