If you could include links with your selections that would be nice. I did find it on YouTube in very good quality. I've never heard it before. I'm actually enjoying it.

I left 7 links in my reply post!

I guess you want a link as @lovinthehd does.... I don't have any like that. :(

? Your reply post was a copy paste with links that don't lead to anything playable... You a don't need to "have" links, you can look stuff up on youtube, spotify, etc. and include them with your posts. YouTube video links work just fine. I found one after a search in pretty good quality.

I appreciate the find (it's a find for me). I will buy this album.

This one has some cool imaging effects. Some of the sounds seem to appear from behind you.

Does this include a 5.1 remix? Wondering how much improvement this is over the original LP?

This thread has traditionally provided a free link to the music, usually via youtube. That's not always available or easily found for full albums. Allmusic links are fine for that if you're a subscriber, tho....but as you say enough of a head start to go find something to listen to somewheres....

thank you for the explanation

it's funny, at the same time that @Pogre was asking for a direct link to music from me, on another site a demand was being made that my posts in the "what are you listening thread" be accompanied with a personal mini review!

I thought my postings in the listening to threads to be very complete.

I take the time to find artwork, with what I listen to it's not always easy, and I leave plenty of information so if what I listen to tickles anyone, they have all they need to find it.

Personally, I never used Spotify in my life until literally a few days ago and I doubt when the free month is over that I'll retain it. Not decided yet. I seldom listen to music on You Tube. If I leave a link to Primephonic or Tidal or Amazon how many have subscriptions where the link would be of value?

You Tube would be the most universally acceptable, I would think few people would listen to an album on YouTube if they had an option so.... what's the point? (To me anyway)

All that said, if that is the unwritten rule of this thread (I checked the opening posts of this and the thread that preceded it, links to music are not requested) I will respect that.

Personally, I much prefer to see the album art than a link.

Like I said, I thought my posts more fully considered for fellow posters than most any others.

again, thanks for the explination

There's nothing "wrong" with how your posting. There's no written rule per se, I was only asking if you could provide a link so I can hear some of the stuff you post without doing a search (I know, lazy :p). I would listen to more of your suggestions if you provided a link. I've found some new music by keeping an eye on this thread.

Speaking of which, this popped up in my suggestions on youtube and I've never heard it before, but I'm willing to bet some of you guys are very familiar with it. It's a little different, but I like it.

Your postings are very complete. I can't believe you take the time to type out the "recording" information.
I like that you take the time to find the artwork. I am trying to follow your lead.
I also prefer to see the album art than a link.

Why not both?

Well, that ain't happening. ;) lol

However, what I am willing to do is tip you to stuff I think may be worth your time investment.

Frankly, I can think of several things I think you'd like based on the little back and forth we have had here.

(I know, lazy :p)
agree :p


I've found some new music by keeping an eye on this thread.
This is why I spend so much time in these threads, a great source of new to me music. This is my least posted in site. (Mostly because out of spin threads the name calling and language is terrible and the site bias exhibited prohibits response.)

Absolutely.I am sure @lovinthd and I are well aware of this piece.

Not to sound audiophool but I never really appreciated this work until I heard it on my big stereo in SACD.

It's copy and past but still takes some extra effort.

Like I said, some of the stuff is not easy to find because I don't listen to much main stream
