Some say that Vinyl records are dinosaurs that are preferred by audiophiles and producers of electronica. Why would they prefer vinyl over CD’s? What about MP3’s?

Gramaphone (vinyl) record buffs will tell you about the nuance of sound that you get with records as opposed to digital sound. The audio on vinyl can’t be compressed to extremes like with CD’s. And a sampling rate is used to produce CD’s, but the higest rates can’t embody all of the data that an analog groove can. Thus the nuance. Some say.

You have got to admit that the art on album covers beats a CD. At least the ones that were works of art. None-the-less, you get better pictures of the band or singer anyway.

There are those that say that it is really about analog vs digital. Thus the MP3 is King or Queen or the Big Wheel. What do you think?

My first post after my welcome message was entitled “The Big Beat: Do Drums Rule Rock?” Well, guess what? You have a unique chance now to decide for yourself because recently a new DVD has been released by Hudson Music called “Classic Rock Drum Solos.”

This DVD contains historical material that will blow your drum loving mind. Your going to see the development of rock drumming as it breaks from its jazz roots to rock’n roll to rock to hard rock and the beat goes on throbbing into its other various incarnations of “the big beat” as Fats Domino would say.

Here is the list from harmony-central.com of some of the Drummers on the DVD.

Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge), Ginger Baker (Cream), Don Brewer
(Grand Funk Railroad), Clive Bunker (Jethro Tull), Ron Bushy (Iron Butterfly),Ralph Jones (Bill Haley & The Comets), Gene Krupa, Lionel Hampton, Keith Moon (The Who), Sandy Nelson, Ian Paice (Deep Purple), Carl Palmer (Emerson, Lake & Palmer), Neil Peart (Rush), Cozy Powell, Danny Seraphine (Chicago), Michael Shrieve (Santana), Steve Smith (Journey), Mel Taylor (The Ventures), Jimmy Vincent (Louis Prima), and Shadow Wilson (Louis Jordan).

So if you Dig the Drums Like Crazy Man Crazy, you gotta see this DVD and hear the beat.
