Seas I think out of Sweden or something?

If I’m listening to a live performance (think jazz trio) I simply want it to sound as if the musicians are in the room playing. As if I’m on stage as well along with them. If I’m in another room that it sounds as if the band is in the other room, not a stereo system playing. This is why I seek...

I guess… I want my reproduced music to sound like actual music.

Why one would add tube distortion to a digital device is beyond my comprehension.

Clem Burke, the drummer in Blondie, died this week at 70. His energetic rhythms propelled the band’s post-punk, disco and rock hits.

My son wanted some classic rock at home today so it was: Best of Kansas Best of Eagles Best of Cream

Only 80 but road life is not easy. More power to him! He did a good show in the 90’s I saw.

Robin is still touring? Holy crap!

Got the crapassitor in today and... it still doesn't turn. Noticed something odd- the neon bulb is dimly lit as soon as it's plugged in and goes brighter when the switch is turned "on". The motor is a bit stiff to turn too- I wonder if it hasn't melted insulation inside... maybe a lightning...

Cabo Uno, please.
