Is my CD player shot, or does disc have a LOT of tape hiss in the background?

According to the cover it was digitially recorded, mixed, edited, mastered, etc (DDD) but I have some discs that are old (ones transferred to CD before everyone had all this digital equipment) that don't have this awful hiss.

Is this something creative, put there on purpose, that I'm missing?

Organization: Yale University Computer Science Dept., New Haven, CT 06520-2158

Date: Fri, 10 Apr 1992 05:54:17 GMT

I just listened to Yanni's "In Celebration of Life" all the way through,
uninterrupted.  People have been raving about it, but one criticism I have
is that the pieces are undeveloped.

I don't mean to attack Yanni-- in fact, the very excellence of his themes is
exactly why I was disappointed.  Each piece had such a great theme-- many had
the excitement of a sports theme, and all were uplifting-- but I just hoped
Yanni would do something more with those great ideas than just fade away.  I
felt like the pieces wanted to say more but couldn't.

This was especially true in his opening track, (I forgot the title) in which
he begins with a soft, unstructured sound that evolves into a downright
assertive and triumphant theme that sounds like it could be background music
for the Olympics.  At that point, I was looking forward to Yanni taking that
theme and doing something with it--even just changing key, changing the theme
a little--really using that theme to make a complete thought, but after only
about two or three minutes, the piece just kind of faded away.

Of course, New Age (whatever that means) music isn't going to be structured
like a Beethoven symphony.  But you can still have well-structured New Age
pieces.  I think Jean Michel Jarre's "Rendez-Vous" is a fine example of an
artist who, while staying within the New Age boundaries, finds a way to give
his music real meaning by taking his themes and developing them.  I would
use the same argument to explain why I think a pianist like Liz Story is
better than someone like George Winston.  Jarre and Story prove that you
CAN be relaxing (that seems to be a reason why some people on this network
like New Age) AND interesting.

I'd like to know whether other listeners of "In Celebration" agree or
disagree, and why.  Yanni has been heralded as this amazing artist, but
frankly after listening to both this and "Reflections of Passion" I was
left with expecting more.

Hello.
       Just wondering : is there anybody out there who thinks she/he has 
a pretty-darn-near-complete Glass discography?
       If such self-sure creature exists, does she/he feel like putting
it (the discography, that is) in print?
       If both of the aforementioned cases are true, would it be to much to 
hope for to assume that a copy of that Glass discography might, perchance,
find its way into my mailbox at 911414p@ace.acadiau.ca ? (hint,hint)

                            ***************

       All this is, of course, purely theoretical.
 
I am obviously not suggesting that such a discography is actually desired by
me; nor am I insinuating that someone should waste her/his valuable time 
sending it to me; my everlasting gratitude to the sender is not real either.

I have really tried to comprehend what Klaus wanted to say
through his IRRLICHT album released in the early seventies.
It is definitelly one of the most difficult pieces of electronic
music I have encountered, but nevertheless it creates  a
certain mood when one listens to it.

To compare it with other electronic albums of the time, Irrlicht
resembles "Zeit" and "Alpha Centauri" by Tangerine Dream, but
it is much more difficult to understand.

Similar feelings anyone?

I am about to give a guest lecture to a sociology class at the
University of Virginia.  The Topic:  "Christianity and the New Age
Look at Each Other."  When Writing about such subjects, I like to
talk to the people who actually practice the faith.  So I would
like to ask anyone who would care to answer...

1.  What makes a person a Christian?

2.  What makes a person a follower of the New Age?

3.  What do you think of evangelical-fundamentalist-charismatic--
pentecostal Christians?

4.  What do you think of mainline Protestant Christianity (i.e.,
Methodists, Lutherans, Presbyterians, etc.)

5.  What do you think of Catholics?

6.  What do you think of channeling?  meditation?  pyramids?  Tarot
cards?  astrology?  crystals?  UFO's?

7.  Who or what is God?  Who is/was Jesus?  Who or what is the Holy
Spirit?  Do you think the literal Resurrection of Jesus literally
took place?  What do you think is the meaning of the resurrection?

8.  Do you think Jesus will come again?  What do you think of the
Bible?

9.  Why do you consider yourself a follower of the New Age?  What
do you think is (are) the central tenets of your beliefs?  How did
you come to hold these beliefs?  Are you a member of any formal
religious group(s)?  Which ones?

10. What is your age?  sex?  Occupation?  [Optional, for
statistical use only:  are you single-married-divorced-widowed-
living with someone-under a vow of celibacy?  hetero-homo-bisexual? 
What race do you describe yourself as?]

11. [More optional questions:  What happens to us when we die? 
What makes an individual good or bad?  Do you think that there is
an absolute standard of right and wrong?  What do you think are the
central problems of American and World society?  How does your
faith address these problems, if at all?  Do you think that your
faith is the only way to salvation or self-fulfillment?  Is it the
best way?

------------------

Thank you for your time.  I may wish to quote from this material in
class and/or (maybe) in a later scholarly work; quotation will be
anonymous if requested.  As I mentioned above, sensitive material
is for statistical use only.

This is so true.  I can't listen to Heaven & Hell without thinking of
The last book in the Thomas Covenant series, or vice versa.  I also
associate a lot of music with specific events eg: Oldfield's Five Miles
Out album and travelling between Burnham and Slough on my daily trip to
work one summer, and Jarre's Revolutions and leaving the UK to go home
at the end of a summer holiday.  Can't listen to them without this
incredible sense of deja vu.

Well, I think "GLASSWORKS" is all right... But, with no doubt, the best by
Philip Glass is "SONGS FROM LIQUID DAYS". It is simply fabulous. The work is
in the border between New Age music and Pop music (I accept flames). Laurie 
Anderson, Peter Gabriel, and David Byrne take part in the album, helping Philip
Glass.

I absolutely recommend it!  Enjoy and relax.

        Geeze, in its "classical" form, I believe the first "New Age" group 
might be THE MYSTIC MOODS ORCHESTRA, which were cranking out albums starting 
in the early 60's..

DANGER WILL ROBINSON!  DANGER!  DUMB QUESTION AHEAD:

What grudge has Virgin been holding against the US of A?  Why is Canada getting
all the great early 80s TD stuff (White Eagle et al)?  Was this the result of
a business deal as infamous as McCartney's sale of Beatle tune rights to Mich-
ael the gloved one?(that's another story i know, but it's a parallel...)
Canada gets TD and what do we get?  PAULA ABDUL???  what's the deal here??
This is not a rhetorical question, responses will be appreciated.

Clarification:  This Mortal Coil is a project which features various members
from 4AD bands--they are not static by any means, because they switch from 
song to song let alone from album to album =) but there ARE some characters
who appear more than others, say Simon Raymonde (from the Cocteaus).

There are indeed three albums out to this point, "It'll End In Tears",
"Filigree and Shadow", and "Blood".  "Tears" features the classic "Song
to the Siren" with Elizabeth Fraser on vocals.  There's also Big Star cover
songs on this one.  "Filigree" is a bit longer and my favorite of the bunch,
really dark and introspective (not like the first was a walk in the park).
"Blood" is the newest and most varied of the bunch.  I dunno how well it
sticks together as an ALBUM, but it's wonderful anyway.

I don't know if you have any other TD, but A.C. was the second album they 
ever did, in 1971. For more melodic stuff, I would say, as a minimum, pretty
much everything since Ricochet in 1975. In other words, the only albums you
might want to avoid are:

Electronic Meditation
A.C.
Zeit

*maybe* Green Desert, Phaedra, and Rubycon (although I personally would

Tell me more!  Is she on it a lot?  I.e. enough for a devoted Maggie

I used to dream of that woman, but I've not heard anything of her
since she stopped working with Oldfield.
