He can surely play the guitar. And finding out how good my chunky turntable with a decent cartridge sounds with the new Forte IIIs I'll look for him when I go to the record store on the blvd tomorrow. Every Leo Kottke album is different but all are a treat to listen to I always make a short description comment as a guide 🎶 Its a good idea to have a sample listen to see if you like one over another 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 Just to break things up A jazzy release by two artists Quite a detailed and intricate recording featuring only two instruments Artists - Patric Moraz & Bill Bruford Title - Music For Piano And Drums @Tigerman you appreciate Jazz and would like this album a lot 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Guess since I started the week with "Android Warehouse" by Steely Dan in the late 60s I'm stuck in the best decade of R&R for several days. @billybob man I've spread the word about these Forte IIIs almost since before I got them, but since in the threads here, also Audio Advisors .com with some excellent AudioQuest cabling. To condense what was said is hard. Compared to 30 yr old Heresy IIs, wonderful bass, better mid & high range field of depth, the new mid horn is fantastic for dispersing an improved driver, tweeter is titanium without harshness. Not the depth you would get from one of the big folded horn Heritage speaker sets yet very impressive for what's sitting here! The entire rig I've got now has been rebuilt completely since last fall. The original system I put together in the early 90s. Loving it, want to get it in the big room but the Yamaha I've got out there is now refusing to give up the ghost. Before my system reproduced music very well. Now my music does not sound as if it has been reproduced at all. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Good evening! looks like you all have been having a ball. Fine music last pages I caught up on. Over at the Loveshack in T-Townwhere my TT is so, while icing down a couple of delicious beverages, finally have Creedence Double GreatestLP to get my Chorus and my rarish 45 wpc int amp warmed. Several things @JohnJ 1st did not realize I guess but, Forte 3, alright. Will look for your review sometime to hear your impressions. As for J Geils, I can recognize MajicMike and Geils but, not in that photo, lol. Saw them in T-Town in 84. About lost my voice screaming at J telling him what to play. Some of us like them early on as party music back in the 70's. May post one I posted here awhile back Next on to a 1 hour ago, JohnJ said: Guess since I started the week with "Android Warehouse" by Steely Dan in the late 60s I'm stuck in the best decade of R&R for several days. @billybob man I've spread the word about these Forte IIIs almost since before I got them, but since in the threads here, also Audio Advisors .com with some excellent AudioQuest cabling.

Full Range Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 Following on with Moraz / Bruford combination before I return to Leo Kottke Genre for the most part is fusion jazz and has a feeling of improv jazz Very very tight and very listenable Artist - Moraz / Bruford Title - Flags 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 @Tigerman May I suggest something in the Jazz genre ( but you may already know about this band ) Bill Bruford's Earthworks These two titles to get you started 1) All Heaven Broke Loose 2) Stamping Ground - this is a live album 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Range Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 Continuing with Leo Kottke again This album will hit a nerve with almost everyone Majority of the material is a theme of mostly about betrayal and death So this would be Leo's Dark album Artist - Leo Kottke Title - Burnt Lips 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Hello Paul..........thanks for those Bruford suggestions, I will take a listen with the Spotify account, I have heard about his Jazz stylings... Meanwhile, I just pulled this out of my library, have not heard in years....... Very good as usual, David Foster at the helm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
