Yes. If music offers content and structure, what does sound alone offer that music does not that leads to disinterest in talking about music?
Tim, I am so enjoying the music on that Musica Nuda LP, particularly the cut “Guarda Che Luna”. It’s about the music for me, but at the very end of the song, there is that single bass note of a plucked string that just hangs and fills my listening room and at that moment it’s all about the sound of that note and not the music. It is marvelous.
I don’t think it leads to a disinterest in talking about music, but there’s a part of the listening experience that is about sound for me and not the music. The quality of the sound from the system in the room is what gets me to the venue.
