Fanatics. My neighbor Art is a capital P Parrothead. Every song on his iPod, which is wired into his stereo system and blasts throughout his house
and outside as well, is Buffett. When he comes over to my place, I change the Sirius satellite channel on my stereo to Margaritaville, just to avoid
any discussions about whether Buffett is superior to whatever it is I'm listening to. The music aside, I have to admire Buffett for making a
lucrative career out of a partying slacker lifestyle.

This is all great music but even more important is the system you have to enjoy these tunes. Are you all using digital or analog???
Nothing rocks like an old school system with heavy analog amps and speakers so big and heavy nobody would even try to steal them.
If you are not sure, feel free to ask for assistance...

I agree. Everything in moderation.
How much does he make a year? For some reason I remember 40 mil.

If you like flamenco then you need to check out Paco de Lucia. Jesse Cook can't carry his water.

I will check out Paco for sure. I have one disc from Jesse Cook. It is his first album self titled. 1995 we were browsing at the Tower Records in La
Jolla and they had his album playing in the store. The store was big and divided by a glass wall. I went to find out who was playing and Jesse was
actually playing live in the store with his trio promoting his album. We got an autographed copy. I do like flamenco.
Thanks for the tip!

If you like Ozomatli check out the B-Side Players. There are a San Diego band that infuses the rythem of latin jazz and rock but leaves out most of
the hip hop element that Ozo has.

When? |
From Havana Moon, 1983.
Produced by Jerry Wexler in association with Booker T. Jones. Great songs including Who Do You Love and Vereda Tropical (Carlos sings with his father
on this cut--rumor has it they recorded it without Carlos' mother knowing it and that she cried when she heard it). Booker T plays the Hammond B3 on
it.
Fantastic driving music!

Yes, and no!
I am an old time audiophile and still have over 4000 vinyl LPs stored in rice paper sleeves with plastic jackets in a special room I built for my
records.
However, a top notch high bit rate Burr Brown DAC can rival analog, especially if it is an SACD or DVD Audio. I am a huge Lexicon fan and my MC12 has
a 192k 48bit ADC for every analog input and a 192k 48bit DAC on every analog output.
Love it all, especially when I am at my baja casa with my original Mirage m5's blasting

Wow, this is really a great list. I just thought of another great song.
Pablo Cruise "Ocean Breeze" Put this number on 15 minutes before the sunsets, grab a cold adult beverage and watch the sunset with this tune in the
background. It will bring tears to your eyes!!

The problem is that few folks understand that and think that if it is "digital", it must be the best. Someone forgot to teach them about bit rate...
