Unless you want to hear a steady diet of Ella, Norah, and Sarah you've got to bring your own tunes to the HE show. But what to bring, that's the question. Do you cleverly go for a "room clearing" selection like Nine Inch Nails so you can grab the sweet spot to dig some Brubeck in the now empty room? Do you bring something self-consciously hip like Sufjan Stevens to show off to your audio peers? How about some trash that will probably get you thrown out of the room yourself like Southern Culture on the Skids?
One thing you shouldn't do is bring your own favorite recording. Once you hear it on a $100K system you're never going to enjoy it at home.
So what am I bringing?:
-Ornette Coleman--"Sound Grammar"
-Yoko Ono--"Yes, I'm a Witch"
-Klezmatics--"Possessed"
See you at the show!
