That Esoteric V-9000 makes my wet :twisted: , I don't think there is a better transport for the lowly cassette anywhere on the planet, my V-8000S is almost the same unit, every test I've read says wow and flutter were unmeasureable with their test equipment. I know I've never heard a finer cassette deck EVER, I'd love to hear a shoot out with that Esoteric and Scott's Tandberg :pirate: , when you get to that level of rigs, it's really just a matter of taste and pride of ownership... Keep your finicky Nak Dragon's, give me a Teac Monster please :santa: , thanks Santa I have one already :cheers: :mrgreen: :cheers:

You were so close.......

For years people would ask who the keyboard player was, NOT!!!!!! When I started playing in the sticks of WI around 74 it was the only one in about a 100 miles. Had to ed-u-kate those there farmers!

He actually wasn't bad. One of the ground crew he worked with was from Tennessee, ahhhhhh, Richard Workman was his name, we kinda adopted him, he was the musiucian, had a Gretsch electric. One of those guys that could listen to a song once, then turn around and play it. Couldn't read a note of music but had an impeccable ear and a natural guitar player. Been hangin around musicians ever since. Seem to gravitate towards em. If i had not started in the oilfield would have loved to been an audio engineer, recording, mixdown type.

And your avvie is a beautiful example of the breed.

I wanted to be a sound engineer so bad. I talked to the guys who did Stevie Nicks Bella Donna LP in Dallas. 1500.00 for 2 weeks. Just to learn the basics. Didn't have that kind of money back then. LOL

Well, the closest I came to engineering was DJing for a few Annual beach parties when I was 18. Girls would have to kiss me in order to get their requests played.

yeah Larr, i had checked it out too, but after blowing out my knee in college the scholarships dried up and just did what I could to make ends meet. Still had a younger sister in school and Mom still needed help so to the oilfields I went.

But, of course the married women were always the best kissers. Most of them were in their mid to late 20's. Any shift-workers out there?
