I've got three dual discs that have enhanced stereo tracks on the DVD side of the disc. They don't show up using DVDA Explorer, but DVDA Extractor will list them just not extract them. Anybody have any luck getting the tracks off these types of discs?

Just a reminder for those yourmusic members for whom the price increase didn't take effect on the first of the year: today is the last day to place an order at the $5.99 per cd price. I just got through wading through the entire rock/pop section A-Z, and have got myself a mighty full cart of music. And I haven't even thought about which Miles Davis boxed sets to get yet.

I've got Crash What you yo sugest for his top 4 CDs besides Crash? Cheers Pete

I know Beethoven is deaf, Mozart is childish and partied till he died or something. I failed History 3 anyways.. the RCM exam for music history. All joking aside, what is the difference between those two in every aspect including their lifestyle and music style? Both of these composers are very famous and I know I can go google, but I'm just wondering what you guys have to say.

I'd like everyone to give me their impressions of my remaster of a great 80's song. I'll post the original and the remaster, but not say which is which. Please compare the two and tell me which one is better. Send big files the easy way. Files too large for email attachments? No problem! Send big files the easy way.

Call me latent but I had no idea the master did ANY reggae basslines...regardless I really enjoy this a great deal.....so musical, fluid, and harmonic.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovI1i_LyYkc&feature=related

I found this an interesting read and agreeing with the author on a few points. What a collector loses (and gains) in the age of music downloading - The Boston Globe

Any one else catching Tom Waits on his southern USA tour this year? It started last week. Anyone seen him already? I will be there at the Fox Theatre in ATL. on July 5th!!

It's that time of the year again. One of these days I plan to attend but I'm happy enough to get my yearly wake up call of what's happening in the music world outside of my own melon. Here's a link to NPR's Austin 100. I usually use it to jot down artists I want to try and find streams of and hopefully shamelessly copy! https://www.npr.org/2018/03/01/585356494/the-austin-100-a-2018-sxsw-mixtape

So I've been thinking a lot about how much music you folks have exposed to me and how grateful I am for that. However, it can be a bit daunting to look through the WAYLTN thread for genre specific stuff. So I thought, how about separate threads devoted to essential albums. By essential, I don't necessarily mean your favorites, but those albums you feel all "insert genre here" lovers should know. Let's say, one album per post; say a little something about it too. I'll start off: Sunday at the Village Vanguard-Bill Evans Trio I know, pretty obvious, but if you haven't heard it, you need to. These guys practically defined what it meant to be a trio. The inter…

Thought some may be interested... Stanford's Music & the Brain Symposium downloads http://j.mp/vd2JPa [iTunes]

Desktop experience very iffy due to the anvil of iTunes integration but mobile looks pretty good. Sound quality not so great to my ear?

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/26/arts/music/26griffin.html?_r=1&oref=slogin I only recently discovered his music. He's great.

Just idly wondering if there's a sub-based high-res service.

The Tape Project, wherein they make dubs off the original master tapes with custom built gear and you get albums on 15ips 1/4" half track stereo tape. Reel to reel tape, as close to the master tape as you'll ever get without owning the actual master tape. The catalog is pretty limited, unfortunately.

Another streaming service, this one free for Amazon Prime members. http://www.engadget.com/2014/06/12/amazon-launches-free-streaming-music-service-for-prime-members/ http://www.amazon.com/b/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&node=8335758011&tag=sec2002-20

One constant among all discussions I read on audiophile fora is the back-and-forth between older enthusiasts who have spent $800 on Pet Sounds and younger enthusiasts who have spent $0 pirating video game soundtracks. I think the best way to bridge that gap is to put everyone on a level playing field. If you would, please share some examples of albums you love that were first released before you were born. For my part, here are five to get us started. 1) Ahmad Jamal: Chamber Music of the New Jazz This is a phenomenal recording, showing really thoughtful playing by Jamal. I'm particularly fond of the rhythmic tapping and string plucking he employs t…

See this article [NYTimes] for information on early 'pop' music. Much is available from UCSB. FOR a couple of months now my iPod has been stuck on Stella Mayhew's "I'm Looking for Something to Eat." It's a lurching little waltz-time pop tune, drawled over brass-band accompaniment. The lyric is hilarious, the lament of a gal on a diet who can't stop eating, and it climaxes with a glutton's soul cry: "I want some radishes and olives, speckled trout and cantaloupe and cauliflower/ Some mutton broth and deviled crabs and clams and Irish stew." I can't get it out of my head ? so far, it's my favorite record of 2006. As it happens, it's also my favorite record of 1909.…

What are your favourite disks from this year so far? Mine: !!!, Myth Takes The Secret Meeting, Ultrashiver More that I'm forgetting, but these are the flyaway top two.

Just wondering if there are any others here who have his music. Seems a lot of people don't know his music.

I was hugely bummed at Lala's untimely demise. Now this MOG - Millions of songs on-demand and radio that's just hard to believe ,if it lasts for more than a couple months, could be a worthy or even better replacement. For five bucks a month you get computer access to a library that looks to be comparable with what Lala had. The five bucks is unlimited streaming, all you can eat. For ten bucks, you get mobile device service similar to Slacker, with caching on the device (for Andriod and iPhone only). Streams are MP3 at 320 Kbps, so the quality should be pretty listenable, more or less, give or take. They seem to post new releases promptly, although they don't …
