It's my favorite Snarky Puppy album. The band playing with Metropole Orkest is genius by Michael. Highly recommended.

Big band jazz ... reminds me of Snarky Puppy. This from their 4th album, released in Sept 2023.

This band reminds me a lot of Snarky Puppy, although I think Michael League's compositions are more interesting ... should I say more "snarky?" Buckle up. Dedicated to the memory of Levon Helm and The Band. Cool ... the vocalist is Cécile McLorin Salvant. I like all of Snarky Puppies'...

I'm running Roon because I wanted Qobuz and my old JRiver didn't support Qobuz. I just use a Mac as my host for Roon, then USB into Unison on the Gungnir. The Roon / Qobuz combination works well for me and the SQ coming from Qobuz is great. YMMV as always.

I love trombone music and big band (my favorite trombonist is Wycliffe "Pinecone" Gordon) so thanks for this idea. It led directly to the following album, on which Jennifer also plays. Happy listening! :-)

Great music, @Ripper2860. Thanks for the suggestion. This song was composed by Eden Ahbez, who was a fascinating person.

Happy to be of service. My first time hearing it. Principles of Lust is "playing" right now. Erotic & yummy. :-)

Very cool. So in Harrisburg, you folks lived thru the song "Allentown" by Billy Joel. Me, too ... my dad worked for US Steel Gary Works. We spent our weekends at the Lake Michigan shore, instead of the Jersey Shore. For today: Principles of Lust: perhaps NSFW? The Enigma is kinda groovy, but...

Luckily, I didn't ever experience this hobby from the Audiogon viewpoint. When I got in, around 2012, the big thing was headphone meets around the local area. Nashville and Atlanta. At those meets, folks would just bring their HP gear and a few pair of cans, and we'd all walk around listening to...

I like this way of thinking. Refreshing, at least. :-)

The factories where I was employed had work instructions, while the distillery has house recipes. That sounds like a helluva lot more fun!

Back in the days of international travel via Delta business class, the sad decision was made to no longer offer Glenlivet scotch to the passengers. Only Dewar's would be available. That took some getting used to, but after grousing at the flight attendants on a couple of round trips, we all...

Thanks, Tom. We're happy that you recovered so you can be here with us, in this happy place. Making great cables and sharing your life knowledge. We all seem to do that pretty well here, ya know? Approaching 10,000 pages of shared and valuable knowledge. Wow, just wow. The best thread on Head-Fi.

My fellow Boilermakers salute your generosity. You got any of those Cohibas sitting around your shop? :-)

I've smoked some damn good cigars in my time, maybe the best being the Padron Family Reserve which is 10-yr aged tobacco and ~$35/stick. I am quite sure, however, that I will never smoke a $135 cigar. After all, we're talking tobacco here, not Lamb's Bread from Jamaica. :-)

Song composed by Miles Davis. Song composed by Jimmy Dorsey. That's Roy Hargrove on the trumpet. Sam Bush on the fiddle. Victor Wooten on vocals. Edgar Meyer on bass. Chick Corea on piano. HD800 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~> :)

Haha a cool customs official ... who would have thought? I had some Cuban Cohibas in Germany - very sweet smoke even though not properly humidified. I also snagged some real Brazilian cigars at the same shop that were wonderful. A mixed-size box ... a work buddy and I polished off most of 'em in...

You know it's kinda funny and very consistent. I've been coming here for a long time, and saw many people to experience the sound of a Mike Moffat multi-bit DAC for the first time. The reaction by the new listener is always the same: "wow, I never knew that digital music would sound this good."...

Yeah, I remember the story. Nice work turning all that around into your new home. BTW, these are some of the best cigars I've ever experienced. The Brazilian tobacco rocks. https://mikescigars.com/cigars/brands/davidoff/davidoff-escurio/davidoff-escurio-corona-gorda-pack

I like your choice of paint colors ... the brown in the book shelves. The walls in our kitchen & eating area are done in that same brown ... it's a large space with vaults and a lot of windows - the brown makes the space feel warm. Once your Yggy warms up for a couple days - get ready to...
