    Howdy Doody friends--Took advantage of Sennheiser's $200 price drop on their HD660 s2 headphones. Ordered them from Amazon at midnight and they were at my door by noon. Listening to Jennifer Warnes' impressive Famous Blue Raincoat from the late 80's on 45 rpm vinyl. These are the first non...

    Happy Saturday friends--spent the week in Steamboat. Gorgeous blue skies, decent skiing. Plenty of snow, but it takes awhile to soften up this time of year, so you can sleep in to about 9 AM and be cruising downhill by 10:30. Got this Bee Gees album spinning. Pics. My beard goes wild up in the...

    Mike Oldfield. Return to Ommadawn. His last and probably his best album. From 2017. Somewhere I have the DVD version with a 5.1 mix, but I prefer the stereo vinyl version.

    Greetings and Salutations Friends! Listening to The Minstrel in the Gallery. Been very busy helping a couple of local artists get their songs recorded, mixed and mastered in time for Easter. Just finishing my last project. Going back to Steamboat this Sunday for a week. Got some new ski boots to...

    Track #18. From a Lowell George tribute concert. Actually, LG didn't write that particular song, but obviously he sang the lead.

    Linda Ronstadt does a blistering live version of All That You Dream on that record that slays me every time I hear it. She did a few other Lowell George songs during her career.

    Put on your Sailin' Shoes. Love those guys. That's the only Lowell George period Little Feat that I don't have on vinyl. I think I left it at my cousin's house in Studio City:-( May have to find another copy. Wish I could still drink some Rye, but I'm on year 50 of my journey with diabetes. Not...

    Gettin psyched for the new Raconteurs album to drop later this month. The white one is Help us Stranger from 2019. And the Jack White fun continues with Lazaretto. This album plays backwards. You drop the needle at the end of side one and the needle moves towards the edge of the record...

    When are we going to make the Monday after the Super Bowl a national holiday? Combine MLK, President's Day, Columbus Day and Veterans Day into one big Monday in February. Gave up skiing this weekend to do 4 sets with the band. At this stage of my life, I'd rather play music and hang out with...

    Quad mixes are cool because they are truly discreet--not much subtlety to the ones from the 70's! Steven Wilson chooses the artists and the albums that he wants to remix--not the other way around. They are all of his favorite bands and I think he could easily talk his buddies Ian Anderson...

    Saw that band when I was a grad student at Univ. Wyo. Ten years earlier when I was an undergrad, we got ZZ Top, Fleetwood Mac, REO Speedwagon, Waylon Jennings, and Harry Chapin. Nothing against The Outfield, I mean they were decent, but that's a considerable downgrade from ZZ Top:-)

    Got the mono deck fired up for some Beatles...in M O N O. Ringo is really assertive with the cymbals on this record. And that REL sub is barely moving. Paul tried to get George Martin to employ some Hitsville style bass. To no avail. Not buying the AI/digitally rejigged collections. The...

    Gotta share a dark secret. Like many, Aqualung was my first intro to Tull. Loved it. Bought Benefit and Stand Up a few days later. Great albums. My best friend had The Was and we listened to it one afternoon. Hated it. Have not heard a single song from that album in 50 years--unless there's one...

    Saw them at Red Rocks on the tour where they did the complete British Steel album. RR has a hard ceiling because the rocks are falling apart from the EDM shows. Not sure what level it is but my phone app has their shows at between 95--100 db consistently. That's perfect as far as I'm concerned.

    Not a huge Journey fan. Talent through the roof, but consistently bad sounding recordings with everything piling up around 4 kHz. Decided to try some current ('22-'23) vinyl remasters from Chris Bellman. They are improved. The vinyl is taken from the original master tapes (don't get me started...

    They have amazing live sound. We try to get tix near the sound board. Outdoor shows I never wear ear filters. I have some -15 db filters that are perfect for indoors. The next show is indoors and I'll play it by ear (lol). Aces High from Senjutsu Tour, September 17, 2022.

    Guten Abend alles Freundin--Listening to Iron Maiden's epic Sinjutsu from 2021. Number one in dozens of countries worldwide. Saw this tour a couple of years ago. Already have tickets for next October (if memory serves) in Denver. Never miss them or Metallica when they tour the USA. Triple vinyl...

    Been looking for a reasonably priced version of this weird (in a good way) album from 1969. This one was new old stock from 2009. Excellent pressing by RTI. Felt cover. Gold embossed title. Two discs. Some of this album is absolutely gorgeous. Some of it is just plain stupid. But all of it...

    My dad had a Dual 1224 with a Shure V15 (Type III if memory serves) and a quad setup with a Sansui receiver and a Teac 3340S and a Nakamichi cassette deck. 4 x Pioneer floor standers with large horns. Mid 70's. Bought everything at Listen Up in Denver and he upgraded frequently. The Dual gave...
