  1. If the house were burning down, the Forte II's would come first, but after that for Led Zeppelin it would still be one because it is a Japanese pressing, the best of what I have for them.
  2. On another thread somebody posted db's and their associated live sound counterparts i.e. jet taking off, lawnmower, etc. Maybe someone could do that here again?
  3. Ah, Townshend patting himself on the back some more.....I submit IMHO that he has neither invented nor refined anything.
  4. My pair of Audio Technica ATH-2's still look pretty much new, this is after spending years in a box in the attic. The leather on the ear-pieces is soft and supple. They sound like I remember them, fairly accurate but lacking a little on the low end. I guess I am lucky with the climate here in north central Texas, no mold on these! Can't remember what I paid, less than $100 I'm sure.
  5. Great Tune Jonny Cash - It Ain't Me. Great tune, but it is Bob Dylan---It Ain't me Babe.
  6. In the night Do you light a lover's fire Do the ashes of desire for you remain Like the sea There'e a love too deep to show Took a storm before my love Flowed for you
  7. Love and hope and sex and dreams are still surviving on the streets
  8. Yes Moon Child. And yours is Epitaph, also from In The Court of the Crimson King
  9. something like that was actually built by the show "Monster House." It was electric powered.
  10. "If it can't be the Frogs, Hook-em horns!" We all dream of that someday when it will be the Horned Frogs.
  11. Sailing on the wind in milk white gown Dropping circle stones on a sun dial Playing hide and seek with the ghosts of dawn Waiting for a smile from a sun child
  12. I would suggest searching the web for reviews, and if you have a high end audio dealer nearby, go and listen to what they have. The last headphones I bought were Audio Technicas back in the late seventies early eighties.
  13. Sounds tempting if I were up in that neck of the woods.....don't want it bad enough to deal with shipping though. Played around with my parents Sony a long time ago, love that big reel to reel sound.
  14. What a killer tune, one of many. Nothing could get your head banging like Heartbreaker, we used to crank it up so the whole dorm could hear it and psyche up for a saturday night. Never a complaint.
  15. Talking to the trees of the cobweb strange Sleeping on the steps of a fountain Waving silver wands to the night birds song Waiting for the sun on the mountain
  16. While you read this, think of the voice of Carson from Team America, as he is dying: Too late for me, must watch end of American football game. You must live on, and guess this tune without me.....so cold.....looks like one way ticket..........
  17. Physical grafitti is good too, but the black and white Hindenburg disaster is my fave....
