Courtney and Kurt that is.....also Leonard Cohen a longtime favorite
Whats playing on your system today?
Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.
I listened to Trower songs:
Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....
Then I pulled out "Gamma".
I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....
Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?

Agreed that Satchs latest offering is quite a bit different from some previous releases. Read an interview with him in guitar player about it, he had to do a few solos twice as he "over shredded" and that was not what they were looking for on this album. Yes Glenn's bass work is killer, in fact an all round awesome rhythm section with Chad nailing it on the skins. Highly recommended. |
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cg6JDTaxosA Thanks, Nutty. This album is a lot more melodic than what I usually associate with JS. Great sound too. Bass is subterranean. This thing is LOUD! |
on now..... the latest by The Mutual Admiration Society. Awesome! Lots of soul... You need the lp! Don’t know for sure but it sounds to good to not be an analog recording. upcoming set list... Player...just one song.."Baby Come Back" U2 "The Unforgettable Fire" MFSL Rush "Permanent Waves" MFSL ...later ya'll... |
Wishbone ash, also a favorite of mine. Just Testing- 1st "albumn" I ever purchased. I bought a used copy in Gulfport Mississippi on vacation many years ago. Cost me $2.00. What was cool about it? I already knew it was a great album because arcam88 played it for me many times while I was at his home. And they rock and they were one of the best early bands to have great dual guitars. "Living Proof" https://youtu.be/bDNGzX7rTxc Also I’m going through this new Satriani- again, What Happens Next. It’s excellent. It gets better and better the deeper you get into it. The title track is very engaging. "Cherry Blossoms" and "Smooth Soul", very nice...But check out Glenn Hughes on track 7- "Headrush". Along side of Joe, he lays down some mean bass licks around 50 seconds into the song, again around 2:20 and then at 3:00. N |
@arcam88. One thing I have found with all my Wishbone Ash vinyl is that they are really well engineered and mastered. Excellent instrument separation and feeling of air and space. I remember seeing them in England and it was pretty amusing. There was no build up or announcement, they just sort of shuffled on stage, played a phenomenal set and then shuffled off again. Too funny. |
All of Glen’s stuff is excellent!! He is also associated with The Swell Season, & The Frames. You’ve gotta get a hold of their (The Frames) lp, "Fitzcarraldo", maybe only on the now OOP/ Music On Vinyl? Mind-blowing stuff! Highly Recommended!! If you like what you hear, read up on his journey... you’ll come to love him even more. |
@slaw Quite a number have been waiting patiently for the equicore.....lol. Just spoke to Mark and its being burned in and prepping for ship. I am very hopeful it will match the hype. Ok, so you can play mono on stereo cart and preamp but will just not be as accurate as a dedicated mono setup. That is good to know though. Thank you |
@uberwaltz I am dreaming of an Equicore. Let us know how it works out, please! My K&K Audio Trio phono-preamplifier was custom made for me by Kevin Carter with custom resistors for all of the cartridges I currently own. I can switch from mono/stereo, polarity, etc.. really nice options. In addition, I do have a Ortofon Cadenza Mono cart when needed. The Ortofon is strapped internally. To answer your question directly, yes. It all depends on how accurate of reproduction you want to go for. |
My Corepowertech equicore1800 is being shipped Monday which should take everything to an even higher level. One of the first power regeneration plants that is actually capable of handling power amps. Everything will get plugged in, read some of the reviews, I will chime in once I have got it and tested. |
