Jeff Buckley - Legacy Edition of Grace - AWESOME Colour Revolt Plunder, Beg, and Curse Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago

I also forgot "Since You Been Gone" by Kelly Clarkson. I love that song and will sing and rock out whenever I hear it playing, no matter the setting, which can be embarrassing.

I "borrowed" a copy of Abbey Road from my dad when I was about 5. I had a GE/Disney "Pluto" phonograph - blue plastic, sapphire needle, one speaker - you know the type. It has a big plastic bone for a tonearm! I wish I still had it - anyway. My five year-old mind was taken on a ride, and I...

Foreigner - especially "Dirty White Boy"

K701 - I have no arguments for buying anything else

3x on the BitHead - really drives my K701's very well with my MacBook

Ballads was my intro to Coltrane, and still my fav I would assert that there are no records as accessible as Ballads

I know this is a Coltrane thread, and this is not an attempt to hi-jack, but rather to shed some light to some of this thread's participants music is subjective - like beer, wine, food - you like it or you don't, and just because you don't like something doesn't mean you are a failure or...

K701s arrived this morning - at the office - now I will certainly NEVER get anything done today; good thing I own the place! I think they sound great - out of the box through a portable RADIO - when my bithead arrives, and I can settle down with my Macbook and check them out with some decent...

I don't know if you still cruise this place, but I am a new head-fi initiate, and I live in Hattiesburg.

Some purists I know dis Diana K for being so pop - I say no way As great as Nat King Cole was, he did pop music - to eat; same with Louie Armstrong; nothing wrong with pop for me - she is a great singer, a true player, and a HOTTIE! As far as listening, I just got Death Cab for Cutie -...

I came into Coltrane later - I was a trombonist as a youth, so I listened to Bill Watrus, Chicago, and a lot of fusion. I got into Herbie Hancock through fusion, and was encouraged to go backwards and check out his earlier work, which led to McCoy Tyner - which led to me discovering Coltrane at...

old school punk rock - Sex Pistols . . . Bollocks, Dead Kennedys, New York Dolls, Sham 69, etc - are all immune to bad music systems; i have gone to many parties with suspect to no-fi music systems, and barking along to punk rock is never diminished because of a bad system, for me I have a...

I love that Bon Iver record

With any new set-up, I listen to recordings I am so familiar with, that I have a personal relationship with the nuances and quirks. If the new set-up can duplicate my intimate knowledge OR adds to it (better), I know I am on the right track. I just got a pair of AWESOME amps from TAD (Tube...

I believe the two experiences are so completely different that I can't compare them. I have some AWESOME front speakers - great for rock and pop, acoustic, orchestral, movies; some decent surrounds for movies, so when I want to listen to music and have other stuff giong, the speakers take me...
