@bslon The Busboys! I lost my copy but remember it being a fun LP, haven't heard that band mentioned in 20 years. 

@tomic601 Glad chatting with you too! Goodies await.

John Coltrane - A Love Supreme (Acoustic Sounds Series)

Got to mention a highly recommended jazz released in 2010, but new to me, that I've only seen available on CD; Abdullah Ibrahim & Ekaya ‎– Sotho Blue Fantastic, classic bebop style straight outta the late 50s/early 60s, with a South African twist. Piano, saxes, and wait for it...trombone. Played it 5x this week.

Trombone ? did somebody say…….starting to think you are just a mouthpiece for the top brass….My job is to be the counterweight so ya don’t go ringing the bell

Chris Whitley - "Living With the Law"

Just got my system put back together. I have a double-wide rack, 4 shelves high. A few years ago, I just threw it into the spot it occupies. Since I got the new TT and want to optimize, I decided it was time to level the rack. Six post racks are a PITA to level! Got it pretty darn close. Enough that just a slight turn on a couple of the adjustable feet on the Pioneer PLX1000 got the level perfect. Now I can move on to getting a new cartridge installed on the extra headshell. Have a line on a nice vintage cartridge. Hope it works out. If not, I'll probably go new AT.

System sounds mediocre tonight after being turned off for several days. This system always sounds better after being powered up for a couple of days. Unfortunate, but true IMHO.
