charles1dad ... Thanks for your kind comments. And, you are entirely welcome for the CDs. I wish you would post more on this site. As a fellow vibes lover, I miss your input. :-) As a teenager, I used to go to the Lighthouse Cafe in Hermosa Beach, California a lot to hear the Howard Rumsey Lighthouse All-Stars. Sometimes, I would take a front-row seat that looked up at the drum-set of Stan Levey, who in my opinion, was the greatest jazz drummer of all time. No matter how loud the band played, or how fast the pace was, there was no "cringe factor" to the sound. Stan just played music on those drums like no one else, while chewing gum with a relaxed look on his face. That experience was all about musicality and nothing about fidelity.

Hello ishkabibil. If you can't an oboe from a clarinet, you need more fidelity. If you can't tell a balalaika from a mandolin (Russian music) you need more fidelity. If you can't tell the sopranos from the . . . Get the message. You can follow the tune on a transistor radio. We spend the $$ in pursuit of MUSICAL ACCURACY, don't we? Keep smiling! |
@boomerbillone Ishksbibil on Bass @ 18 in '79 https://youtu.be/VPx3qjwyVww Toronto Alberts Hall with Peter Appleyard. Is that a clarinet in the opening? Sounds like it on my Galaxy S7 (free phone) and 3 years old........ Need I spend $$$ for accuracy? |
