First song to "Blow You Away"...
I remember laying in bed about ready to doze off listening to AM radio when Little Wing by Jimi came on. I had never heard a song like that in my life. The only problem was this was 1966... and the song wasn't recorded UNTIL 1967. I tried to find ... 
Which Jazz Albums are similar to Kind of Blue
The Cannonball Adderly offerings with Bill Evans and Milt Jackson are must haves. Now they are more boppin than KOB but if you buy the re mastered extended CD's the sound will not disapoint. 
Which Jazz Albums are similar to Kind of Blue
Something Else by Cannonball Adderly. If you have a turntable this LP is out in so many Audiophile pressings by Blue Note,Classic Records and some others out there if not get the re mastered 24 bit version.Also Dave Brubeck Time Out is a breezy ro... 
New Record Sounds Like Crap - How???
Fantasy Vinyl that they use for their newer LP's sucks,plain and simple. The last decent records they produced would be around the mid eighties. The new Blue Notes are a hit and miss option too,it depends on how they were shipped and stored by the...

Dark Day For Hands On Music-Movie Buyers
Tower Records a music store? Give me a break. They sold magazines from Home and Garden to Guns and Ammo,they sold tickets to ANY event in town not just music, they sold movies and perfume. Tower stopped being just a Music store along time ago. Rat... 
Dark Day For Hands On Music-Movie Buyers
Yes jaybo but the music collector that truely shops for the bargin has the beach front property in the here after. 
Dark Day For Hands On Music-Movie Buyers
Tower was always over priced which didn't make any since. They bought in bulk and yet independent music stores charged less for new titles and there back catalog. I will admit I used to go to Tower for jazz because of the selection but I won't mis... 
Jethro Tull
Aqualung is my favorite Tull offering but you are right,this was Andersons view of what the Tull sound should be. I believe the bass player Glenn Cornick bailed after Benefit and formed a band called Wild Turkey. Anderson is Tull,he has written ov... 
Overlooked R & R gems from the past
Eric Johnson/ Venus Isle. After receiving the Grammy for his Ah Via Musicom he came out with argruably his finest work. The angel on the cover descending to the heavens is his girlfriend Darsie Silver who was killed during these recordings, a vict... 
Jethro Tull
Don't quote me on this but if you have a CD player that is making your 16 bit CD's 24 bit than it should read a true 24 bit CD with no problem. I used to have a pioneer Elite which featured there version of the upsampler it was called the Tos link... 
Jethro Tull
Peter,If you have a 24 bit CD player I really think you will find the remasters quite reasonably priced. Try Amazon and look at BOTH used and new listing for the title you are interested. Sometimes the used ones ARE NEW and the price a bargin. I l... 
Music out there with good bass
Anything by the Cowboy Junkies. They seem to elevate the bass in their recordings. May I suggest One Soul Now. It reminds me of a Cowboy Junkies CD with Neil Young on it although it's only the guitar player who sounds a hell of a lot like him. 
How's your music library?
I have close to 18,000 black diamonds and they are in alphabitized order. The collection runs the gamit from Pop to Classical from jazz to RocknRoll. Lately I have thought of selling some of them off because after the last 3 years my music interes... 
Jethro Tull
Is it the new 24 bit remastered? I have found the three Tull 24 bit remasters I have purchased sound great.The 24 bit remaster of Stormwatch sounds better than my original pressing vinyl IMS.I don't think my phono amp is as good as my Sony Modwrig...
