    A Decision Has To Be Made

    I forgot to add that I do not have local HD programming yet. I live about 60 miles from downtown Chicago and Comcast has said I can get their HD programming (when available). The DirecTV HD setup I have now would have to add an antenna (gain of some kind) at a cost. I agree with the consensus so...

    A Decision Has To Be Made

    Comcast has announced that HD digital cable and High Speed Internet service will be available in my area in a couple of months. Their trucks can be seen all over our area now.

For example, Eleanor Rigby is stunning with the vocal track centered and the string quartet divided via front channels, but Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds suffers greatly from the 'reprocessing' assigned to...

    King Crimson update

    As a KCCC member, I feel the Live in Nashville Club Release is the best example currently available of KC's sound and Mission Statement. It is pure terror and power and the recording is superb, captured in a club in November 2001. Even the TCOL material sounds, IMHO, better than Heavy...

    Help me out...here's music that matters to me...who else might I dig?

    If you are adventurous and like synths try anything by Klaus Schulze. Long form compositional style. Jim ------------------ ************** "The Music Business is a cruel and shallow money trench...a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs. There's...
