Old shellac records - Factual Questions - Straight Dope
2005年8月13日 · There’s no way a modern electric stylus with a tracking force of a couple of grams can hurt a shellac record. I guess you already know that an LP stylus won’t work well for playing 78s. The nominal groove width for 78s is 3.0 mils, while for LPs it’s 0.7 mils. To get good-sounding results, you really need a 78 stylus.

Bix - Cafe Society - Straight Dope Message Board
Cafe Society. Eve August 21, 2005, 5:20pm 1. I am reading a terrific new bio of Bix Beiderbecke, one of my Dead Boyfriends*.

I adore Bix–I have two collections on cassette, and a number of 78s (mostly with Paul Whiteman or Jean Goldkette).
Ask the old fart learning to play piano! - Straight Dope
2010年3月22日 · When I was growing up, I always wanted to learn how to play the piano. Unfortunately, we grew up dirt poor. I mean, can’t-buy-dirt-when-its-on-sale poor. So getting a piano was completely out of the question, let alone piano lessons. As I got older, I started seeing a glacierly slow yet steady increase in disposable income. But everytime I started thinking …
What are the easiest and most difficult musical instruments to play ...
2005年3月28日 · When asking about instrument families, you’re further reaching the border of asking the impossible. The violin and cello are, quite simply, are different. The double bass even more so.

"The Devil Went Down to Georgia" - Who was better: Johnny or …
2018年11月22日 · Taken as a whole and not just viewing the fiddle part, the devil’s has a groovy, driving bass line and some some solid guitar work. And while it might be argued that using the Band of Demons as his back-up band might be cheating, it’s the devil for chrissake, what did you expect? Johnny cheated as well by writing lyrics and singing.
What is the origin of your SDMB name? - Straight Dope
2020年10月17日 · I just talked about this in a recent MMP thread: I used to be big into NASCAR racing. I’m not anymore (more on that later). I got my NASCAR fandom from my late father, but I did not inherit his mechanical aptitude. He was a customizing wizard, and converted many old hunks of junk into some of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen. It was his passion. So back …

2023年9月15日 · In a hook and ladder play, the quarterback throws downfield to a receiver, the receiver laterals back to another player, and that player (attempts to) run for more yards. How are the stats recorded on such a play? Let’s say the QB throws 10 yards downfield. The WR catches it and laterals it back 2 yards to the running back. The RB runs 22 yards, for a total play of 30 …
