Jimi was this artist's nemesis. Roy's work on this album can only be described as hot ear piercing beauty. It is a shame that both departed this life early and in such sad ways.

Just got done watching a documentary about Robert Johnson on Netflix.  Very interesting !!  Earlier today I watched an online Webinar with Steve Vai who played in the movie Crossroads.  Needless to say I was inspired to listen to the King of the Delta Blues.

Blue Mitchell "Blue Soul" Keepnews Collection cd reissue.

Nice date. Never been a fan of this type of sound. . . but great music.

It's been a weird week plus. About two weeks ago a substantial loan that I made to a friend ten plus years ago when I was more flush than I am now. . . was unexpectedly paid back. I showed the check to my wife figuring she would have plans for it but she said "hey that's your money from before we came together I know there's something audio you would want to buy."

So I started pondering. Then two days later my PS Audio P10 just went dead. I thoguht it might be the fuse, but I didn't have a spare the right size (I had one I purchased that I thought was right in 6 x 30, but it's a 5 x 20 fuse.) I took the P10 out of the system and tried it on a different outlet and it powered up but wouldn't go through the initiation process. Dang I thought, this is going to be a pain to get repaired and I will hate being without it. So I decided: heck, the P15 is supposed to be better, maybe someone has a used one out there. I found a former PS Audio dealer (PS Audio has recently gone factory direct) with a price on a new one cheaper than anywhere and ordered one.

I put the Zen Line Conditioner in its place (digital only, not enough outlets to add the phono preamp and power supply for the turntable) and futzed around with tubes and "rode the gain" a lot and darned if the system didn't sound really good. Still, not the way it sounds with the P10. In the meantime I discovered that the PS Audio Ultimate Outlet that I was using was the power outage culprit--its fuse had blown. And I discovered that the SD card for the firmware for my P10 was not completely seated and the unit went past initiation into normal operation.

As I had a P15 on the way and the ZLC that I had been using in my headphone system in the main system all warmed up and dialed in, I put the P10 into my headphone system. HOLY COW did that show a marked improvement from the ZLC there! (Admittedly I can't "ride the gain" in this system--I know that would have narrowed the gap). So left the P10 there. . . on Thursday.

And then yesterday the P15 arrived. It's a very cool machine--very much like the P10 with functional differences and supposedly a better amplification process.

The P15 has been running for about 30 hours and is beginning to really sound fantastic. I'm really going to enjoy this as the electrical nerve center of my main system!

So I've been playing about with settings and tubes and gain and listening to recordings that really tell me how my system is doing, including:

Duke Ellington "Indigos"--a rich, spacious recording that I was enjoying on Impex gold cd. Truly a desert island disc for me. Jazz beauty distilled into a great listening session.


Helen Merrill "Brownie--Homage to Clifford Brown" on Gitanes CD. Wow, this is great music, great singing, some jaw-dropping engineering.


Another that I listened to a few times was "The Day the World Stood Still" by the Andrew Hill Jazzpar Octet+1. This is a very modern sounding recording with challenging music that rewards close attention.

My new PS Audio P15 is showing me now that it clearly is an upgrade from the P10. More than a subtle difference. These regenerators are amazing machines. I'm living in a house with the cleanest power in the line than I have ever had, and they still make a profound difference.

Now playing Miles Davis "Filles de Kilimanjaro" Mobile Fidelity SACD

Freddie Hubbard "First Light" CTI/Legacy edition.

Freddie keeps growing on me over the years. For a long time I thought he was a technical wiz but didn't quite feel his playing. That has slowly changed. I get a lot more satisfaction out of his albums now.

Wanted to go out of my listening week with a bang (usually don't get much time in on the weekend) so. . .

Cannonball Adderley Quintet "In San Francisco" Keepnews Collection cd.



Very lively sound and great playing!

Followed by
Miles Davis "Four+More" Mobile Fidelity SACD.



Timeless music. I've bought this and owned this too many times. . . LPs, cassettes, domestic and Japanese cds, and this SACD just slays all i've had before. BOOM. Great sound. And those Tony Williams drum solos!

I’ve started collecting these Mercury Living Presence recordings. I have about 10 cd’s and 8 albums. Some amazing recordings, especially when you consider that they were made late 50’s and 60’s. Bob Fine and his wife Wilma Cozart Fine, led the pack as innovators, using the latest recording equipment and unique mic placement. Their recordings are timeless.

One Silver led to another (easily accomplished as they share a slimline double case as discs do often in my collection). Horace Silver "That Healin' Feelin'." Andy Bey! God I love Andy Bey, a wonderful artist.

The time is now for that healing feeling!

Saw these guys live in Disney last year when I stayed at the Grand Floridian.  They haven’t skipped a beat!!  Nice easy listening and very enjoyable.  If anyone  is curious... go on YouTube and do a search for the Grand Floridian Society orchestra and you can see some live performances.   I enjoyed them so much that I went into the gift shop and bought the CD.

Claudia Villela with Ricardo Peixoto "InverseUniverse" . . . I have neglected this one too long, very nice recording, really mellow and intriguing music.



Followed by Pharoah Sanders "Africa" Timeless Japan cd. It just seemed right after the above.



And I was going to put this back on the shelves but had to listen to it again. Such good Paul Gonsalves features!

Art Taylor, "a.t.'s Delight" Blue Note/Analogue Productions SACD

Nice date with Dave Burns on trumpet, someone who should have been recorded more often.

Miles Davis "My Funny Valentine" Sony DSD remastered lp facsimile cd release.



I've been listening to this album more than 45 years! I have a handful of editions but like this one, which I may have played more this century than others. I'm using this version as it's so familiar it will help to evaluate a new fuse I'm trying in my power regenerator. I love this music!
