    Buddy Guy with Tracy Chapman - "Aint no Sunshine"

    Great vocals (guitar and peeps), deep bass, nice going to happy hour at my favorite Key West Blues Bar, the world famous Green Parrot.

    Money cannot buy happiness, but it sure can buy a bad **** boat to pull up along side it though.

    Gorgeous!!

    This is a stock photo. They actually sound even better than they look. Only tried out a few different types of music so far. The real test will be to play some organ and chamber music to see how rthey really perform. Listened to some Diana Krall,Allison Krauss and a few classic rock songs from Zeppelin so far. Took a piss break and I come on here,lol. Guess I need to get my priorities straight huh. Back to the music.

    Be prepared to fall in love. Check out the video for "Whispers In A Dream"(Gabriel's Oboe) by Hayley Westenra, this is beautiful.

    Mike, this album was a favorite of mine in my youth. I haven't heard it in years, and I was very pleased to find it at my local used record store last week... :biggrin:

    it's held up well...some top-notch playing there

    I wish this band payed more attention to how the sound is recorded. Although this is one of the better ones both for recorded and content.

    Just finished the Mark Knopfler's Sailing to Philadelphia Album

    Currently: Tool - Salival - No Quarter , which is a great version of the Zeppelin original. Now dont get me wrong, i'm no "Cover" or "Tribute" fan but this one I can live with! Captured the essence of the original while stepping it up a notch.

    Next: hmmm, Buckingham Nicks

    BTW - first post. I cant believe how lively the Polk Audio forum is. What, its a speaker company. COOL! And I understand why. I have a pair of Original RTA12s. Vertical Tweeter version. Original right? I like the x-over mod threads, I think im going to have to try that.

    Nice one. I own the SACD and redbook. I spun the redbook earlier today and it sounded great.
