| Top 5 Song Writers Of The 80's Some very good choices above. I'd agree with a bunch o' 'em. And I'd like to add: Roddy Frame (of Aztec Camera), Mike Scott (the Waterboys), Paul Buchanan (the first two -- and best two Blue Nile discs, I believe, were released in the '80s), Paul ... | |
| Keep SACD Petition link Thanks for the information, Merganser, I did not know that. It most assuredly would be nice if SACD caught on -- finally. And here I was, busy being a downer. | |
| Keep SACD Petition link It is difficult for me to imagine that this petition -- or any petition of this sort -- is going to make a real impression on the record labels. If people had bought SACDs (or DVD-As or whatever), the record companies would have made more and more... | |
| Beatles on vinyl -- what to look for ... I'm looking for sonically superior vinyl. Not necessarily the best, but better than average, if that's possible. Thanks, again. | |
| Grateful Dead Remasters? I have the Rhino remasters from the box set called "The Golden Road." I think it was from about 2001. It's the first eight records on something like 12 discs. And they are fabulous, all of 'em. In fact, I just happened to be playing a couple of th... | |
| My brand new TT was wired out of phase ... Thanks for your help. It is, in fact, far worse than simply being out of phase. (I spun a record for just a few seconds yesterday and had thought that that was all that was wrong.) I just tried another for the heck of it, and there ain't poo for b... | |
| An ignorant question about impedance Thanks so much for your clear and thoughtful responses. Back in college (in the 1970s) when I was spending a bit of time studying English literature and journalism (and a lot of time drinking beer) I used to wonder what those guys over in the engi... | |
| Your favorite prog rock music? ? Thanks to Lindisfarnefor adding "Tales from Topographic Oceans" to the list. I honestly haven't listened to the thing in years -- I don't even own it at present -- but as soon as I saw the topic, it was the first record that strang to mind. It's a... | |
| Steely Dan's "Two Against Nature" on vinyl? Thanks so much for the information. I'm glad that I never found one of the fake ones, and I look forward to one day getting the real McCoy from the boys themselves. I know that WB and DF are not Two Against Vinyl! | |
| Pet Peeves - my Rants and Raves I agree completely wit Dopogue's comments regarding PayPal. I'm pretty inexperienced on this site, but I've not charged a "fee" -- a fine, really -- for using PayPal the couplafew times I've sold something here. When I see Product X listed for $2,... | |
| I miss my Rega turntable. What to do? Thanks to each and all for your help with this. I'll have the Rega back in my system very soon. (And eventually, I've no doubt, I'll be asking about moving on up to a P3 or a P5 ...) Thanks, again. You guys are all right. |
