sphinxsix Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I'll start with this both sonically and visually stunning classic : Talking Heads 'Stop Making Sense' (1984) [video=youtube;HFS2oz-i3Ik] (I'm pretty sure there are many audiophiles here who are videophiles too) Link to comment
PhilR Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 That's a great one to listen to all by itself. The video is just icing on the cake.

whoozwah Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I'd have to say Devin Townsend - The Retinal Circus. If I am anything, I am a music lover and a pragmatist. Link to comment

AnotherSpin Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I'll start with this both sonically and visually stunning classic : Talking Heads 'Stop Making Sense' (1984) (I'm pretty sure there are many audiophiles here who are videophiles too) We are discussing video of music performances which we want listen (see) until of the end of our lifespan, right? Desert island implies it, if I am not mistaken. Not sure I would keep interest to David Byrne body movements for such a long period of time. Or no period at all. Do not know. What I would have not far away from my beach shack video shelf is Marta Argerich performances of Rachmaninov 3d, Ravel and Prokofiev concertos. And something else, didn't decide yet, sun is very bright here and ocean waves so big. Link to comment
徐中銳 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Glaspy's new album is excellent. Calling it now that it will be on many year end lists. My summer Jam! I've watched her 29-minutes 3 songs showcase and backgrounding interview when it was released 3 months ago : However, sound recording/YouTube encoding is somewhat subpar. We are discussing video of music performances which we want listen (see) until of the end of our lifespan, right? Desert island implies it, if I am not mistaken. Well, I thought less of Desert Island Discs, more of Holiday streaming. Not sure I would keep interest to David Byrne body movements for such a long period of time. Or no period at all. Do not know. I remember only seeing Annie Clark... What I would have not far away from my beach shack video shelf is Marta Argerich performances of Rachmaninov 3d, Ravel and Prokofiev concertos. Thanks, have noted it down « an accurate picture Sono pessimista con l'intelligenza, ma ottimista per la volontà. severe loudspeaker alignment » Link to comment
Teresa Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 My choice is Jethro Tull - Live At Montreux 2003 on Blu-ray disc. Has DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 and LPCM 2.0 at 20-bit 48kHz. I also have the Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense Blu-ray disc and agree it is very good. I have dementia. I save all my posts in a text file I call Forums. I do a search in that file to find out what I said or did in the past. I still love music. Teresa Link to comment

I can watch just her fingers' movement for hours (listening to the music at the same time of course) without getting bored. A great pianist! BTW ocean waves in Odessa..? Link to comment

sphinxsix Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 @ Axial Yep. A good concert. @ 徐中銳 As for Peter Gabriel - 'Secret World Live' - lots of fun to watch ! Link to comment

sphinxsix Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 Imagined myself on a desert island - I am for a clean experiment.It IS possible to hear ocean waves in Odessa! The so called 'Little Odessa' - Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, NY. I lived there some time ago. Link to comment
AnotherSpin Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 It IS possible to hear ocean waves in Odessa! The so called 'Little Odessa' - Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, NY. I lived there some time ago. I know Brighton Beach quite well, visited couple of times in different years and even lived there once for a couple of weeks. The beach area is very similar to that in Odessa, Ukraine - no real ocean waves in both cases, Brooklyn is not exposed to an open ocean. Nobody will try surfing there, right?) Link to comment
sphinxsix Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share Posted November 13, 2016 I'm going to see King Crimson 'Radical Action to Unseat the Hold of Monkey Mind' today and I hope it's going to be one of the 'desert island' video concerts. BTW such a rhythm section is something you rarely get a chance to see-hear : Link to comment
