To accomplish this marvelous project they recruited drummer/percussionist Meir Israel, bass player Eitan Gidron and electric guitarist Yehuda Eder, plus the addition of a number of guests musicians including Haim Romano from the legendary The Churchills.
The first one represents the prototypical Israeli classic rocker drawing influences from rock, classical, Russian folk, gospel, blues and jazz, while the later brings to the table a range of styles including rock, folk and jazz. One of the factors that made this album so influential is the musicianship: the band was led by Hanoch (acoustic guitar and vocals) and Silber (keyboards and backing vocals). On the other hand this was the album that launched the careers of Shalom Hanoch and Ariel Silber who will later become some of the most acclaimed musicians in Israeli rock (still filling venues today). Paradoxically, after its release the band had to split because of the initial lack of success. this last is seen as a great plus by people like me.This is one of Israels most influential albums ever. Though, it still won't have the tactile feel and emotional involvement that vinyl has. and epecially on the fact that HD tracks have a superior dynamic range, no-maintenece and instant playback. but IMHO, once it licks these probs, it might finally bury the vinyl format on most counts. the other great digital format (DAC + PC) that is growing in popularity is still struggling on many fronts. These are just a few very basic processes involved in cd playback (and yes, there are many more) while vinyl playback has only one stage of equalisation/re-equalisation. one can do much better with a vinly player at a third of this cost!
to handle this well, one has to invest upwards of Rs 1L on a cdp. Jitter: most cdp's don't handle this very well and believe me, this is as bad and worse than wow, flutter & rumble. subsonics are noises that we can't hear but they are FELT by our bodies (ever had your hair stand up while listening to vinyl? well, if your amp and speakers are capable enough, you'll experience this with vinyl.)ģ. but, BUT, completely cuts out all the subsonics. The recording process, itself, involves aliasing filters for bandlimiting, the redbook cd format does 20/20 hzt on either side of the spectrum, completely within the human hearing range. Clocking and reclocking of data for playback.Ģ. Filters and Digital to Analogue conversion.ģ. this then has to be decoded at the time of play.Ģ. so there you have it- data is compressed at stage one itself. a process that involves compressing data as well. The music is compressed into binary spirals. In the cd format, one has many such steps at play:ġ. while its true that there is a bit about eqiualisation and reverse equalisation in effect, but that is just one single step of 'tampereing'. it negates all the limitations of the 33.3 rpm to quite a bit. but before i get into that, lemme share this lil analogue secret with you: try and get as many LP's on the 45RPM format. Whether one prefers cd or vinyl is a matter of preference based on which format one has invested time and money in over the years.Good sound,from vinyl or cd,irrespective of the music being played,would depend on the entire chain of clean power,quality of recording,source,amp,ics,speaker cables,speakers,room acoustic's,placement,listening position,lack of ambient noise. Second that listening to a particular genre on Vinyl can be better than listening to the same stuff from a CD or a Flac/Dac,Mac/Dac.One would not only need to listen to all the "genre's",but listen to them on Vinyl,on cd,on a hard disk,on a cassette.before being able to draw any conclusion. The OP 'knows that rock sounds great on vinyl'.Which rock?The easy listening soporofic rock of Eagles,Dire Straits and Pink Floyd?The screaming,wailing rock of Led Zeppelin,Deep Purple,King Crimson and Black Sabbath?The Rock'n'Rolling sounds of The Beatles,Rolling Stones and The Who?The live rock of Cream and Grateful Dead?The blues inspired rock of Hendrix,Clapton,Stevie Ray and Mayall?The protest rock of Woody Guthrie,Phil Ochs,Bob Dylan and Joan Baez?British Rock?American Rock?Rock from the 60s,70s,80s,90s?Male rockers or women rockers? There are two assumption's that the title of this thread makes.įirst that one is familiar with a wide variety of music.Which is usually not the case.Most people listen to only a particular kind of music and have little interest or knowledge of other kind's of music.Before making generalisation's one would probably need to spend year's,decade's,multiple lives before possibly being in a position to venture any opinion on multiple "genre's".I dislike using or hearing the "g" word because it is used too casually or thoughtlessly by most people.
