Thanks to you, I've been unable to get this out of my head, so I thought I'd pass it forward...
Bless your heart!

NP if you want to try some I will see how many I have left after my current build. I used to get huge discounts from that company but no more. I miss the sales rep I used to have, she never sold me a lot of product but I enjoyed the back and forth, in a very business like sense of course.Thanks!
Appreciate it, Tom. I intend to make cables for my Schiit stack in the rack that bcowen gifted me with. It will give me something to do at the bench, as I just got home from the ER at the hospital. I should get some sort of frequent flyer miles at that place.NP if you want to try some I will see how many I have left after my current build.

I totally agree with your sentiment! There are very few bands who could just straight up play their album and pull it off but PT somehow managed to make it magical. Mostly because you realize they they are achieving that level of professional perfection in a live setting with no chance of fixing f*ckups. And as technical as their music often is, that's impressive.I had an opposite experience. The Proclaimers performed at the Calgary Folk Festival last century. I had their Sunshine on Leith CD (I lived in Leith for a while when I was an undergrad) in my bitchin' car changer (I spent more on my TOTL Sony car stereo than I did to buy the car it was in, a 1966 Valiant convertible). I also had a very revealing for the time home stereo where I also listened to the album.
Anyway, they came out and played their album, no in-between song banter, front to back. It was exactly the same as on the CD. They could have been miming along for all the audio difference. I felt like I could have just stayed home and played the record and gotten better sound with no sunburn.
Very disappointing. I much prefer artists who strive to provide a different experience from their recordings, and a different experience night to night.

What is mine is yours Sam, take care of yourself and I will get back to you tomorrow.Appreciate it, Tom. I intend to make cables for my Schiit stack in the rack that bcowen gifted me with.

I remember years ago my brother bet me I wouldn’t be able to taste the difference between I think Jack Daniels and Makers Mark. I got it right and was shameless in my gloating.Whiskey blind tests are awesome for the same outcome of disabusing people of their preconceived notions of "best ever" whiskey.

Have I witnessed a 1 word post from ACP. Are you feelin' ok. I can get some meds out to you. Next day delivery. Just give me the word. This forum is not the same without you.Yes.
Great suggestion! I have enjoyed some of the other Pat Metheny albums (and I have a few) but I had never heard this one for some reason.A bit early, but I may be away from the computer tonight as I'm not feeling tip-top today. I may have over Cinco de Mayo'ed yesterday.
Here's tonight's Jazz recommendation. So many good ones from this artist that it was hard to pick just one. This one is probably not a very well know album, but it is a favorite of mine. Enjoy.
I should record it for you. Sounds like a bunch of mice having a dinner conversation over a wee dram.I make sure that my seating position is greater than .5" from the headshell. If it is still a problem, I stuff a cotton ball in each ear. I'm not fortunate enough to have my rig in an anechoic chamber so it's typically not a problem for me. It would seem that my breathing and heartbeat would likely be a bigger problem than 'needle talk'.
That's why I ask. Seems like something that shouldn't be happening.Needle talk? Really? With today's high compliance, high quality cartridges, styli and tonearms?
