Whats on your turntable tonight?

but...I was spoiled....before I left for school, they let me spend my summer job earnings on a stereo..
Denon Table w Denon arm a $100 Grado, Onkyo A-5 integrated that stayed in class A to 5 wpc ( perfect for a dorm room, can ya dig ) and Infinity Qb with the magic EMIT tweeter.....milkcrate stands, zip cord...

and because it is music related....on way back from bathroom at something like 1 am, walked past faculty apartment door, which was open a crack....could hear Neil Young singing “ Hey Hey, My My”..
knocked on door, Dude answers....has his Phd from Oxford....I ask is that the new Neil ? He says yes. Invites me in. Pours me a neat Rye. We listen in silence. ( Kenwood w EPi ) and I depart about 2 am with just a nod and a word of thanks....

Right on @tomic601

maybe I wasn’t clear though. I absolutely love uncle Tupelo. Their first record is one of my all time favorites. (and Jay’s Son Volt stuff is just very very good). I just laugh though when people think what has been labeled alt country started in the 90s... 

which reminds me of something: the uncle Tupelo fork:  A question that really bugs me.  Why does anyone even like Wilco?  That guy was basically Jay’s sidekick/backup singer.  Jay is really quite a humble genius but Wilco seems like nothing but self promoted derivative unlistenable to me.  I don’t get it.  

@tomic6012,

You have a great memory...in addition, a great ability to put that memory into words that serve your needs.

Ha! I still have my infinity kappas in the basement @tomic. Had to re-foam the woofers and replace the mids. The silicone cones discolored and then finally turned to cornflakes. They still take me back though. Love to blast Rush and UFO on them.

Great memories of school life stereo stories. We are blessed to have so much good music in our lives - both live and right at our fingertips.
