I gifted myself the newest AC/DC "Rock or Bust" CD. I gave it a quick preview and I like it. There's a Canadian connection as the band recorded this and a number of their studio albums in Vancouver. (http://www.straight.com/music/783121/mike-fraser-chooses-rock-over-bust-ac-dc)

This new AT 150MLX cartridge is freaking spectacular !

And I'm doing something for the very first time on these listening events,
I'm using my AT 6012 LP brush to do some light-duty clean up.
Have always been leery about touching these grooves with any type of cleaning solution.

Cilla Black - Is It Love?
(1965, Capitol) MONO

love this clip of Cilla performing with John & Paul (their song) on a '65 UK show. This and others could easily have been on a Bond film soundtrack.

Boz Scaggs - Middle Man - Vinyl

 

[Northwinds]

These were my childhood friends growing up, we had a lot of good times and played downstairs at Jack's house as a makeshift studio/practice hall. I just found out today that Jerry (the bass player) passed away Dec 12. Crying my eyes out, they were more family to me then my own family

Stuff like this makes you realize that the friends you make in life you need to cherish and stay in contact with because they can be gone tomorrow. He was only 52

So sorry to hear about your loss, Ron.

 

[NavLinear]

Damn Ron - I'm so sorry for your loss of a good friend. Keep him in your heart.

 

[Elite-ist]

That's tough news to hear Ron, especially, at this time of the year. I, too, get forgetful at times about some of my childhood friends, except for two of my best friends who I always keep in touch with. We just take it for granted there will be another time down the road to talk to them. That's not always the case.

Condolences go out to you and all of Jerry's friends and family.

Nando.
