HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR SYSTEM IN LESS THAN 30 SECONDS

Dire Straits? Never heard of them. Are they popular among audiophiles?

Heard that Knopfler insisted his recordings had quality recording/production. Thanks Mark. Discussing some or many recordings where we like the music but the recording is so-so, personally think many artists compromise their careers by not doing exactly this.

Back in my twenties, which is way back, was friends with a local band from Athens. Great musicians led by an excellent songwriter who played with Howling Wolf and was with Steve Winwood on the road for many years. Us fans eagerly awaited their next album only to be disappointed time and again by the recording. They should have gone to Muscle Shoals. The guitar player played quite a bit in MS and Nashville. Always wondered why he didn’t drag the band up there.

I have all of Mark K’s solo albums. One of my fav tunes is ‘Back on the Dance Floor’ from the Down the Road Wherever album. Well recorded and totally rocks out on my system. I also like what he did with EmmyLou.

@tablejockey, when your contribution to the thread is to force your opinion on others what you think is not good music, perhaps you should reflect on how you spend your time and why you are even in this thread
