Every year at Part-Time Audiophile, the editors discuss whether or not we should do another year-end Holiday Gift guide. I’m not particularly fond of the idea. I’m not a big holiday person after my early […]
What are my neighbors thinking about me right now, with me playing Lyn Stanley‘s Novel Noel over and over in September? I thought that guy didn’t like the holidays, man he never puts up decorations. […]
We were just discussing Audio Note UK in the Part-Time Audiophile War Room a few days before I left for the Pacific Audio Fest in Seattle. While the brand can be polarizing, I proudly stated […]
When you talk about contemporary jazz in the United States, you’ll probably be talking about New York City at some point. No matter where you’re from, you’re probably headed there to pay your dues and […]
Do I really need a music server like the Innuos Zen Mini Mk. 3 at this point in my life? I’m still pretty old school when it comes to physical media. I have large CD […]

7Ray’s Jazzy Zoetrope is the inaugural release from Pro-Ject Records–yes, that Pro-Ject, the manufacturer of some of the most popular turntables in the world. When I first received an email from the Pro-Ject people, it […]

The Challenge LP from Lyn Stanley is, as far as I can tell, the concluding chapter to this Julie London project–although I have noticed that Lyn’s been shooting a video with performances of these songs. […]
When I received my LP copy of Lyn Stanley‘s London With a Twist: Live at Bernie’s, I got the Super Primo Ultra Edition. Many of you will only splurge on the numbered Limited Edition LP, […]
After T.H.E. Show 2019, I did something that I should have done at High-End 2019 in Munich–I stayed a couple of extra days after the show ended. A good friend of mine called me just […]
Lyn Stanley and I first started chatting through email and social media right after I reviewed The Moonlight Sessions: Volume One on my blog back in August 2017. She’s the type of performer–and there are […]
It seems like I’ve had Lyn Stanley‘s London Calling: A Toast to Julie London on my review pile forever, probably because I’ve known about this project since I reviewed The Moonlight Sessions, Vol. 2 for […]
Part-Time Audiophile readers are probably already aware of our enthusiasm for the products of BorderPatrol and Volti Audio. Since I am new to the staff, I am also new to the distinctive and engaging sound […]
You’ll note that we’re not calling this the Best Albums of 2017. There are plenty of those lists out there, and they are pretty much dominated by this year’s critical darlings with some heavily promoted […]
