Dr. Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati has signed off :-(
During the turkey drop as everybody was in the studio listening to Les describe the scene, all were all horrified except for Johnny who just sat there with a wry smile on his face. Classic Dr. Johnny Fever.  
Michael Aday (Metloaf) has passed away.
larsman It's closer than you probably think it is. Grand Funk Railroad sold 25 million albums while Creedence sold 26 million. GFR had 7 top ten albums, two #1 singles, but never a #1 album. Creedence had 5 top ten albums, zero #1 singles, and tw...

Paradise By the Dashboard Lights is just one of those songs that when you were young and you got off of work on a Friday evening and you heard it on the way home, it got you pumped up and ready for the whole weekend, especially if you had some par... 
Share MYSTICAL, HAUNTING songs
flrun But when Sarah McLachlan does those ASPCA commercials, even the dogs think she's being a little heavy handed (credit to Jim Gaffigan).  
Share MYSTICAL, HAUNTING songs
No one remembers Timothy by The Buoys?  My stomach was full as it could be And nobody ever got around To finding Timothy Wonder if anyone ever wrote a song about the Donner Party?  
Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good
I was going to write another joke reply by listing greatest hits albums of great artists, then I thought I'd just play it straight. The Who - Who's Next Rumours - Fleetwood Mac Boston - Boston Aja - Steely Dan Breakfast in America - Supertram... 
Beautiful Music That Reduce You To Tears
  Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer - It's seasonally appropriate and I just keep thinking about poor old grandma.  
Short list of musical subwoofers
REL subs seem to be the only company/product that the majority of Audiogoners can agree on. I've never seen anything like it. Are there dissenters? Of course, but we're talking "majority" here.  
Something Millercarbon has preached Be A Better Listener. Do not get mired in data.
That article would have been much more helpful if he actually provided a set of tips on what to listen for. Yes, he provided some information on how bass notes are produced and knowing the different parts of a bass note might help determine if you... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
hilde45 This will be my last post on this subject. You said: "That's not a question I can make sense of without some kind of science fiction scenario." Not being able to make sense of it sounds to me like it was meaningless to you. The whole poi... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
hilde45 I think the purposes of the OP’s questions were to see if anybody had an explanation different from "I just feel it and know it." I agree with you that the vast majority of the answers will likely be that one, but that doesn’t mean someon... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
hilde45 My confusion comes from your interpretation of what the OP wrote. He didn't ask: "How does someone else determine that you enjoy listening to music through your stereo?". That's how you interpreted his question but I don't think that's wh... 
How do you know when a stereo sounds good?
hilde45 You said: "It's like asking the question, "Am I in pain?" That's not a question I can make sense of without some kind of science fiction scenario." Can you elaborate on that paragraph? I don't understand what you are trying to say. I know... 
Can You Hear Me Now
What are these golden ears of which you speak? While it might not be an attractive look but with the price of gold close to an all time high, wouldn't it be wisest to cut them off and take the cash? Just sayin. 
What song have you played the most?
The Sting version of Little Wing. They have the skins pulled so tight on those drums I'm surprised they didn't break and the sax solo by Branford Marsalis is ethereal.
