| The New American Songbook The only one which I believe may be around in 100 years will be All I Want For Christmas, due to it's holiday use, and traditional style. | |
| Which band IS really America's Greatest (rock & roll band)? Oy, many of your are sadly misinformed. U2 is from Ireland. Bruce Springsteen considers himself a solo performer who shares the stage with the E Street Band (they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame separately).It's true that most o... | |
| Bands with great second albums i agree with Dylan-The Freewheelin; Springsteen-The Wild,The Innocent; Steely Dan-Countdown to Ecstasy; Elvis Costello-This Year's Girl; Led Zeppelin-II; Neil Young-Everyone Knows; Jackson Browne-For Everyman; and the Band's S/T album. I'd add Jo... | |
| Neil Young - Free Access to Entire Catalogue in Hi-Rez Thank you for this post. I am enjoying listening to his early albums with a Dragonfly Black and a pair of Audioengine 2 speakers! This is my first experience with high resolution streaming. | |
| Which audio component would you like Santa to place under the christmas tree for you? Ditto for asvjerry. | |
| Brooklyn DAC+ Anyone? Has anyone directly compared the Mytek Brooklyn and Benchmark DAC3? I'd be very interested in how they compare sonically as DACs, as well as their use as preamps. | |
| Most overrated bands I think this guy is just a troll. Either that, or he lacks an appreciation of music of the last 50 years. Why not include Bob Dylan and the Beatles why you're at it? | |
| Greatest Rock Drummers Ringo Starr had a unique ability to add something different and interesting to each song. | |
| Bill Chinook / Bruce Springsteen It's not Springsteen's fault that most Americans cannot think more deeply than their perception of the four word chorus of one of his songs. He is a great artist by any measure, and the most influential musician that America has produced since Bo... | |
| Dac that produces music I'd like to know which schitt dacs are being recommended, and how they sound compared to similarly priced dacs! | |
| DVD-Audio Mint Condition Collection.... Also interested, especially in the AIX releases. Let us know how you're listing them. | |
| Anybody into 80s big music? Sorry, but the 80's were a definite low point, with few exceptions (R.E.M., the Smiths, U2). Most of that music sounds very dated due to the synth pop production style. The best artists from the 60s and 70s generally stayed true to their use of ac... | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... Andrew, when I said early in their careers, I didn't necessarily mean their first several albums (although for some of the artists that I listed, I feel that those albums included a lot of their best work). I meant to say that rock and roll seems ... | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... It seems to be the rule (rather than the exception) that in rock music, most of the artists' best, most unique and creative work arrives early in their careers. Most people would say that about Bob Dylan, The Beatles (together and apart), the Ston... | |
| It Was 40 Years Ago Today... I'll stand by what I said. Neither the Stones, the Who, Queen, etc., were able to connect with people emotionally, communicate a compelling message and create a sense of community in the way Springsteen was. The other band that has been able to do... |
