I'm not anti anything, having owned CD and vinyl. As a matter of opinion I think vinyl is much more collectable than CD. And I believe one can enjoy and even prefer the sound of vinyl playback. Ive...

I've fallen asleep to Rubycon and Phaedra numerous times (on the YT).

I've heard (in the past) the soundtracks to Firestarter, Legend and maybe another (can't remember but I'm sure it was an '80s...

I was with the family, vacationing in Hillsdale, MI, when I heard Neil Young's Southern Man on the radio for the first time. I was 14 or 15 (around '80). I finally had a reference for that one line...

This is an act that should be in my wheelhouse but I can't get into them at all. Is there a "Tangerine Dream For Beginners"?

My wife always had an uncanny ability to find Grease on TV and I imagine that this week it will be everywhere.

RIP Sandee

Yeah, they've painted themselves in a corner. Having used advertising terms like "limited production runs" and "one step process" suggests analog only. They manufactured scarcity by suggesting a...

When MFSL could/should have been touting the incredible quality of digital masters, they instead perpetrated the falsehood of analog superiority in order to capitalize on vinylphiles desire for...

MSFL lying about their "one step" product... it's as though they knew that even the most golden eared of audiophiles couldn't tell the difference.

And I shit you not, as I sit here waiting for a haircut, posting in this thread, the local radio station 103.9 in central Washington state, a Top-100 station, (KW3?) is playing RUTH. I'm pretty sure...

I'm fond of the song, Why Should I Love You. I remember years ago hearing the song and thinking, "Holy crap that sounds like Prince", then buying the album These Red Shoes and sure enough Prince...

Watson doesn't play for the Ratbirds so no

It wasn't a huge deal by the time I remember seeing it. In hindsight, nothing happened that every guy since hadn't already drempt.

I hope he told Derek to tone down his overly animated stage antics and just stand still for once

Would Bill Russell have been a great or HoF player in today's game? Well, no one really plays his position anymore. But could he play in today's game. He was certainly athletic enough. Plus he had...

That's so sweet. What a loyal fan you are. ;)

Free Bird - live or studio, which is your "go to"

Growing up in the south it was usually the live version that got the lion's share of airplay.

I think Class D amps are good for low power applications running full range, and they're good for subs at high power, but I've heard some high powered D amps running fullrange speakers and they did...

hmm... my grandfather was named William - Bill or Billy for short.

I remember on the old PE 2.0 on a Spock's Beard thread where we were discussing possible spinoff band names. Kirk's Girdle was one and Uhura's Skirt was another. One of my fave episodes involving...

Gee Wally, whaddiya wanna go and do somethin like that for?

RIP

Cozi, Antenna, MeTV and a few others are all rerun brand networks that are available in most markets free over the air (aka OTA) with your basic TV antenna (there's no such thing as a digital or 4K...

That surprised me too. One of the perfect song placements in my recent memories.

It only took Breaking Bad five seasons to use the song Crystal Blue Persuasion (I was like, "Finally!"). I have no...

I saw this with my parents at a drive-in. Part of string of snoozefests (The Black Hole, Star Trek: TMP) I was able to guilt trip my mother into taking me to for making me miss out on the first Star...

Early 70s when we got our first color TV.

Originally, Spock was to have reddish skin but when tested on a b&w screen, studio execs though he looked black. Presuming most southerners were too poor...

Sure, there's greater access to music but who's driving the bus? The algorithm? These trends we're seeing seems to always involve music out the modern norms. But still, most corporate pop pap has...

I know right. I mean, Fripp supposed to be some kind of perfectionist and he pulls that bullshit!

Yahct Rock is whatever the hell I want it to be.

Sultans of Swing
On Every Street
Lady Writer

As a matter of fact I geeked a buddy of mine into thinking that was a Dire Straits song so good call and funny post. I lollered.

Like he would know... :roll

I liked this album but feel especially emboldened to love it given that it meets the approval of one Mr. Rick Astley. Just as Stranger Things resurrected the career of Kate Bush I suspect Rick...

it doesn't matter if he is/was right or not, I agree with him.

I believe people can do both listen to gear and music but the core of audiophiliacs are in the constant pursuit of never being...

What About Love by Heart was a song that had been recorded just a year before by a Canadian rock group from Toronto, called Toronto which also featured two female singers. It was written by two of...

I've done that too, mostly in my youth. It might have something to with hearing a song mostly over car speakers.

I thought Bloody Well Right was a Pink Floyd song.

I thought Baker Street was...

I think he was right.

Who said listening methods have to be mutually exclusive? Not me. I'll usually listen to music any way I can get it, as long as it's music i like. I've never owned a...

In today's age, I can't imagine anything in the recording/production phase not being digital. I can remember when some labels back in the '90s touting CD releases that were DDD or "pure digital". I'm...

I loved that show.

Considering how hands-on and meticulous Fagan & Becker was with production, I think I'd defer track listing to them as well.

Will it sound like Forbidden Planet?

Will I like it?

His liver is only 49 though

A stand-in? On which albums?

The guitar solo on Afraid of What We Say ranks among my favorite guitar moments ever. It's a great song anyway; even at over 8-1/2 minutes it's over before I want it...

That last line caused me temporary blindness as my eyes rolled so far into my skull I strained the ocular nerves.

It's a good business model. They only have to find one sucker-err... customer....

I don't really do concert DVDs and I have heard Evening Games on the YT - I liked it ok but don't rate it as highly as the last two.

Sorry if this subject has been broached before but I couldn't find it in a search: where the hell did this band go?

I listen to Nostalgia and Into The Night all the time. Great band but boy oh...

I have good one going too!

Carry on!

He probably had a lot of pent up energy after being in witness protection in The Pineapple Thief

I've followed PT/Wilson for years. I particularly liked HCE and TTB. I didn't say TFB was a deal breaker, just pointing out the obvious. If Wilson says he was being ironic about marketing and...

I get why people don't want to read negative comments about their favorite artists but it's a message board, not a fan club. It should be easy enough for people who don't care for Wilson or PT to...

Couple snoots of whiskey and a melatonin

My brother had half-speed mastered LPs back when, one of the being Wish You Were Here and he said it was superior to the standard pressing

I've not tried Audacity. Goldwave is what I 'learned' on. In fact, Goldwave came out with a version for Android devices. Being able to fuss with tracks on the fly is so cool.

How does this hold up with their other albums? I haven't tried to look for any new Wilco. I heard a thing called Schmilco and it seemed like such a letdown after the momentum of three great albums,...

Doesn't everyone here have a digital file manipulation program they use edit/enhance their music. I realize that are still those who hold up a shiny cross where it comes to digital playback mediums....

As much as Steely Dan was a gateway into jazz for a lot of people The Nightfly was that for me.

I always thought Pixeline was about the heroine from a video game ala Laura Kroft. Steely Dan sure...

Me not know

jeez, again?

I saw on Amazon today that the vinyl version is a two disc set but with only seven tracks - how do seven tracks warrant a two disc release?

I agree. I've heard the album on YT tunes and I like it, but I'm going to wait and get the physical product on CD when I find it cheaper. I don't how this is formatted on vinyl, whether it's a single...

I don't find it all that implausible that Lennon might have liked early Yes; their early albums must have sounded so fresh, so creative, so effortless in a world weary of rehashed blues and staid...
