It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

A Follow-Up Answer To Your Critisisms & Concerns

Guys, I appreciate all of the points you took the trouble to make. I honestly didn't think anyone would even look at that Bluenote board post, much less take the time to comment.

But, I wish assure everyone that my intention was not to suggest that the MUSIC on BN was of inferior quality. Come on - Louis Armstrong's recordings are of rather poor fidelity, but that doesn't stop anyone interested in them from enjoying them.

So, to make a point: THE MUSIC STANDS ON ITS OWN. My focus was on the recorded sound, specifically.

Secondly, I actually enjoy most BN records (I'm amassing gobs of them). I like Gelder's clear, warm sound. My post was more in the vein of critical article examining a facet of a subject, and perhaps deconstructing commonly held beliefs or opinions.

I don't feel that I was disrespectful toward BN or RVG; a critical look at something doesn't amount to flaming abuse. Nor was I complaining. Again - NOT complaining. I was, as I said, offering a critical examination.

"Critical" as in "careful examination"; not necessarily negetive - could be positive.

Finally, I hope that all of us can relax and appreciate various points of view, which, after all, is the whole point of boards like this, isn't it?
