Having a bit of a Santana glut whilst recovering from manflu and it's 'Caravanserai' that's hitting the spot. Awaiting 'Lotus' imminently which may usurp the present incumbent if it's as good as I've read about. What's yours? G

Anyone tried The Beatles' USB hi-res remaster? Just wondering if it sounds any good and also whether they've tied the Flac files to the USB stick with some kind of copy protection crap - i.e. am I free to pull them onto my uServe and play from there...

Billy Bragg's music seems to split opinion a fair bit. If someone was thinking of exploring his music output from the early to latter material, which albums are the best to start with?

What guilt pleasure trackwould you play if you had access to a higher level system than you already own, and the ability to crank it up to eleven?  Mine would be 'Don't Cha' by PCD.

Recently I received this book through the mail;   Obviously something of a labour of love by the author, Dr Horst Scherg.  It doesn't quite go to the lengths of Jaco Van Witteloostuyn's lavish The Classical Long Playing Record (credited...

Hi guys, recently went to see slash and mark Tremonti and was lucky enough to get my Tremonti signature PRS signed by them both. Was wondering if anyone's knows any safe ways to protect the signatures without anything reacting with my guitar? Thanks!

A friend of mine made me conscious of an utterly disturbing thing... I am a big metal-head and I love the music, but when he showed me the behaviour of the guitarist Selim Lemouchi, who heads the much-hyped band "The Devil´s Blood", I couldn´t believe my eyes. This is disgusting and people like him should be in prison for these acts. But, considering the now famous satanic "anti-kosmos"-philosophy, what should one expect??? This is where I draw the line, may the music be as good as...

I have albums in my collection by artist I should like and tried to like but just don’t. For instance I have tried to like Kate Bush, Milles Davis, Paul Weller and Steve Wonder over the years but just find it difficult. Is it just me? Or have you also tried and failed with certain artist, no matter how many times you have given them a go. Regards Graham.
