[Dixielandjazz] LIVE vs STUDIO

[GWW174 at aol.com]

Have to put in my 2 cents worth...
To this listener there is something about LIVE music which does not captured 
in the studio.  To me, listening to a studio CD is like listening to 'canned 
music' which IT IS for sure.  Something 'happens' in a live performance... 
maybe it is the ambience combined with an 'ease' in the musician's demeanor or 
performance....... the 'hand-offs' from one musician to another seem smoother and 
more relaxed... the 'riffs' are better... there is just 'something' which 
this non-musician cannot define but methinks that most listeners prefer listening 
to 'live' or 'recorded live' music as opposed to 'perfect' music created in a 
studio.
 
would love to hear feedback on this one.
