In the Thread: A great article from Peter Qvortrup
Post Subject: The Sant Peter!Posted by Romy the Cat on: 3/13/2018
Well, first of all I am not completely agree with this Peter’s
statement that “improving absolute quality had largely evaporated by 1965”. There
is “some” accuracy in it but as a generalist I feel it is not correct. Some people might say that jazz is dead from
mind 50s, it is and it is not. So, I let Peter with his statement to escape…
The second of all is the most important. What I think is
very ironic is that the statement above came from a person who pretty much
emblematic for “marketing men running audio business”. Particularly the Mr. Qvortrup’s
personally who is embodiment of industry worse, to the point that is pretty
much universally hated by his own colleges and not without reasons. This is a
very ugly nature of the industry. Most of the industry participants are cultural
retards and drop out from others failed fields. Peter Qvortrup on another hand
is superbly refined in musical and cultural perspective (big rarity) but as
most of the industry members he is a douchebag to a point that the douchebag of
his caliber do not sit with him at the same table.
What is absolutely brilliant in Peter observation is the
part that it was “unnoticed by both the audio press and buying public.” The statement
absolutely accurate but what foxy Mr. Qvortrup forgot to mention that since 1965
the audio press was forking for Qvortrups, he literally has them on payroll.
Each time he pays his bills it was uninformed “buying public” aroused by “unnoticed…audio
press” paid for this bill.
So, I would recommend to provide some kind of weaver in the begin
of the article with acknowledgment where he see himself in all of it.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
