| Music trivia anyone? Only thing I remember about that was the song "I can Dream About You", with Dan Hartman, off that soundtrack. | |
| Music trivia anyone? Oh man, Garfish, isn't that one of the greats, Ry Cooder? Speaking of a Pignose! I love that sound on the Crossroads soundtrack. | |
| Music trivia anyone? I didn't think Clapton played with a Pignose until the 461 Ocean Boulevard album (listen to Motherless Children, as a great example of a Pignose).It's a little "drier" sounding to me than a Champ, which has a strong "tube" distortion. Of course, I... | |
| Music trivia anyone? BTW Gary Busey played drums for Leon Russell. | |
| Music trivia anyone? Jimmy Page played a 1958 telecaster on Led Zeppelin I. For MOST of Layla, Clapton cranked up a tiny Fender Champ to the point of distortion. | |
| Another 2,000 Speaker Question I just want to thank everyone for their help and advice concerning my choice of speakers. I have opted to purchase the JMR Trente loudspeakers. Since I an a newbie, I will probably opt for a CD player and integrated amp to keep the purchasing deci... | |
| Album of the year? 3 nominees: John Hiatt Crossing Muddy Water; Steve Earle Transcendental Blues; Emmylou Harris, Red Dirt Girl | |
| Best version of Aqualung on CD? Yes, the sound noise shaping system! Egads. I will now look for the DCC, thanks to both of you. I hope the DCC version cleaned up Locomotive Breath and didn't chop off the ending to Wind-up (like my first copy!) | |
| Emmylou Harris, "Red Dirt Girl" Garfish, do you have her Live at the Ryman CD with the Nash Ramblers? It's more country/bluegrass than Spyboy, Wrecking Ball, etc., but she still nods to the alternative country scene with some Steve Earle and Springsteen covers on it. Lots of Bil... | |
| Emmylou Harris, "Red Dirt Girl" I agree 100% with Jadem6. The Spyboy versions seem to have more punch and life to them. There are a few quality songs on Wrecking Ball not on Spyboy (Title Cut, her version of Steve Earle's "Goodbye", among others), but I'd give the rankings the s... | |
| Emmylou Harris, "Red Dirt Girl" Anybody else have "Spyboy"? I like this even better than Wrecking Ball. Buddy Miller is fantastic, and the rhythm section is outstanding. I saw this lineup live and it was an excellent show. | |
| Greatest Guitar Band I won't argue regarding Muddy Waters (his later lineup with Johnny Winter smoked as well, what a band). I had the fortune of seeing Albert King live before he died, he was awesome (when asked about Eddie Van Halen, Joe Walsh said Albert King "woul... | |
| Greatest Guitar Band The greatest guitar band would have the greatest guitarist, which would be Jimi Hendrix. The only question: JHE or Band of Gypsies? | |
| Another 2,000 Speaker Question Trelja, I think your post regarding tubes got me looking into my earlier post re Tube integrateds. The reference may be a little steep, but the regular orchestra is affordable; I read a review of it that had me salivating! I totally understand you... | |
| Another 2,000 Speaker Question The answers have been outstanding by everyone. I can't relate how much I've learned! I am getting excited about purchasing speakers, though I want to be sure I get compatible equipment with (1) music taste, (2) room positioning, and (3) potential ... |
