Dolby is junk when it comes to music. It is fine for movies.
I'm feeling a bit sad that Fran was not exposed to live music as a child. We often think of recorded music as something that improves our lives, but if the availability of recorded music enables us to avoid exposure to live music, perhaps in that sense recorded music has turned out to be a way to depriving us of access to music, rather than a method of expanding our access to music. By live music I mean living human beings in the same room with you using their human voices and using mechanically-operated instruments to make musical sounds. Long ago, the first music anyone heard was when a relative sang or played or musical instrument, of if none of their relatives could make music that way, they went to a small, local place where musicians made music. It might have been secular music; it might have been at a church where they first heard music, but nevertheless it was people in the same room as them, and getting their sounds to be heard by those in the room furthest away from them, without using electronic microphones and electronic amplification. Like – voice to ear.
Modern music is garbage!!! I don't care what you put it through. Give me back old 60's music and old car radios, that was music!!!
This was a true Joy Fran. Like we were friends, hanging out. Thanks!
yes indeed….. One Love, Roy
Fran, you describe me and my relationship to "Good" and "Bad" music better than I could describe it to myself. I need music. I hear music in my head all the time. I hear a word, a phrase, a statement and I can almost always come up with a song that I have heard. You where speaking to me and the passion I have for music. Thanks again, only you can bring my thoughts into my hearing.
Music for me atm is nostalgia, and banging beats 🙂
Hi Fran. I like your quirky take on mono/stereo and AM radio soundstage. BUT: Why do we have two ears? (Or two eyes, for that matter) Keep up the entertaining vlogs.
Modern pulp.
– 'yo un'.
– Carpet beating.
– Autotu-hune.
Yet there is real music being made.
My Dad bought a Magnavox TV console it had a turntable and Hi Fi stereo receiver and 2 large speakers 1 on each side. I would run out and by record albums but I could only play them when NO ONE was home etc. Great albums came out when I was in HS. Pink Floyd DARK SIDE OF THE MOON AND LED ZEPPELIN IV and David Bowie YOUNG AMERICAN etc. I was a big fan of DON CANNON (CANNON IN THE MORNING) WIBG🎶
how ironic. I have a JUKE BOX in my head also. LOL
I grew up the same way Fran. Old cars and pickup trucks had an AM RADIO only.. no FM. I listened to .56 WFIL and WIBG to. Single speaker in the dashboard and then Chevy put a speaker in between the back seats in the 60s. After HS I got into JENSON speakers with 10oz magnets and hooked up a good sound system and when my old car died I'd take out the stereo and install it in my next vehicle etc.
you're beautiful fran! much love
we understand Fran. Organized sound energy of the organic kind is quickly going extinct!
My dad had an 55 Chevy in the 1960's with a speaker at the front dash, one day he put a 6"x 9" speaker in the rear and I was so jazzed to hear music in the front of the car and back, that was Hi-Fi to me, I was about maybe 10 yrs old.
