| Jazz for aficionados Speaking of Hammond B3 players, is anyone familiar with Joey DeFrancesco? On this song, Joey has a wonderful solo starting at 2:52. And the rest of the musicians are awesome, too! | |
| Jazz for aficionados @pjw81563 -Smith's Foxy Lady is terrific. Thanks for sharing! @mahgister -Love the fat tone of a Hammond B3, also. Because of the posthumous CD /record releases, I find Hendrix's music inconsistent. Up to Band of Gypsys, when Hendrix is good, h... | |
| BEST little know Jazz Album that you ever heard? FWIW-Anyone who lives within striking distance of NYC can see Ed Cherry at Smalls Jazz Club, 1/8/2024. I believe there is a live stream, also. https://www.smallslive.com/events/27013-ed-cherry-trio/ | |
| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim -Thank you. I have "The Individualism..." look at THAT band! I'll give your recommendation a listen. @acman3 -Going to give your recommendation a listen, also. Just throwing this question out here-if Hendrix had lived, would he have... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Anyone here like Gil Evans? Some of Miles Davis' best albums are arranged by Gil Evans. Later, he did terrific arrangements of blues standards like "Spoonful." About a month ago I got "The Gil Evans Orchestra Plays the Music of Jimi Hendrix." Terr... | |

| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim - "Anyone else love Tardo Hammer? Listening to Look, Stop & Listen and it’s just great." Yes, fabulous record. A very well recorded/produced record of the music of Tadd Dameron. Charlesdad2, a regular A'Gon poster, recommended t... | |

| Lumin Hifi Rose or Aurender I have an Aurender N200. It's sublime. I chose it because of its beefy power supply, shielded isolation and (for me) ease of use. Since I already had a DAC I really like, I did not consider a unit with DAC/streamer combination. | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? @calvinj -"My daughter punched a hole in the cone of my Gato FM6 speaker when she was 2. lol 😂 I lost my mind that day." Ouch! I hope you were able to repair it. I suspect others on the A'gon chat board can share stories of pets, family, friend... | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? @tomic601 "Lord…i had banished from memory the Cat and the destroyed REF5 se …… instant PTSD…." LOL. Me too! I liken it to a teenager wrapping his dad's sports car around a mail box. | |
| Have we lost civility and respect on Audio forums? Good thread. Thanks to the OP for delving into the limits of civility. A number of years back my cat destroyed my ARC Ref 5SE. I posted a request for help/advice and while I got sound advice, certain posters decided the thread was an audio chat bo... | |
| HoloAudio Spring 3 Kitsune DAC NOS Congratulations! You own a fine DAC. What sounds best to you? A fun thing, I always enjoyed, getting new audio equipment is the discoveries you make while "playing around." David | |
