  1. OK George & Paul, y'all know me well enough to know I did not take your comments as a sleight!  

    With how well it worked for me after I got rid of that ort elliptical needle & cart I was just surprised. Did not notice it at all the last time that floating platter record player was talked about here!

     

    Love the almost @Full Range level radical aesthetics. It's George Jetson all the way!!

    The first thing I´ll saw in the vid that they´re using an entry level 9 cc Project-Carbon Tonearm with an entry level Ortofon cartridge for $$ / €€ 5K ? No need to follow anykind of these new tt tec hype .....

    That tonearm is entry level now?

     

    It was fresh and hot when I got it on my Classic. Can not say if it was the sum of the parts or not but how's DEAD-QUIET for analog background noise with an AT33TG II Dual Moving Coil Microline!!

    Saw M. Jackson live in Cologne at the Müngersdorfer Stadium and left in the middle of the concert ..couldn´t stand it

     

    Had that 80s or 90s record.

    If it had been the Jackson Five up there I bet you would have stayed. Their Motown sound was fantastic!!

  4. Felt awful the last couple weeks.

    New Rx that makes you grow green antennae and get purple polka-dots:emotion-41:

    Love the original version I grew up with, but I've heard it a thousand times. Liked this variant from that eight hour Crossroads Festival on tv years ago! Open it up in another tab ... the whole show is great!

  5. Those two dog breeds are among the best on this planet! 

    Among the most abused also.

     

    People are willful with propagating mass ignorance!

     

    Research what you're bringing home before you do it!!

     

    Chows were bred by war-lords in the feudal far east centuries ago. Genghis Khan kinda folks, to be good fighters and loyal. They will pick someone in the household to be loyal to and unless trained from younger than a month on can exhibit those bred in traits.

     

    Rottweilers are my favorite animal period.

     

    Don't get one from a rescue place when they're two years old. Like bulldogs and the aforementioned chows they are more likely to have had a bad human in their life! Lovable, obedient, protective and strong willed.

     

    Dalmatians need acres to run around, the two above need attention, plus running space.

     

    I've had all of the above for the short and long hauls!

  6. Oldies but Goodies!

    Played one of these at the youtube thread the other week then saw:

     

    "Intervention worked for months with Universal's archive team, scouring the vaults in the US and UK for the best-sounding tapes. Several sets of tapes, including 1970s-era tape copies, were sent to mastering and evaluated by IR's Shane Buettner and Chris Bellman.

    The best-sounding tapes are 1/2" safety copies from the 1990s A&M Safety Program. The Wind of Change and Frampton safeties are sourced from UK Production Masters, while the Frampton's Camel safety is sourced from the Original Stereo Master. These tapes sound sensational, vibrant, detailed and alive. Combined with Chris Bellman's work at the board, and the superbly transparent mastering chain at Bernie Grundman Mastering, legions of fans will hear what Peter and the band really put on tape during this seminal period. Fans will hear bottom-end authority, dynamics and textural details never revealed on any previous edition."

     

    $ not $$

    Thick, scalloped, deep cases not paper sleeves :happy:

  7. Mine's collecting dust lately @Invidiosulus not like those. 

     

    Made some meat sauce & fettuccini yesterday, like everything else it hurt. Today with leftover coffee-milk from lunch it was yummy and the comfort food it should be!

     

    Nice to have a table again, nevermind the canvas tarp, it's still clean & I like it better than flowers!! The camo one is too used to use it for this.

  8. Whew! Two dozen deviled eggs? Glad I'm long gone for sure. 

    Sure you meant Nils Lofgren without shortstuff would be a good show.

    Yea I've talked to him, and I'm taller!

    He did guess why I was antsy, and my hot date did wait on me. The fun that was being 20!

  9. You'll be alright bud... eventually, not sure about me though!

    Too bad that Clarence Clemmons has "gone home" it would have been a better show. Would not go even if free now!
