First song, first listen to John Mellencamp's new album last night. Gave me that feeling of when a songwriter's career just hit a new plateau and left a bunch of his compadres in the dust. I'm a huge Springsteen, Earle, Guy Clark, etc fan and I'll bet they're impressed, too. Then add John and T Bone's creativity and artistry in recording it in three historic locations and it's quite a piece of work. I'm not going to listen to it too much on purpose so I can savor it a bit at a time. Sitting in my red chair in the dark staring at my aquarium between the speakers-Arcam CD33T, W4S STI-500, Usher BE-718's, pair JL F110's. Not the first goosebumps by any means, just the latest.
Last time you felt that "tingling" sensation?
We've all experienced it (and this is in the context of listening to music). Name the song/track/moment when you last got goosebumps listening to music. For bonus points, tell us where you were and what system you were listening to. Here's mine:
Song: "Hotel California" from "When Hell Freezes Over" (live version)
Where: In my listening/living room
On What: Levinson 390S driving Levinson 436 monos into Wilson Sasha's via Transparent cabling
Exact moment: when that kick drum starts slamming in that piece, it was utterly amazing
