| what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original? @pesky_wabbit - Before I even looked to see what the link went to, I was thinking, 'my favorite version of 'Walk On By' is by the Stranglers!!' Big Stranglers fan, here... | |
| what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original? I don't know if it's better than the original, 'cause 'Billie Jean' was a pretty great song to begin with, but the late, great Chris Cornell slowed it down to almost a blues type of song, and he puts so much feeling into the lyrics; I really under... | |
| Suggest one obsure album we all should hear @nutty - Indeed it was, Nutty! I think there were 2 Paris albums that came out. I was fortunate enough to see them at Winterland in San Francisco in the mid-70's... Bob Welch was very underrated... | |
| Suggest one obsure album we all should hear @nutty - Paris was a band that Bob Welch started in 1975.... | |
| Music for the Pacific Audiofest show Diana Krall! Norah Jones!! 🤣🤣 | |
| what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original? @painter24 - I'm so with you on the merits of Graham Nash. Nothing against the guy - I loved him in the Hollies and he's a fine photographer, but his CSN(Y) songs, to me, are about the most insipid things I've ever heard (and back then, I listened... | |
| what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original? @painter24 - I much prefer the JA version of 'Wooden Ships', and Paul Kantner did co-write it with Crosby and Stills. But then, I like JA a whole lot more than I do CSNY anyway. | |
| Favorite religious song @bdp24 - I think I'd have gone with 'Highway to Hell' - I suppose that could be considered a 'religious song'! 🤣 | |
| What is the best 2 channel listening chair? @ghdprentice + 1 - Totally agree - I used to have a stressless zero-gravity chair where the back went above my head, and it was terrible for listening to music - it sounded so different when I moved my head forward away from the seat back. I event... | |
| Why do hipsters prefer analog? @cpr267 + 1 | |
| Best/Cheapest/Easist Way To Burn CD's? @mahler123 + 1 | |
| Best first track The Clash - London Calling.... | |
| DAC diminishing returns @dsfreeh - there are references to Chord further towards the top of the thread. Some people love Chord gear, others, like me, not so much. Great quality stuff, just depends on what your sound preferences are, and Chord is a bit dry for my tastes (... | |
| McIntosh LB200? @nonoise + 1 - you mean the name that new guy is using is the name of a race car driver? I don't follow car racing. But I'm not hip to Naomi Klein - please enlighten! | |
| DAC diminishing returns R2R DACs do not sound the same as chip DACs. A Denfrips will not sound much of anything like a Chord. Personally, I much prefer R2R DAC's and don't much care for the Chord sound, but for some people it's the opposite, and it's nothing to do with ... |
