Bikeboy, thanks for the positive words about my system. Only worry is to keep it all working,, but, just like me (76 YOA), some of it's getting old.

But that's a minor worry, equipment can be repaired or replaced, however, we listeners, sometime there isn't any fix. Just keep smiling every day, as most of the time it's how I chosse it to be.

There's just me and my Dementia affected wife, but amazingly, we still manage to laugh and have fun. And it's so good to think of our kid/grandkids, too.

Well, I've got my exceptional-sounding Paul Birkeland designed and built 812 power amp all ready to go. I better go listen to it, and the stuff it's connected to.

I forgot to mention the stroke I had a couple of years ago, body right side is numb (a good bit of it anyway), but I can still walk, talk and enjoy life anyway. Attitude is everything.

Have a great weekend, and a great summer!

Regards,

Dan

Another great rock band icon gone .I saw The Band,, Roy Buchanan ,and the Greatful dead all in one venue that was over a 8 hour event in Lewiston Maine 

back in. Around early 1980s. Those were the days , when you got your moneys worth a outside event very hard to equal, R.I.P Rob.

There are no better albums in the pop music realm than Music from Big Pink and The Band.  I am grateful to Robbie Robertson for his huge contribution to these two epic recordings and for many subsequent tracks.
