Popular Post ShawnC Posted January 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2019 All the covers they recreated are terrible. No life in them. To be fair I loved the first 2 albums, then they became too bubble gum for me. I’m talking of course about Weezer Don Blas De Lezo and AudioDoctor 1 1 Computer setup - Roon/Qobuz - PS Audio P5 Regenerator - HIFI Rose 250A Streamer - Emotiva XPA-2 Harbeth P3ESR XD - Rel R-528 Sub Comfy Chair - Schitt Jotunheim - Meze Audio Empyrean w/Mitch Barnett's Accurate Sound FilterSet Link to comment

Jud Posted May 15, 2019 Author Share Posted May 15, 2019 Once a recording becomes available for purchase, it's no longer available in full at First Listen. Let's see if we can buy through Qobuz when availability through NPR sunsets. One never knows, do one? - Fats Waller The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious.
