    Manfred Mann Earth Band, a little late to this party, any fans here at WBF

    Never paid any attention to this band other than the Springsteen cover tunes played on the radio years ago. I apparently acquired a copy in one of my bulk purchases awhile ago. Recently I have been turning my head to my record collection and blindly pulling out a record and listening to both...

    Searching for Sugarman

    I never knew of or anything about him growing up in the USA and that's a shame. What and amazing human being and I think we all can gain some levity from him. I am interested to hear from those in this group from around the world that have grown up listening to him, his lyrics cut to the chase...

    Elvis' Beast of a band

    I never knew what a beast of a band he had! This is 17 minutes of introductions and short solos worth watching. The drummer Ronnie Tutt...Damn! This is very near the end for Elvis and it shows but even in his pain he delivered 100%. Never be another one.

    Mike Lavigne Listening Room Window Plugs

    Mike if you don't mind can you share with us how your window plugs were constructed (materials)and do they come out easily? Mine will be for light blocking purposes (theater) more than audio and want to be able to take them in and out easily. I am posting a thread so that maybe others can learn...

    Quarantine Day One

    Well here I am stuck in my home for 10 days or more. I know Mike said earlier to "go ahead and send me home for two weeks" assuming he would listen to music happily for two weeks. Trust me when I say listening to music is about the last thing you want to do, this shit is wicked. Went to ER the...

    Blown Woofer super bummed, no repair available for now.

    We are in a temp living situation right now while we look for a home and I set up a secondary system since my Maggies are in storage. I got everything set up, all digital for now, and was listening to LZ at a low level through a pair of Altec Lansing Model 9 Series one speakers when all of a...

    Ampzilla and Magneplanar20.7 is it a good match?

    This is a possible combination I am considering but have not seen the two paired up. Does the Ampzilla produce the proper amount of current for the long haul and loud levels. Anyone have any experience with this pairing? Asking here as to not impose on Keith's thread.

    Garth Brooks Legacy

    So this was purchased yesterday at Costco, not a big GB fan but it seemed to good to walk away from at that price. 7 180g Lp's and 7CD's limited edition series. Not very limited as mine is 77944 of how many I dont know, but obviously not ever going to be a rare commodity. That being said I am...

    Marvin Gaye whats going on album.

    I watched the documentary Hitmakers. It is ones opinion (as all docs are) of the history of Motown. The part about this album compelled me to go buy it and give it a whirl. Before I post my opinions, I, without links,pictures, etc would be interested in your opinions on the album and where and...

    An Evening of Magic Chuck Mangione Live at the Hollywood Bowl a review 40 years later.

    As a young lad of sixteen years old living in Southern California I remember this concert at the Hollywood Bowl very well. The song, Feels So Good was on the radio everywhere, crossing over to different genre's daily. My "posse" of delinquents at the time contemplated heavily going to this show...

    Frank Zappa Halloween 77 on Qobuz

    For the Zappa fans this is the $hit. All 6 shows for Halloween 1977, unedited, mixed to sound better. The taps run from beginning of show to end of show, all the between song banter, all of it uncut. The band is off the hook here, these performances are mind blowing, the sound is fantastic for a...

    Please give me your favorite top 10 favorite along with your preferred version/conductor/orchestra. Format not to important at this point, just no tape. If you recommend tape be prepared for a visitor to listen. I am looking for the "Heavy Metal" loud, bombastic, percussive pieces of classical...

    Supertramp Live In Paris 79 DVD

    I picked this up used at Zia Records here in Phoenix on a whim and was not at all prepared for what I was about to see and hear. Wow was I blown away by this performance. I am a Tramp fan, have most of their albums, but to see this powerhouse performance with my own eyes was a game changer. The...

    If you could have one album re-mastered what would it be?

    In all your years what one album would you like to see remastered, assuming the source material was there. What album to you like so much, where the music (to you) is so good but sounds like crap. Right now at this moment for me it Rainbow's Rising. This album is one of the best rock albums...

    Audio Show Rooms

    Acoustics aside, is it me or does the United States need to up their game in a big way on the visual aspect of their rooms. Unfortunately at shows visual trumps audio in the first 5 seconds or so. How many rooms have you walked by and looked in the door and just kept walking due to what you saw...
