John Scofield & Dave Holland, Memories of Home was released on November 21, 2025 "American guitarist John Scofield and British bassist Dave Holland, two jazz heavyweights with a tremendous shared oeuvre, join forces for their first duo record, join forces for their first duo record, Memories of Home. Recorded after extensive touring together, the album its something to stick with, as they refine and hone abundant musical ideas in nine old and new compositions—five by Scofield and four by Holland. In the past, they spread their talent in projects by pianist Herbie Hancock and saxophonist Joe Henderson, and co-led the quartet ScoLoHoFo with saxist Joe Lovano and drummer Al Foster."

Hi Dick and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us! The Carver receivers are popular here. Many have them and love them. We have both the owners and service manual for the MXR-130. The owners manual is here: https://thecarversite.com/manuals/mandir/Carver MXR-130 owner manual.pdf The service manual is here: https://thecarversite.com/manuals/mandir/Carver MXR-130 service manual.pdf For future reference, you can browse our catalog of manuals by clicking on the "Manuals and Specsheets" link that's at the top of the page just below the Carver badge. That will take you to an area where you can download Carver, Phase Linear, Lightstar, and Bob Carver Corp. manuals.

Hello ArmorRanger and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. I used a Yamaha C-85 pre, T-85 tuner, and various Yamaha CD players for a while. Good equipment, and I still have them in my storage unit. I should dig them out, clean them up, and see if I can sell them. Good luck with your move to Carver gear. It was a great move for me. Thank you for your service! -
Gary Hoey, Avalanche was released on May 9, 2025. "On his latest album ‘Avalanche’, that was mixed by the famous producer Max Norman it becomes clear that Gary has gone back to his rock roots. But the fact is that Gary Hoey as an all-round musician does more than enough on this album to at least advise you to have a listen. His guitar work is outstanding, his singing reasonable, the overall sound is good, so, it has not been a bad experience." Max Norman was one of Ozzie's producers. This album is a hard rock & blues creation, and Hoey is a very good guitarist in both genres. I'm not really a fan of his voice, but most certainly he wouldn't be a fan of mine, either.

Hi James and welcome to thecarversite.com. Glad you found us. Here is the link to the manuals area: https://thecarversite.com/carvermanuals/ You'll see a window that resembles and excel spreadsheet. Scroll down in that window until you come to the Receivers area, and you will see what we have available. I'm not familiar with the Carver receivers other than what I've read here, so I hope that helps. -
It happens sometimes. Just give the site time to refresh, and the first one will usually show up. I deleted the 2nd post.

Dido, Life for Rent (album) - I wish I would have bought one of these when it was released in 2003. This is regarded as one of the highest quality vinyl recordings ever, and the price reflects that. https://www.discogs.com/sell/list?master_id=97705&format=Vinyl&ships_from=United+States

Four80East, Off Duty (album) this song kinda reminds me of the rage scene in one of the Matrix flicks.

My streaming source is almost exclusively from my NAS, with an occasional stream from Amazon music or Tunein. Streaming from my NAS, I start something playing, usually an album, then I tap the browse "<" in the top left hand corner until I navigate back to albums or artists. In an album folder, you can tap the three dots, and one of the options is Add to Queue, or you can add single tracks to the right of the track listing by tapping the 3 dots there, and selecting the add to queue option. That's also where the Add to playlist option is.
