Jewel "Pieces of You". Let me say; I just got my M80s a couple weeks ago and I was so awestruck while listening to this CD that it almost brought a tear to my eye . It sounded like she was in my room, I just wish I could see her too \:\) . Now on to my fav band Rage Against the Machine!! Quite the dichotomy but I need to find out if my neighbors like them too


Great album. Watched Soundstage again, my first HD tivo recording was cut off so I re-recorded the entire segment. Sounds phenomenal in Dolby Digital.

Well, yesterday I finally listened to the Brothers in Arms (SACD). Thank you very much, CV!

It was outstanding. Wonderful. Amazing. So good my wife (who notoriously does not like loud music) picked up the remote and turned it up about 15 notches. I heard things I've never heard before on those songs.

Amy Whinehouse.
I tried to like it but can't stand it. This was a second try but my ears just will not adjust to that harsh voice. Some have said she sounds like Bonnie Raitt. Well maybe after Bonnie had a tonsillectomy. Get this gal some Jello for God sake!

My apologies to any Whinehouse fans but not every post need be positive... \:\)

I couldn't get into her, either, but then again, I didn't listen to a lot of her stuff. One of my friends was just so impressed that she was this young Jewish woman who sounds like an old black woman. I didn't really see the point in being excited over that. Maybe I'll give her more of a chance sometime.

Wynton Marsalis: Carnaval in PLIIx.

I listened to a few tracks and could not, at any time, point to any of my speakers in the room. Mental note: stop listening surgically and enjoy the music \:\) .

Started with Lynyrd Skynyrd "(pronuonced'leh-nerd'skin-nerd)" and ended with The New Pornographers "Mass Romantic". Despite the off-puting name, the Pornographers are the real deal when it comes to catchy pop music. If any of you are a fan of Neko Case, she is a vocalist on many of the tracks. Don't be embarrassed, dive in.

For some reason, I think I would like The New Pornographers if I ever got ahold of any of their music, but for whatever reason, I always forget to try some.
