Any favorites for cosmetics/design/how a product looks?

I don't recall the original Airliner serving food, but maybe.

Think a housemate's mother may have taken us to George's.

I didn't have the money to eat out then and though I didn't drink much either I would go to Gabe and Walkers and play table soccer for drinks if I had the urge.

I sometimes have daydreams of moving back to Iowa City, but the reality is that I can no longer handle the Winter weather (the main reason I moved to CA in 1977).

Just found out (Google) why Bonnie Raitt was playing (unannounced) @ the Airliner on Friday March 29, 1974 with no cover charge.

She was a backup musician for Muddy Waters who played Hancher Auditorium the following evening (Saturday).

I didn't see MW, but I did see BR.

Once when I was on vacation "up North", I was in a bar/restaurant/club and this guy started to do a "stand up" routine.....it turned out to be Steve Martin.

ahhhhh, now that system sounds good just looking at it! Although I was a Marantz receiver guy myself, nothing wrong with the Sansui. 

@deadhead1000 Back then my friends all had Marantz receivers and mostly JBL speakers. I was an outlier with the Sansui and ESS’s. I miss the displays of those receivers, intricate and cool! They got a lot of us, like me and you, hooked on audio.
