Shanghai'd In Shanghai, and Sunshine both come from this release. Great album from start to finish though. Cant go wrong with the Naz. Loved And Lost, is also quite good.

Just me and the boy home tonight. At 16 he just stays in his room. Music has been thoroughly enjoyed this evening.

Does he share your taste in music?
Yes and No. Music attention span these days is minute. Try not to push what I listen to on them, other than when I'm crankin tunes. Everybody hears it then anyways.:toothy5: I think they know whats good, and if anything like younger generations they'll remember those songs they heard as a kid when they are older. I certainly did.

SLF, do you by chance have a Technics tonearm with the height adjustment collar and good bearinsg you could part with? Or a Technics TT w/ the same arm/compartible as a 1200mk2? Looking for another one

Ron, I might have a Technics parts table in storage but would be a lower end belt drive model (SL something..?) with a simpler tonearm.

So true about music attention span with millennials. Agree - I think a lot of kids recognize what's good - my son is 21 and growing he and his pals were interested in the obvious stuff - Hendrix, Zep, Pink Floyd, Bob Marley - and even looking for deeper tracks. With legal recreational marijuana - I assume kids here will develop better music taste? :) But mostly they are listening to the hip hop stuff - you call that music? hey you kids get off my lawn!@

For me, it was one was yes and the other a definite NO!
Both my son and daughter enjoy a lot of stuff that I enjoy, so it's nice. They also like a lot of good new music that I like too - best coast, tame impala, fleet foxes. We exposed them to a lot of Beatles and also Beach Boys - Pet Sounds when they were little. For my daughter's birthday a couple of weeks ago - we all went to see Love And Mercy. Great film, and not a typical movie about a musician.
