Thanks for this pointer. I’ve heard Streisand before, but not her very early stuff, which is as you point out, much better humored. I’m in the office, and I need to kill time until I get a callback for some important information so I can proceed. One of those structured situations where until you get that piece, the computer doesn’t let you go ahead.
Now it seems like an OK recording. I’m listening to speakers of course, as I can’t do background on headphones, and times like these when I can actually turn it up a bit are few and far between.
“Cry Me a River” is a nice example of when she gets down to serious singing business after she’s already played the audience. She’s way better as a sprout than as a reflection of what she was.
Thanks again for the pointer. Anybody who detests themselves for listening to this has tapioca for brains.
I was listening to Radio Paradise, usually on the global/eclectic, but switched to the main mix. Steely Dan, Bodihisattva came on nice, got me in the mood to switch to the Rock mix. Soon came a couple of songs that I had to rate 10. Every note burned into my head since the album came out. One of the first albums I ever bought. From Led Zep II
Ya see young’uns. We had the best music. The freaking best.
Just discovered Aes Dana (the french progressive electronica producer, not to be confused with the metal band of the same name) and have been digging his whole catalog all week. Spectacular atmospheric electronica that is SKULL RATTLING on Legend EVO.
Have been listening to a lot of doom metal last couple weeks on the 1266 TC. Albums like Dopethrone by Electric Wizard, Holy Mountain and Dopesmoker by Sleep are just amazing. The fuzzy deep bass on dark winter evenings is just the perfect thing to warm you up along with a nice beer or scotch
That’s a pretty cool album, just finished listening to it. Thanks for the recommendation \m/ I’ll have to keep these guys in my rotation. I think “Horse in Thrall” was my favorite, very atmospheric and still heavy. “All the Witches You Failed to Burn” was cool too.
Be sure to listen to the binaural headphone version. It will give your favorite cans a great workout. I’m listening to the Audeze LCDi4 via ROON and the Sabaj a20d 2002 connected to my MacBook. I feel as if my cerebral cortex is getting a firmware update.
I normally don’t listen to classical much but felt like listening to some good old Vivaldi when this lovely variation by Max Richter popped up and an hour just passed by…
