| What was the last CD you bought (Name, and year issued)? @thepigdog - Love the Sadies 'Colder Streams' - so sad about Dallas Good, but he left us with a really strong, rockin' album..... | |
| This place is getting sloooooooweeeerrr...... It used to be really slow for me too, but it's been mostly OK over the past 6 months or so.... | |
| Roger Waters and Graham Nash on The Band. @bdp24 + 1 - and of course Dave also had his Rockfield Studio in Wales where a great many bands over the decades went to record... | |
| Suggest one obsure album we all should hear @reubent - Thank you for that.... I was just interested in the Maryland connection, though; always interested in what's come out of my state of origin! | |
| Why does rock concert sound suck? @barts + 1 - Yeah, I saw/heard that 'Wall of Sound' a couple of times, and Owsley was doing their sound from before that, almost as far back as their beginning. He was brilliant, and the Grateful Dead live sound quality continued on well past Owsl... | |
| Roger Waters and Graham Nash on The Band. Also about Dave, I liked how a couple of my favorite artists gave Dave songs they'd not recorded that I think rank right up there with their very best; 'Crawlin' Through the Wreckage' by Graham Parker and 'Girls Talk' by Elvis Costello... | |
| Roger Waters and Graham Nash on The Band. @bdp24 - Yeah, Dave Edmunds is great - my first exposure to him was 'Saber Dance' - my favorite of his is 'Repeat When Necessary', but they're all good. I loved seeing him with Rockpile, which I did a number of times. Last time I saw him must hav... | |
| Why does rock concert sound suck? I was once at a concert by the Cars, on the Panorama tour, and of all bands, this was one of the loudest I'd ever heard - the PA was blowing the hair on my head and punching me in the gut and blasting my ears!! Yes, Grand Funk did that once to me ... | |
| Best music in 2022 Kristeen Young - 'The Beauty Shop'.... | |
| Suggest one obsure album we all should hear @16f4 - Where in MD are they from? I'm asking because I'm originally from Silver Spring.... | |
| Roger Waters and Graham Nash on The Band. @bdp24 - Hah! You are right - I am not a musician, though I am teaching myself piano these days. But I think that matters not a jot! And it would serve no purpose listening to Dylan and the Dead after Dylan and the Band, as I would have zero expe... | |
| Why does rock concert sound suck? Probably because it doesn't always suck. I've been to hundreds of rock concerts and some have had absolutely pristine sound, like hearing it on a great hi-fi system. And sure, plenty sound horrible, too. Venue, sound crew, lots of reasons... | |
| Apples and oranges Yep, those online audiophiles just PERSIST in talking about audio - go figure!! 🤣 | |
| Roger Waters and Graham Nash on The Band. You make it sound like the Grateful Dead were just hired hands trying their best to do what Dylan wanted them to; these were collaborations - the Grateful Dead had been doing Dylan covers at just about every show through the 80's and 90's - they k... | |
| Steely Dan Catalog on UHQR Vinyl Are those UHQR records the ones that cost $150 or something? |
