Hey Zilch!

[Zilch]

MY question is, what do you listen to, when you pack away the test gear and shut down the lab? What moves you, beyond 'data'?

A lot more guitar stuff; blues, mostly. It doesn't challenge the system so much as it does the soul.... :guitar:

 

[dnewma04]

I'm a wanker... since I don't always get the data!

:lmao:
See. that's where Zilchy being semi-local to you is a good thing. He can interpret the graphs and you can confirm or deny the interpretation. Or, if you point out something bad, he can probably show you what's going on.

He has taken the time to do all that. I'm verrry slow, that's why I'm an artist and draw pictures.

I can dig it.:thmbsp:

Finally you're saying something that I understand.

 

[RayW]

MLS mostly, now that I can do it, Simi.

[Multiple Length Sequence, or something like that, it is.... :yes: ]

Maximum.

Exellent! I was jamming some Tab Benoit earlier and Keb' Mo' yesterday. If you're looking for a great disc that you can test with or just sit back and listen to, try George Faber - Blues. It's produced by Geoff Poor (owner of Glenn Poor's Audio Video in Champaign, IL and a principle of Balanced Audio Technologies) and mastered by Bob Katz (as good as they get). It's recorded live-in-studio and the band is tight. There is almost no compression at all and the sound is amazing. Best of all, the music is outstanding. I run through it every few days.

So what blues you spinnin', Z?

[Zilch]

Maximum.

Yeah, that.

Not so much lately, Ray, but Keb' Mo' is here, Muddy Waters, don't much like BB King, do like Ry Cooder, Sonny Landreth. Legacy stuff, too; Down Home Music is just down the street:

It ain't just that. Dire Straits, U2, Michael Hedges, and a bunch of other guitar, Allman Bros, Subdudes, G Love, Big Head Todd....

 

[marantzfan]

Now for the topper. Vinyl or digital?

 

[Zilch]

There's vintage vinyl here, but it rarely gets play.

[REAL rarely.... ]

 

[onepixel]

Yeah, that.

Now were talking! Ray sent me some great tunes. This is stuff I can relate too!

Excellent! Now, add a little Doc Watson to the mix... :yes:

 

[Fred Sanford]

Yeah, that.

Take a listen to some Ronnie Earl for tasty "blues with soul".

[Zilch]

Thank you all for your interest and recommendations. :yes:

I'll head on back to "home turf" now; here's the obligatory Indignia/EconoWave pic for those who haven't yet seen one....

 

[Rex Everything]

Nice to know there's another Big Head Todd & The Monsters fan here on the board.

:thmbsp:

 

[dnewma04]

Add another if you are keeping a list...

 

[TejasRichard]

try a little Papa Mali

for a little psychedelic/swamp rock sound with a real blues soul. These dudes are the real deal, and sound even better live than they do on disc (unlike so many talentless studio-heros you hear today, they can actually play a whole song w/ out it needing to have the good bits edited together and the bad bits chopped out) they played the KGSR tea party here in Austin w/ Carolyn Wonderland opening (now there's a blues queen, sho nuff!!!) a couple of years ago, and I can't remember the last time I saw a more exciting, guitartastic blues/rockin show!

here is a video of them recording:
