I use Spotify. But What I have done is ripped 95% of my music on to hard drives, and connect it to a Raspberry Pi with a HiFiBerry DAC+ which I can run it to my stereo. It is phenomenal.

Yeah, the writing's on the wall. Time to buy sets now.

Scott, I recommend the Rega Planar 2 and a Nagaoka 150 cartridge. He can later upgrade the stylus to a 200, as the bodies are the same. Or lpgear's new line of cartridges, which are beginning to get rave reviews, especially the Vessel A3SV.

Like him, but in small doses. Like Hovhaness more.

The Ramones is jazz?

Tipica 73 was one of the great latin bands of the 70s. Known only to latin music aficionados and those who lived in the barrios. Greatly underappreciated.

Great, another rabbit hole to fall into....

I thought this was Ron McMaster

It's summer.

interesting. An expansion of Water Babies and Miles Smiles. I'm in.

Part of the problem has been American classical music had little to no support from the media. Grammophone and other British publications have always championed (and often overstating the importance of) British classical music.
