JSngry Posted August 5, 2019 Report Posted August 5, 2019 Save money and carbon - stay home, drop acid, listen through headphones. And of course, enjoy responsibly. Quote
Dave James Posted August 5, 2019 Report Posted August 5, 2019 Might be interesting from an aural perspective, but not $25 worth of interesting. Quote

Shrdlu Posted August 7, 2019 Report Posted August 7, 2019 I keep meaning to listen to "Kind Of Blue" sometime. I hear that it's quite good. I remember Nikita Krushchev taking a shoe off. Quote

I'll tell you what ... I've listened to it a long, long time ago at someone else's collection and then somewhere else again (hard to avoid it totally) but due to its "ubiquitousness" I've never been tempted to buya copy in any format. Then about 2 years ago I finaly took the plunge when I found a copy in a stack of newish reissues. Gave it a spin, just taking it in while stretched out in my lounge chair - and you know what? It's almost "easy listening" by today's standards. Post-edit upon listening again: Not "easy listening" - make that "late night mood music." Edited August 8, 2019 by Big Beat Steve Quote

JSngry Posted August 8, 2019 Report Posted August 8, 2019 Both! Especially the thinking you've found enlightenment part, look out for that one. Quote
