As human beings, music plays a fundamental role in our identity, culture, heritage and spiritual beliefs. It is a powerful medium which can affect us all deeply. Playing a musical instrument, being part of a choir or in a band, listening to music – these are all ways in which we can engage in music. […]
We are told: For Sale: Live At Maxwell’s 1986 captures the Minneapolis legends (lead singer Paul Westerberg, guitarist Bob Stinson, bassist Tommy Stinson and drummer Chris Mars) for a raucous set at the famous Hoboken, New Jersey club in the winter of 1986. The band had signed to Sire Records the previous year and released […]
Been here for a couple of months and i’m enjoying reading and learning loads. Also i end up sometimes envying some of the kit talked about! I use an all audiolab 8200 setup of 8200cd direct to 2 x 8200p bi amping some Proac D15’s. I’m generally happy with the sound and the performance. I […]

I’ve got the original Rega Planar 3 with an upgraded motor (this was an older upgrade, not the newer 24v one) and the standard RB300 arm. A few years back I pushed the boat out and spent £300 or so on a Goldring 2500 MM cart which now needs a new stylus, but I got […]
If blues music really has a deep deep soul, then this may well be it. If you’re expecting Chicago Blues, or Delta Blues, Johnny Winter and stuff like that, then look elsewhere. This is Gospel Blues. Another sub-genre altogether. If the newly buried could sing then they might well sound like this guy. The performances […]
In a legal proceeding, the burden of proof falls on the party that is bringing the claim against another. “That guy robbed me.” In a scientific setting, the same can be true: “The Earth revolves around the sun” was a radical new idea that went against everything our culture knew at the time. The burden […]
We are told: Warner Bros. Records celebrate Van Morrison’s classic 1970 album in 1-CD, 2-CD and 4-CD/1-BD configurations. The latter expanded versions comprehensively explore the album’s sessions via outtakes, alternate takes and previously unheard mixes. Following one 1967 album for Bert Berns’ Bang Records, Van Morrison made his debut at the famous Burbank label in […]
I was just thinking to myself about the great bits of kit iv’e had over the years. Some i was glad to see the back of and some i bitterly regret parting with. Of the amplifiers i have owned over the years the Beard CA506 pre and P100 MkII are by far the ones i […]
Dave has kindly agree to be interviewed by Howard Popeck for us. Meanwhile he tells us: I first purchased a pair of these speakers in 1977 and have retained my interest and enthusiasm for them to this day, having offered this service for the last 25years. Rebuilds have been carried out for a variety of […]
Martin Kettle writes: Unlike Angela Merkel, our leaders rarely flaunt their cultural tastes. It’s to the detriment of national life Last Saturday I sat in something very close to rapture just a few feet away from Germany’s chancellor, Angela Merkel. But Merkel wasn’t making a speech. She wasn’t giving a press conference. And, although I […]
Howard Popeck … The Synchro was mid-priced turntable inspired by the original GyroDec, but with an inverted-pendulum suspension and a glass platter. It looked dazzling 20 years ago, and it still does today. In the John Michell tradition, all the working parts are exposed, superbly engineered and impeccably cosmetically finished. It has a cast-ring sub […]
Mary Chapin Carpenter’s brand new album The Things We Are Made Of comprises eleven songs that communicate with the plain-spokeness of handwritten, heartfelt letters from a confiding friend; this is art without the artifice. The result is music that is likely to be as powerfully moving as any you have ever heard. The album is […]

Violet Zann There are many, but there’s one in particular that I recently discovered and I’d love to share. In 2012 Brian bought 121 acres of land that were about to be developed into building, and planted over 100,000 trees there with help from volunteers. It’s now a thriving woodland called “May’s Woods”. 15.4K viewsView […]

FROM OUR ARCHIVES Hand-crafted in Japan by Immutable Music’s Seiji Yoshioka, Transfiguration moving coil (MC) phono cartridges have been hailed as being among the world’s most musically honest. This is no accident, since their design has always been guided by two firm principles: first, to extract the most minute, natural musical detail from a record’s […]
