General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Like J.Gordon Holt once said

To paraphrase - The quality of the performance is usually inversely proportional to the quality of the recording

That's what's frustrating. Classic example, for me, is Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane over the Sea. In my opinion, this album is a modern classic and it is a hugely influential record, but was recorded like utter BS.

This was probably an aesthetic choice by the band, but it's an incredibly frustrating and stupid choice, IMO.

It's sad, but this recording sounds just as good on my computer through Spotify as it does on my system with "180 gram audiophile vinyl".

I need to start getting into boiled celery female "jazz singers" accompanied by a cocktail drum kit and acoustic guitar.

Such a shame. It
