Has anybody any experience of some of the so-called audiophile CDs from the likes of Audio Fidelity and Mobile Fidelity - they seem to be about double the price of mainstream discs but to me that is a price worth paying if the quality is better than...
With so many classic recordings now being reissued on vinyl, how is it NOT possible for any loss of sound from the master tapes stored 30, 40, 50 plus years!? Can anyone please explain the storage and preservation process? I imagine that not in every...
Hi all,This is an observation that I have made over the years and I wanted to see whether other forum members agree.When you enjoy a piece of music, it is almost always on the first listen. Any subsequent listen clarifies and reaffirms the original...

"Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton have announced an eagerly anticipated collaboration at the 02 Arena London on February 13, 2010. In what will be one of the must see shows of this decade Beck and Clapton will perform together and apart.
A bunch of South London teenagers making great music. The vinyl is particularly well pressed and has one extra track as well. Check out their myspace. Sweet vocals over a joy division meets vinnie Riley vibe - always a good start IMO!

How many others on the forum consider Stravinsky to be among the greatest, or even the very greatest, composer of the 20th century?I think he may be without equal.

I see that the Bob Marley singles collection (Legend) is available on Domestic LP 180g vinyl. I was wondering if anyone had heard this and whether or not it was any good. I saw it for under £18 which isn't a bad price, as long as it's not grim,...

Sensible answers please. I understand the very first original 1959 pressing was cut at the wrong speed so that leaves the field wide open to subsequent LP and CD reissues.
I enjoy keeping my ears & mind open to new music. I've found The Mercury Music Prize to be a good source of 'new to me' acts. In fact it has introduced me to music that is now some of my all time favourites. I got a few records form this years short list, & Speech Debelle's 'Speech Therapy' has quickly become the current disk I can't stop playing. Musically it has many influences, including jazz & hip hop, but it sounds completely new to me. The music & lyrics are wonderfully inventive, & I...

It's been a while since we had a prog thread so I thought I would share a Top 50 Prog list taken from a very good new magazine called Classic Rock Presents Prog. The list has been voted for by the readership of the first issue. Maybe a little surprise...
