    You know what really kills Music?
    excessively heavy bass. Dont miss my subwoofer and I'm listening to hiphop right now. Maybe Linbrook System II would be better, but that will have to wait for a while.

    Hi Tek - Hi Teknology2 on wax

    waited too long to get this album. Nice & Smooth but can be hard hitting on some tracks.
    Enjoying it quite a bit, except for the track with Busta Rhyme.

    nobody just might enjoy this album.

    Peace,

    Well, well, well...

    Celebrating the end of severe blizzard conditions with a touch of McCoy Tyner with Stanley Clarke and Al Foster. A great way to ease into a relaxing weekend after a way-too-long workweek and wasted Saturday of shoveling and car maintenance.

    Peace out

    Glad you found that out. I have been playing around these last weeks with two subs from REL. And I am finally happy with the integration. I found that many subs aren't really subs just mid-bass enhancers and set much too loud. Boom, Boom, Boom. It smears everything.

    Anyway after a busy week getting myself back into work mode I have the house to myself today. So enjoying this right now:

    "Shawn Colvin - These Four Walls"

    Peace and keep'm spining

    too much bass sucks up the rest of the music, but too less bass isn't good too, then the highs suck up everything...

    The Eagles - Hotel california on wax

    The thump for the sake of thump is basically what turned me off rap in the frist place. Back when Dr dre was all the raveand every kid spent every penny on putting half a dozen subs in a Honda CRX.
    Hip hop seams to be getting away from the mad thump, and getting a bit more into the smother melodies. I have really started to enjoy it again. Artists like K-os.. ect

    Ramsey Lewis Trio - The in Crowd
    not a great recording, but gotta love chit chats/laughters and bottles clinkin' in the background.
    Highly recommended for Jazz lovers who dont get caughtup in the recording quality

    Picked it up earlier today.

    Macy Gray - On How Life Is

    I always liked that crazy girl featured on some CDs, but havent really thought about getting her album until last couple of months. This one is surprisingly good. I caught myself turning it up much louder than I shoulda been.

    The album is Funky, Soulful, Wacky, but I was more suprised on how well it was produced. Makes me wonder how good it sounds on MC SACD. I like this version of the song "I've Commited Murder" better than the remix I've heard. I probably should've got it on SACD, but I believe she has another album on the higher rez format. I'll be back.

    Willy Porter!
    Dave like to see the Willy Porter there- incredible acoustic player and songwriter and not a bad singer either. I met him after a couple of shows, he's a super nice guy. If any of you get the chance and are into the guitar you should check this guy out. He plays a lot of small venues which makes the experience even better. From Milwaukee.

    At my shack:

    Willy Porter- Live Wire

    Andrew Bird- Weather Systems- Andrew is classicaly trained on the violin and does a lot of sampling, whistling. He tours by himself or with his drummer Dosh also incredible live. :17:

    Ray Lamontagne- Trouble- Amazing singer introduced to me by a friend in Pittsburgh. He sounds a little like Joe Cocker.

    Coleman Hawkins- Nighthawk- One of my personal favorite tenor sax players.

    Freddie Hubbard

    Got this album last weekend, and I finally got to it tonight. I enjoyed it quite a bit.

    Claude Bolling Trio - Jazz à la Française

    http://s3.amazonaws.com/coolforever/...is_jeff_lp.jpg

    when I bought the album, I didnt even check to see who it was. Love the cover so I just picked it up for $3. I figured if I didnt like the music, I'll just store this cover in one of my record frames and put it up on a wall. I think I spin it instead.

    F1 to Musician.. an odd mix
    Well sometime this month formula driver Jacque Villeneuve is releasing his part french part english debut album entitled "Private Paradise". After hearing one of his tracks, I could only wish that he would have kept this album private. Just one more to add to the atheltes turned musicians list.

    Well after reading a post about fixing scratched CD' s I went rhough my collection attemting to repair some of my CD's when i came across Primus Pork soda although without having Les Claypool on the bass there really is nothing to listen to, but omg the way he plays the bass guitar makes it all worth listening to again.

    Found a great LP store in Cincy. I've been there before, but didnt care for vinyl back then. Kinda sad how I rate cities by their LP selections.

    Really enjoyed these 2 today:

    Al Smith - Hear my Blues

    http://www.dustygroove.com/images/pr...myblu_101b.jpg

    Jimmy Rogers - Chicago Bound.

    I'm sure these artist are nothing new to some, but it's gonna be a great genre for me explore. I'm pretty excited. Maybe MSamM? Where is bobsticks? Hey there Mr. Em. What, you are busy all the sudden? Hope everyone is well. Peace,

    Other than listening to Pandora.com, while online, I've been listening to some of my older rock & roll. Unless you're in your late 40's or into your 50's, you probably won't know these groups. Even if you are my age, you may not know them! :)
    I've been listening to:
    Spooky Two by Spooky Tooth
    Salisbury by Uriah Heep
    It's A Beautiful Day by It's A Beautiful Day
    Silver by Tranquility
    and listened to a more recent cd called Heart Of The Night by Spyro Gyra (smooth jazz).

    I figure some of you may know Uriah Heep and Spyro Gyra, but anyone know the other groups and albums?
