| No Direction Home, Dylan documentary by Martin Scorsese. I’m with Bob and bdp24. I prefer keeping politics and music separate. Another side of Bob Dylan - My Back Pages | |
| Thoughts on Tube vs SS amplification for Sony SS AR1s @sfmorris,There could be something wrong with the Accuphase. It should not sound muddy and muffled. You may want to check on that possibility before moving on. | |
| How to accurately gauge speaker sensitivity to match with tube amp? I think you may be better off asking people which amp they use with their Focal 936s or Focal speakers in general. There may already be threads on this topic that you can consult. | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways Oh do tell me what young voice could improve Murder Most Foul ?I can think of many, but I don’t think it would do any good to debate that, do you?I hope the pasture pushers get a gentle nudge into a nursing home....Lighten up. Is Bob above all cri... | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways @bdp24 ,"The Houston Kid" is definitely a classic album and Rodney has been on an artistic tear. His songwriting has been at the highest level and the music he makes is as good as anyone is doing these days. I hope people check him out. I think... | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways But no, I don’t think he started writing to be in a ‘rock band’.I don't either. I think he started writing to emulate his hero, Woody Guthrie.Enjoy the new album! I think I've listened to it about as much as I'm going to. | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways @bdp24, I agree with you that the rockabilly edge in rock music faded in the 60’s, but it never disappeared. Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins continued to play their music all through the late 50s and 60s, except when they were in the hospital. Th... | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways No, this all started from you making the statement, ‘if he (Dylan) wants to be in a rock band....’ and implying his current effort doesn’t meet the classification of a being in a ‘rock band’,Sorry, but that’s not what I said. I was saying that Bob... | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways Rock music is an amalgamation of blues, country, folk, and even a little jazz sometimes, to keep it simple. A full all-encompassing description of what is rock ’n’ roll or rock would take more time than I have left on this earth. Rock became the t... | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways Gee, noone’s ever accused him of that before. 🙄Yeah, but there comes a time when you have to say, enough! it's time to quit, Bob. You're embarrassing yourself. That time is different for everyone, but he’s reached it for me. | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways I doubt Dylan ever ‘wanted to play in a rock band’.Then why has he been doing it ever since he joined up with The Hawks? | |
| Bob Dylan - new album just out on Tidal - Rough and Rowdy Ways I am not too impressed with Bob's raspy, nasal recitations. He doesn't sing much anymore. IMHO, he would be better off finding a singer if he still wants to play in a rock band. I doubt he will give up that much control, though. I give his alb... | |
| Integrated Amp (Gryphon, T+A, etc) or DAC + Stereo Amp for B&W 802d3 To georgehifi’s point, when checking specs, it is better to find a review with measurements than look at the manufacturer’s specs. Manufacturer’s often give "nominal" or average specs. An amp that has a 4 ohm impedance spec may dip well below 4 oh... | |
| New In 2020 @slaw ,+1 on Shelby Lynne. I’d describe the music as "blue eyed soul" and the sound quality is excellent. Shelby is one of the rare artists who care about sound quality.Don't expect The Temptations or Otis Redding, but that's how I'd describe the ... | |
| Vinyl / High qual analog tape / High-res digital -- One of these is not like the other What happens if we consider albums that were recorded digitally? As I understand it, most music has been recorded digitally for the last 40 years. Let’s say it was recorded digitally at 96/24 and I have a download or stream at 96/24 that hasn't be... |
