I just finished listening to Tower of Power's "Back to Oakland." The first word that came to mind is "complete"--It has everything. Great horns, beautiful harmonies, driving beat, upbeat funky, lush strings in some places, the sax player is GREAT and the main lead singer is feeling it. Oh and there is tremendous variety while remaining within the genre. This is a Full album--yet not overproduced. @shadorne can you please just send me complete playlists please?! :-) @fmpnd Squib Cakes is a very fun song. And I'm getting ready to listen to some of your recommendations next. I will tell you what I think afterwards. |
"Funky Destination" is a cool group "Resolution is Only Solution " is the album that get from Pandora . I am using "Nightmares On Wax" as the Station name . I am getting a lot of Cool stuff this way . BTW .. I am using a Roku Ultra with HDMI out to the 4K HDR capable HDMI in of the Freaking Awesome Oppo -UDP-203. The Oppo has 2 HDMI ouputs . #1HDMI out is Audio Only (I am sending it to an HDMI Input on My McIntosh MX151) the Other 4K HDR . #2 HDMI output is going to My Sony 70 inch 4K TV. It is Unreal how good the sound is ... Better than my JRiver into the Mx151 , with HDMI also. All of my HDMI cables are all Purist Audio Design... except one . The one HDMI cable that goes from The Roku out to the Oppo-203 in , is the Wireworld HDMI Starlight 6. I Know this is a lot to Digest, But I have never heard anything sound this good. Amps are McIntosh MC30s (restored by Yves Beauvais at Vintage Vacuum Audio) Pre-Amp is McIntosh MX151 (with Lyngdorf Room Correction) Interconnects are the AWESOME Purist Audio Design- Dominus-Fluid . Power Cable for the MX151 is Purist Audio Dominus -Fluid Speakers are the Tekton Double Impact. Speaker cables are The Sonoran Desert Plateau by Star Sound Technologies Speakers are the Tekton Double Impact.. The speakers are also sitting on the Sistrum Apprentice Platforms . I am sorry about ranting and raving , BUT, I have never heard a system sound this GOOD. Very Natural Unforced Sound with KILLER BASS , imaging..etc . IT HAS IT ALL. I cannot believe it myself. For the first time in Many many years , I am completely satisfied with this setup |
