| Early 1970's rock: Name some of your favorites Darryl Way's Wolf, especially the Saturation Point Lp. John Etheridge who went on to Soft Machine after Holdsworth left really tears things up on all 3 Wolf records.Hmmm...Kiss Army, shortly after that one came out a co - worker at Crystalship, (a... | |

| Best Frank Zappa´s Recordings IMHO nearly all his records have parts with big genius written all over em'. Uncle Meat employs alot of great compositions and devices that didn't sink in right away and were used as a springboard for some of his best stuff in the 70's. If you're ... | |
| Best Live Recordings:Performance and recording In the good old days an artist's live recordings almost never sounded as good as his or her studio records. Brand X Livestock was a big exception. Some live instrumental rock recordings have succeeded in ratcheting up the ante a few notches. Massa... | |
| New Jazz Releases..What Do You Like? Roy Powell/ North by Northwest- Well informed young british pianist reflects but doesn't regurgitate Bud Powell, Chopin or any of his other influences. John Marshall (Soft Machine) and Arild Andersen who has put out several fine recordings on ECM ... | |
| What's your favorite instrument to listen to.... I sympathize w/ Scott, and can't even narrow it down to three, blame it on bass clarinet, baritone sax, cello, and tablas or is it vibes, bass, trombone and bassoon? Gotta' have the guitars and drums too. Oh yeah, and (probably most important) the... | |

| Early 1970's rock: Name some of your favorites SIR LORD BALTIMORE!!!... That's some paint blistering testosterone laced rock candy goodness. During that time Budgie, Ursa Major (guys who went on to play on Lou Reed's R&R Animal), Dust, Uriah Heep (1st 3 records), Patto, Collosseum, Nova (B... | |
| Early 1970's rock: Name some of your favorites You guys really know how to pick em'. Lot's of damn cool choices. You couldn't have gone to the same high school I went to. When the addiction to hit unused nerve endings really started to kick in, the following records paid off big:Kraan/Andy Nog... | |
| Question for Velvet Underground fans The first record (banana cover) is a real watershed. Almost all the tunes on it will play back in the head automatically after a few listenings. It's pretty obvious that it's foundation material for a lot of cool rock stuff that's still coming out... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? Nice to see some of the better Bedini amps getting their due, I had an upgraded 100/100 for about 15 years. Always thought it was great. I tried to sell it here last year for $400 because I thought I needed XLR inputs, (what a knucklehead). The ad... | |
| Maple, solid vs butcher block, vs other materials Had a maple platform for about 4 years that could have probably been set up better, and then had an mdf platform on a good rack for a year. Recently picked up a Neuance shelf. The Neuance improved performance way more than I thought it would. |
