| Whats on your turntable tonight? To Bring You My Love is arguably her best work and, in my opinion, the most fun to listen to in terms of sonics. Agree with you, don’t know how they were able to make all that overmodulation sound so clean, almost natural. Just proves it can done.... | |
| Considerations prior to your next purchase "When can we get together and watch "Logan’s Run"?It was fun the last 25-30 times (lost count) and I’m looking forward to it again."I first saw Logan’s Run in an actual single screen movie theater (remember those) when I was in college. Let’s just... | |
| Considerations prior to your next purchase Yeah, my take is that the OP has his tongue firmly in cheek. Well done! | |

| As you have moved on, are there any items you remember fondly...or most fondly? # 2 would be my Nakamichi 680Z. Also the dumbest audio mistake I've ever made. New Year's Day 1995. Yes, I was hungover but that's no excuse. Was outside putting a new battery in my van. Came inside to switch tapes without thinking to wash my hand... | |
| What do you have on order RIGHT NOW. NOTHING | |
| As you have moved on, are there any items you remember fondly...or most fondly? Right there with oregonpapa and ghdprentice. My pair of Acoustat Model 6. Tough on amps but I’ll never forget that sound. | |
