DizRotus Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Thanks Nismo. I too love the Lake. When I lived in Annapolis, MD people would ask me regarding Lake Michigan, "Can you see across it?" Did they never look at a map of the US? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 back in my coast guard days, on lake michigan back in ’78, rode some 20+ footers. most people don”t realize how massive Lakes Michigan and Superior are. Fun times though--even when frozen. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWSmith Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 ........ok, I just had to share my next play..... A high res. DVD-A and recorded by our beloved PWK back in 1955-57... He knew way back then that multi channel miking wasn't good enough to capture a live performance... I am totally in his camp here ;0) Stereo as well, and a number of years before offered to the masses.......a remarkable recording!! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizRotus Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) Good morning-Enjoyed dinner last evening with old (I know, it's redundant) friends from college. Washed down fish & chips with Sundog Amber Ale from New Holland Brewing Co., Holland, MI.On another note, does anyone have experience with digital downloads of Klipsch Tapes? I see one available online for $16. At that price, I'll use some of my birthday money to try it on my Pono player.Enjoy the day. May the best teams win, which is unlikely these days with the poor officiating. Edited November 14, 2015 by DizRotus 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Morning Gents and a cool one it is for these parts. Some yard work on the agenda and gutter cleaning....again. Gary.......LF brought over a small guitar amp and we plugged the keyboard in and got sound. There are a couple of sticking keys that I have given liberal doses of contact cleaner followed by a spray lube. Neither of us know how to play but it looks good in the music room Made a real easy chicken vegetable soup yesterday. After using some of a Costco rotisserie chicken for salads I boiled the remaining chicken with 8 cups of water and a couple of bouillon cubes. Then pulled off the chicken from the bones and added frozen vegetables. Salt and pepper. That's it. LF likes it too. Could use rice but we try to cut back on carbs. Watched a little football (a rarity) at a place called Joe's Oasis last Sunday. Went there for the wings that were supposed to be so hot they are painful. Got a sample of the sauce and then ordered the wings.....not bad but have beer nearby. Enough about me....what are you guys up to this weekend? Cheers Ladies and Gents 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minermark Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Good Sat morning gang (had to check the day) Fresh grind breakfast blend from SB is the coffee today, out of the Duggans. Farm run to install Contactor for compressor/air. Looks to be a Turkey/avacado/club breakfast, w/BM. 41 and whatever they say, 50? feels like 40. Rain sunday, so they say, not enough to make any difference (Yet). 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizRotus Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) As I type, I'm downloading Klipsch Tapes Vols. I & II from http://www.highdeftapetransfers.com/. I'll let you know what I think of them, Edited November 14, 2015 by DizRotus 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) Morning gang working on the third cup, breakfast burrito down. It has been a nice relaxing morning with coffee and reading about Mr. Pass's creations over at Firstwatt. Wife just informed me she was thinking of going out and getting her hair cut. Normally I don't mind, however she mentioned one of the higher scale salon $$$$ . Chuck I maid something of the sort last night for dinner as well. Roasted turkey breast with brown rice in chicken broth and spinach. Very simple to make and low on sugar, the kids liked it, so that is a win. As for today, I have to finish a paper for my English Comp 2 class. Around 2 we are heading to a baby welcoming party with roasted pig. After that its a low key bachelor party. Neil, Hopefully we get good football, regardless of bad officiating. Edited November 14, 2015 by duder1982 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWSmith Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Good morning/afternoon my friends.............again, thanks for the photo compliments... Today is putting up some Christmas deco on the front pines and shrubs while the weather is good.. DIZ, please let us know what you think of those very 'old' recordings, they sound fresh! I also of the other on DVD-A (yes, they were pricey, but I feel worth every penny). The first one is a great sampler. The other VERY IMPORTANT thing with the first one is, one of the finest recording engineers who was very young that year, and PK took him under his wing, and so this early work is heard on that first sampler... His name?, John Eargle ! He passed away a few years back. Best known for his books on recording/engineering and pipeorgan recordings (since he was the organist I believe as well) orchestral recordings too, and believed in minimal miking, as do I.... He was also famous for his work with Delos records. Enjoy 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akdave Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Zzzzzz... Good Saturday to you. Had one of "those nights" last night - with the one year old who has the stuffy nose, cough and two teeth breaking through. You parents all know the "what's this sleep you speak of" nights. Might be a three cup morning! How long til morning nap? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
