Anybody had a listen to any of the new remastered editions of "Achtung Baby?" I have always felt that this album should have a little bit more on the top end (provided it's *supposed* to be there
I watched the entire film last night and while I cannot compare it to the previous DVD incarnations, I was pleasantly surprised. Granted, I set the bar pretty low and while things started out a tad rough (with Billy Crystal typing away at his keyboard during the opening credits), it cleans up...
WOW, this is GREAT news! PF on Blu-ray? AMAZING indeed. EDIT: (SEE POST #5 for full details)

Figured it was high time this got a thread of it's own. This thing sounds really friggin' sweet, nice to see a respected artist embrace the technology. http://damnthetorpedoes.tompetty.com/index.html The Blu-ray version of the album will be released on a high-resolution audio Blu-ray...

Never really been a big fan of the band, but as a huge music fan, I respect them. Too bad they can't get along but it's been a 40 year journey.
The band just released (leaked, in a way) the entire album on Youtube:

WOW, what a band...Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Foo Fighters) on drums, Josh Homme (Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age) and John Paul Jones (needless to say but LedZep). These tunes rock, can't wait to...
I was heading in to pick up some other CDs when, to my surprise, they had a TON of Beatles CDs on the end caps. However, they were all of the stereo remasters only. At that point, I heard a customer telling one of the stocking girls that was working that they were not supposed to be put out...
Does anybody have any firsthand experience with the 2009 Universal Rolling Stones remasters? I decided to pick up "Some Girls" at BB today for $6.99 and I figured, even if it sounded awful, I wasn't out a lot of money. However, I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet and have never owned...
DAYUM, Prince just tore it up on Leno...had harmonica playing on a JAMMING upbeat rocking tune. He played the hell out of the guitar too, nice work! Best stuff I've heard from him in a while.
I was searching for another pair of Kimber's excellent "Hero" interconnects and to my surprise, it appears as though these guys have gone WAY up in price. I seem to remember a new 2M pair going for around $210 (with WBT 0144 connectors) a few years back...now they're $350! Anyone know what gives...
I've got this one sitting downstairs in my HT room, but won't open it until I see some reviews. From what I read, The Mask (also from New Line) had an obscene amount of DNR so I'm somewhat reluctant to break the plastic. I'm not expecting anything revelatory, but definitely wanna see an upgrade...
I was really surprised to not see anything about this movie here. I just finished watching the Blu-ray and it was fantastic from beginning to end. I won't spoil it except to say it's a laugh riot and to expect the unexpected. There are big names, cameos and surprises galore. There is some mild...

If you like old school Metallica (the albums before "The Black Album"), you're in for a treat. This ENTIRE album is in the vein of "Puppets" and "Justice" which is what we've all been waiting for. I've been listening to it for about a week now and it is absolutely infectious. It's one to put on...
Absolutely riveting read...taken from These Days Continue - Powered by vBulletin more details on Roi's last day and backstage at Staples There's a guy who is huge in the music industry named Bob Lefsetz. He writes a blog that thousands subscribe to and has been doing it for years. Everyone...
Sorry for the title, I just had to! :D Anybody heard if this one's coming out any time soon? Seeing as how Sony/Columbia likes to re-release this title on DVD (I think I've seen 3 copies so far, including a Superbit version), I would have thought that they wouldn't have missed the chance to...
Ray La is releasing "Gossip In The Grain" on 10/14. The first single ("Let It Be Me") is available below in a pretty low-res 96kbps MP3, but it's decent enough. Sounds pretty good to these ears. He's also set to go on tour. If you have a chance go see him. It's a pretty mellow show, but it is...
Great news, I just came across this on Music Direct's website: Faith No More - Angel Dust - Gold CD Looks like it's being released tomorrow...WHOO HOO!!! Product Details New Numbered Limited Edition Mini-LP-Style Packaging! * Peaked at #10 on the Billboard 200 chart *...
For those not familiar with JM's work, this release is a great introduction to it! You get an acoustic performance with JM, Robbie McIntosh (guitarist from The Pretenders) and David Ryan Harris (a great solo artist in his own right), followed by a performance from the John Mayer Trio, a power...
I'm really looking forward to this one...it's already generating some great reviews: antiMusic.com: Aimee Mann - @#%&! Smilers Review Aimee Mann’s New Album: Less Serious But Still Smart | Newsweek Entertainment: Music | Newsweek.com CD Review: '@#%&*! Smilers' by Aimee Mann - Eric R...
In setting up a buddy's 705 last night, I can't seem to figure out how to have say, video from the satellite on the TV while listening to a CD through his PS3. On my Integra DTC 9.8 pre/pro, this is accomplished by having the audio playing and then hitting the video source button, but...
Thinking that I dig most of Petty's stuff, I decided to pick this up. It came out last week. If I had to summarize their sound, I would say that it is a kind of rambling, rootsy rock, much more so than Petty's stuff with the Heartbreakers. The fact that it was recorded in like 2 weeks time lends...
My buddy's Denon 2307CI recently got popped by a power surge (despite being hooked up to a Panamax protector) and since then, some of the assignable inputs on the receiver went a little screwy ie. what used to be TV/SAT is now CDR/TAPE. Anyway, to remedy this, I suggested we reboot/reinitialize...
Finally got around to watching this last week. Much like my experience with "Dogma," I watched it once and was not a fan. Oh well, you win some, you lose some! Selling it for $15 (includes USPS shipping).

On a whim, I turned on SNL last night just as Vampire Weekend was about to play. Holy sh*t, I REALLY dig this band. They played "M79" and I was blown away. I then spent most of the night trying to find MP3s of their stuff and bought the album today. Great stuff...like a mixture of...
With the new year brings a new concert season, so I figured I'd start a new thread. So far, I've seen the following acts: Big Head Todd & The Monsters Gavin DeGraw (for the wife) Wilco Bought tickets to: David Grisman Quintet Mark Knopfler Tom Petty/Steve Winwood James Taylor...
2008 Initial Lineup Is Here! - Bonnaroo - News Articles Wow, this sounds really good. Lots of bands I'm interested in seeing. I was thinking that last year was the last of my 3-year voyage, but it looks like the 'Roo sucked me in again with an incredible array of talent.
In researching a replacement for my Rotel RSP-1066 pre/pro, I stumbled upon this beauty for $1600 MSRP. The feature set looks like the real deal and I've read many positive things about it. Features/Specs: Integra Delivers Powerful DTV-9.8 Preamplifier/Processor Integra Home Theater Integra...
