Your Best Friend Forever All of Lucinda Williams' album from this century. She is the definition of an artist. | |
Rythmik Audio F12/F12-400 vs JL Audio E-Sub e112 @harpo75: Excellent! Now consider using a pair of the Rythmik Audio/GR Research OB/Dipole Subs in place of the woofers in the ET LFT-8b! The OB Sub can play up to 300Hz (the ET's dynamic woofers are used up to 170Hz), and will turn the LFT-8b i... | |

MoFi v/s UHQR @cundare2: I have another "problem" with Tea For The Tillerman: I just don't like Cat Stevens that much . Do you have the 2-LP/45RPM version of the Analogue Productions UHQR Kind Of Blue, or the single LP/33-1/3 version? I went with the sin... | |
MoFi v/s UHQR @cleeds: It wouldn’t surprise me if Fremer also covered the Tea For The Tillerman subject in his Stereophile column. This would have been quite a few years back now, but may be available in the mag’s archives. I have a lot of Harmonia Mundi... | |
Mary Martin Died @onhwy61: I’ve read about the Mary Martin/Hawks story in a number of places over the years, most recently in a new book I’m currently reading (see below). Before Dylan even knew about The Hawlks, Robertson and Levon Helm had been hired by John... | |
The Aaron Copland / Bob Dylan connection I signed up for the 3-LP Third Man Records pressing of the '74 tour recordings, don't know if I'm gonna spring for the 27 CD boxset. | |
MoFi v/s UHQR @cleeds: The information regarding the Dolby issue came from Bernie Grundman, Chad Kassem, and Michael Fremer. Fremer posted a video on his Analog Corner website telling the story, which was subsequently further discussed with Grundman in anoth... | |
Best Covers Buddy Miller doesn't do much songwriting (his wife Julie is in charge of that), so does a lot of covers. Here he is doing a Tom T. Hall song, displaying why I consider him one of my favorite living singers: https://youtu.be/q2tXW0OhfKI?si=8e0N... | |

MoFi v/s UHQR Regarding Cat Stevens’ Tea For The Tillerman (the recorded sound quality of which is stunning): For years the go-to version was the original "pink label" Island Records pressing. When Chad Kassem acquired the rights to reissue it on his Analog... | |
Experienced Maggie Lovers Please Advise @aniwolfe: Your wise recommendation (and choice) of the Eminent Technology LFT-8b will no doubt be ignored, as always. I’m a long-time Maggie owner, starting with the Magneplanar Tympani T-I purchased in 1973, and currently the Tympani T-IVa (t... | |
MoFi v/s UHQR I should have mentioned that original pressings of 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s LP’s are plentiful, and often available at low cost if you live in a city/town with a good used record store. Just yesterday I found a NM copy of the original pressing of t... |
