  1. I briefly thought about hooking up my old Phillips table, but my stereo already sounds more or less LP'ish so I bailed on the idea. I can't stand scratches and other sounds on vinyl either. But then, that's my problem of course.

    I know of a good "retirement" home for that old Philips of yours. [;)]

  2. All those skulls. Always with the skulls. You would think that these people who are always obsessing over skulls would conclude from the "death grooms life idea" compassion, but no, they only conclude dissipation, excess, and violence. I'm soooo scared.....! I better go out and get a death fixated tatoo.

    There's quite a long-running tradition in European Art relating the naked female form to the Death's Head. Would have been a good topic for an Art History dissertation (and I'm sure, has been). Sex and death are seldom very far apart in any culture.

  3. Ry Cooder "Jazz" is a favorite of mine artistically and technically.

    Dave

    Mine, too. I've always wondered how much better it could have been (or not) if Cooder and Joe Byrd had gotten along.

    So far, of all this great stuff, the biggest surprise has been "Chester & Lester". A remarkable moment saved for posterity.

    Visited the Salvation Army store today on Inwood in Dallas. Picked up a few LPs.

    each ( a few $1). All VG/VG+. Some with outer sleeves, most with
    replacement inner liners (poly & paper). Many imports. Some
    original editions.



    Someone dumped one hell of a jazz collection. And I left four times this many behind.

    I went back and got 46 more of them. I described them as VG/VG+, but that was mainly based on the jackets. Upon inspection, the discs themselves are all VG++/Mint, and the collection was heavy on jazz guitar.

    Each jacket is coded with the date it was acquired. I thought it was an old price sticker, but the little orange stickers all say something like "2 83" or "6 79". All in all, a fantastic windfall, and very few duplicates of what I already have.
