Never Use the Word "Very"

Never Use the Word "Very"

Apr 06, 2007

I grew up on the works of Franklin W. Dixon and Victor Appleton II, which is to say the Hardy Boys and Tom Swift, Jr., as they appeared in the early 1960s. I've had the same disillusioning experience as Gene Weingarten—except that I also devoured the original 1930s versions when I discovered the pulps collection at Alderman Library at UVA.

Finally, why oldtimers still think LP's are worthy

they can't take on something new, like SACD/DSD. Unwilling to accept the fact, that new is probably better. Same logic on why they THINK old vacuum tubes sound better. It's just plain ole' fashion stubborness. Do they think an old 1954 DeSoto is better than a current Audi/VW with turbo ABS, ....wake up old people. RCA Victor dog is dead, but then 50 cent and hip hop ain't music either, I can't listen to that crap!!!!

Is SACD Dead?

When SACD players came on the market a few years ago, I was hesitant to get one because there weren't many CD titles being released in the format. I thought that I would wait awhile and see if it caught on with the public before making an investment in an SACD player. It seems that it hasn't caught on, as I see very few new titles and almost no advertising for the format. I bought a few of the hybrid CD's out of curiosity, such as The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan.
