| Best Frank Zappa´s Recordings IMHO nearly all his records have parts with big genius written all over em'. Uncle Meat employs alot of great compositions and devices that didn't sink in right away and were used as a springboard for some of his best stuff in the 70's. If you're ... | |
| Best Live Recordings:Performance and recording In the good old days an artist's live recordings almost never sounded as good as his or her studio records. Brand X Livestock was a big exception. Some live instrumental rock recordings have succeeded in ratcheting up the ante a few notches. Massa... | |
| New Jazz Releases..What Do You Like? Roy Powell/ North by Northwest- Well informed young british pianist reflects but doesn't regurgitate Bud Powell, Chopin or any of his other influences. John Marshall (Soft Machine) and Arild Andersen who has put out several fine recordings on ECM ... | |
| What's your favorite instrument to listen to.... I sympathize w/ Scott, and can't even narrow it down to three, blame it on bass clarinet, baritone sax, cello, and tablas or is it vibes, bass, trombone and bassoon? Gotta' have the guitars and drums too. Oh yeah, and (probably most important) the... | |
| What are the best live acts? The Mentors... you perv. Wish I could have seen em', El Duce kills me, and the playing on Up the Dose is pretty damn good. PS- Any of you B.O.C. heads out there who have Direct TV can catch them any weekend this month on a free pay per view doing ... | |
| Early 1970's rock: Name some of your favorites SIR LORD BALTIMORE!!!... That's some paint blistering testosterone laced rock candy goodness. During that time Budgie, Ursa Major (guys who went on to play on Lou Reed's R&R Animal), Dust, Uriah Heep (1st 3 records), Patto, Collosseum, Nova (B... | |
| Early 1970's rock: Name some of your favorites You guys really know how to pick em'. Lot's of damn cool choices. You couldn't have gone to the same high school I went to. When the addiction to hit unused nerve endings really started to kick in, the following records paid off big:Kraan/Andy Nog... | |
| Question for Velvet Underground fans The first record (banana cover) is a real watershed. Almost all the tunes on it will play back in the head automatically after a few listenings. It's pretty obvious that it's foundation material for a lot of cool rock stuff that's still coming out... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? Nice to see some of the better Bedini amps getting their due, I had an upgraded 100/100 for about 15 years. Always thought it was great. I tried to sell it here last year for $400 because I thought I needed XLR inputs, (what a knucklehead). The ad... | |
| Maple, solid vs butcher block, vs other materials Had a maple platform for about 4 years that could have probably been set up better, and then had an mdf platform on a good rack for a year. Recently picked up a Neuance shelf. The Neuance improved performance way more than I thought it would. | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? Hey Bucsis, 1)I'm not the only lunkhead here who can't come up w/ one favorite guitarist. Does he/she have to wear the overalls or play them like an air guitar? 2)Didn't you put the overalls on Steve Morse? 3)Maybe I should try the Velveeta w/out... | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? Having to pick one is as cruel and unusual as it gets. Our friend Buscis 2 oghtta' be flogged and dunked. No offense, but some of you guys are living on velveeta and wonderbread sandwiches. I'm with you Inna, kind of thought McLaughlin would pop u... | |
| Your 5 Fav Rock Concerts Ivan, wish I had a time machine, I couldn't be more jealous. | |
| HELP Electrocompaniet stole Christmas Sean's response to Sos's first post seems perfectly on target to me. The warranty verbage is completely moot. This problem exists primarily because one arm of EC wants to make sure that their cut of the profit stays as big as possible above all el... | |
| Real Stinkers What a crack up! Captain Beyond! Haven't heard that name in quite a few years. That first one was an indispensible 70's longhair stoner record, the critics hated it, but it was one that you hung onto. They could have made it different, but better?... |
