The Three Stooges Meet the Oscar Peterson Trio

LOWE TURNS 54: NO ONE GIVES A SHIT UPI MUSIC SERVICE: PORTLAND, MAINE Allen Lowe turned 54 this April. Lowe, who plays music and writes songs, lives in South Portland. "So who gives a shit?" said Chauncey Morehouse of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania.

oh, good, not in the original -

how about the Oscar Peterson duo? (without OP, of course)

funny thing about reissues with improved sound - unless the original was really wretched I usually prefer to hear it in the same way a contemporary was hearing it- gives more of a sense of the original experience, I think -

man: do you smoke after sex? woman: I don't know, I never looked -

damn. Used to see him all the time when I lived in NYC in the late 1970s, early 1980s - always thought he looked a little like Bob Neloms, and Neloms told me people were always mistaking the two for each other - he was one of those guys who was a sideman for EVERYBODY, great player, nice guy -

so that's why he became anorexic -

that's ok, 16 are review copies, the other goes to Night Lights -

where's the dropout? I can fix it very easily, no kidding - no one would even notice -

I think the warmth issue is related to conversions from A to D - as in the first stage, I have found you can decrease the noise and INCREASE the presence and highs - if you know what you are doing - but most engineers haven't a clue -

I did spot John McCain at the recent Jonas Brothers concert -

78s sound better played on modern turntables - like the famed Audio Technica (can't remember the model number) - or a good audiophile one (I use a VPI) - remember that old speakers were problematic as well (too much bass, probably why it was prominent) - but Chris is absolutely right about many CDs from 78, though the early ones were ALSO marred by horrific Analog to Digital transfers - with 78s, as with everything else, also, condition is the most important thing - the best transfer engineers in this respect were Nick Perls (from Yazoo, I think Chris knew him) and Carl Seltzer (did some Folkways stuff, also things for the notorious Rosetta Weitz) - and of course Joh R.T. Davies. All those guys are dead now, but there are still people around, like Dog Pomeroy or Seth Winner or Steve Lasker that can do it right - also that guy who posted here briefly, from Britian (kind of hit and run; plugged his stuff and than split) - EQ and EQ curve, by the way, is also important, as are monitors, which can grossly distort what an engineer is hearing and how he resolves it - that's why, when I used to do this for a living, I invested in the world's greatest speakers (a pair of humongous Bryston's Labs) and a good digital EQ program -

just ordered "The Last Camel in Paris" - it better be good, 1.75

4.09 in Maine - not a big problem, as I really don't feel like going anywhere -
