commentsGoing through the top albums lists of the previous year is always a great way of letting others do the heavy lifting in one’s search for new music.
commentsJust thought I’d dip into a track or two to sample my new laptop/DAC/headphones setup. I never left. That headphone setup is now my new benchmark for the best way to listen to serious music.
commentsThe themes were: Happy: Surely we aren’t in for another annus horribilis? Let’s introduce the year to “Happy”., New: Bring something newly discovered, preferably from this century., Year: An age, an era, a measure of time.
commentsLast night’s effort, while pleasant enough and engaging, was never going to threaten these two crooners. While possibly the eipitome of polar opposites in singing styles, there is something truly other-worldly that glues this all together.
