Re: Do you use music streaming? And what are your views?

i always buy records i like, no exceptions ever, however i do download to check out new stuff (and i don't feel guilty about that). spotify makes this process easier though, as most new ("commercial") stuff becomes available and is then just a click away. no need to manage downloaded files...

Re: General opinion on new songs?

i was at the RAH gig and have listened to the recording quite a lot since then. i think this may be the strongest material since LAGWAFIS or at least LICD. let me explain why... :) i have no problem with references to jesus or fire, it was actually the theme of 'wwj' that got me into sp3/spiz in the...

Re: Favourite live albums

One of my favorite Dylan boots, but the sound quality is poor at least on my version. It's my favorite version of Rainyday Women, but it cuts off after just over a minute. Let me know if you have a full version! I'd think there's probably gotta be the whole show in the vault somewhere, since Dylan ...

i may (probably) have misunderstood something, but how can the two mixes run out of sync? i mean, they are two mixes of the same take i suppose? i realize that, for example, two different delays on the drums would make them sound out of sync after a while, but then a delay is not a typical effect to...
