Why does the album name on the cover look like "Octare"

It does a bit, but when you zoom in and look closely, you can see that it is a strange V.

My next album is from Prince.

I started going through this list. Hoping to complete it during the fall/autunm. I suspect that I will have a different top 50 album list by the end.

I'm happy to take a risk, but I know what you mean. There are a few there that I am hesitant about, but things seem to sound different on my new Amp Ultra, so I'm open to being surprised.

Interesting that there are so few from the last 25 years. Are modern production so bad? Or are the "audiophiles" just getting old?

 

[Skull]

Moody and Marsden 2 awesome guitarists

Or the "audiophiles" just getting old?

not only old. lazy

Is this from another list? This and the REM album made me think of "Unexpectedly disappointing albums"

Yes, I am going through another list.

Yeah, that often gives me pause, too. Like movies that are critically acclaimed that regular people can’t sit through more than 5 minutes of. But there is definitely some good stuff in there. I actually already have a bunch of them in my Apple Music library, and just added a few more going through that list. God I hope that doesn’t mean I’m one of them.

Liking well recorded and produced music doesn't make you that type of audiophile
