    When I watched the Diana Krall "Live in Paris" DVD, I could have sworn she played the intro line to "Day Tripper" during one of improvisations. Did anyone catch this? -Mike...

    Brain Salad Surgery... What were these guys on???

    I finally got around to spinning "Brain Salad Surgery" (picked up a copy on vinyl for $4). I've always liked "Trilogy", but BSS is just WAY over the top! It's a non-stop, self-indulgent, over-playing mess of notes. And still, I liked it! -Mike...

    Who sings this song?

    It was used in a commercial a few years ago. Sounds like an old Frank Sinatra song but I know it wasn't him. The lyric goes something like this: Somewhere Beyond the Sea Somewhere Waiting for me My lover stands on golden sands And watches the ships go by As they go sailing Thanks...

    I just picked up Aimee Mann's "Bachelor No. 2" (pretty good album, BTW), and while I was listening to it, I was struck by how much it reminded me of Michael Penn. A quick flip through the liner notes and I see he plays guitar on many of the tracks. When Britney's "Oops... I did it again" came...

    Good Albums vs. Good Song

    I'm an "album" guy. I'm always seeking good albums. Songs that work together as a collective whole, rather than standalone hits. Some of my all-time favorites are: Beatles - "Abbey Road" (especially side 2) Yes - "Going For The One" Rush - "Permanent Waves" King's X - "Gretchen Goes To...

    Is Sony becoming too big?

    Sony used to just make electronics. Then they got big enough to buy out Columbia records which is a very large portion of the world's most popular music. If DSD becomes the new standard, they could have control of an enormous portion of the music, the playback technology and the hardware...

    Do any SACD Players do DD and/or DTS decoding?

    I was wondering if any of the SACD players do DD and/or DTS decoding on board. That way you could just run straight into a preamp/power amp and speakers eliminating the need for an external processor. -Mike...
