    I forgot how good these album was. I just literally shook the entire house with the first track... Twice, just for good measure! LOL

    If you have some good subs that reach DEEP, listen to the first track (Tiger) and you'll know what I'm talking about. It comes in strong towards the end.

You can select the center frequency and the Q and the unit does the rest. Then you get to play with the remote knob so you can add in as much low end as you want. It was originally created to help recreate bass on cassettes back in the 80's when head units didn't have the great frequency response.

    Long story short, my friends and I all had similar systems in our cars and when we would go out to the clubs, we would blast this album (and many other albums for that matter) and ramp up that Epicenter until our eyeballs would vibrate and blur our vision! LOL Ahh, the good ole' days. It's amazing that my hearing is still in great shape after all of that and the clubbing.
    That's interesting, I never knew such a thing existed. But then it was all bikes in my youth...

    Yeah, that Cure Mixed Up is a great album, and really isn't too much FOR ME in the morning. But.. Mrs. Pony was still in bed, and I like to play that album LOUD I usually put on stuff like that when she goes out!

    I hope they do a vinyl run of this one at some point.

    Lyrics are the ramblings of man, sometimes inspired by The Creator, most often, not.
    But music (melodies, harmonies, rhythms), that's God stuff.
    Always was. Always will be.


    One of the biggest lies ever told was that only certain kinds of people should listen to certain kinds of music.

    Just ordered a copy of this, £2,20 including postage from Music Magpie. Can't grumble about that. Though I note that there is indeed no vinyl of it. Strange.

    If you don't already have "Peace" by Eurythmics, I would recommend it to you. If you like her solo stuff I think you'll like this. Contains the song "I Saved the World Today", which might just be my favourite of all their songs.

    Both albums are great examples of the artists musicianship and the James Taylor was an early testament to the greatness of one of my all time favourites.

    As for Toto well who can deny the talent of the Porcaro brothers along with Paich, Lukather and of course Kimball.
