In Reply to: I think I'll put a nail in this silly recording quality myth once and for all! posted by Don Till on February 19, 2010 at 16:34:22:
I listened to the Patty Griffen CD we discussed below. Simply put - stunning and beautiful.
You say - "loudness wars and pitch correction". I say you've never heard the CD...
I wanted to meet you 1/2 way on this but after replaying the disk I realize you either you never heard the disk (some of her other stuff may be as you say) or your system sucks so bad you can't tell thing a beauty from a pile of S%$^!
