another one of those killer late 70's purple label Capitol, no initials but likely mastered by Wally or Jay.

Got in late last night after a fun Friday and Saturday down in Portland soaking up NCAA basketball tournament madness with fellow hoopaholics from morning pickup games. Portland is a fun place to walk around although no time for record shopping. Stayed at the downtown Marriott lunch at the food-trucks then walk across the river for the afternoon games. Friday, while watching games in other regions at Buffalo Wild Wings on SW Morrison street, we saw some of the Georgetown team stop in. Josh Smith was not with them - - at 6'10 & 370lbs -- that would have been the end of the food for the day!

Nando.

Yep, the first one is the best in my opinion. The rest are great as well.

How you getting by Nando?
 
What is it with power failures lately? Just quick off/on ones. Battery backup held up the PC and VHS Hi-Fi, but the two pre-amps let out a nasty noise, the Pioneer D-901S required a reset, was rather unsettled and making weird sounds. All good but had to re-cue for recording.
 
Thanks for asking, Derek. A tough 2 1/2 weeks - my dad's funeral was Friday. For the first time, I spent some time yesterday evening, after work, listening to a few records. I listened to Bob Welch's "The Other One." What a catchy album. I bought it at the thrift store for a buck.

Nice sound quality which is a good thing with this title. HuB = Frankford-Wayne mastering, from some quick web research.

Yep, especially the first weekend with 32 games, madness!~ Too bad Wyoming didn't advance past the first round! I picked Wisconsin to beat KU and get the title, but my bracket is so busted I doubt that will work out either. Surprised Gonzaga is in the Sweet 16. Go Zags!
 
I like Wisconsin's chances too. Although I don't know if they can keep up with Kentucky...

Yep. But the great thing with college ball is that you never know what will happen if a team can dictate the tempo and hang around until the final minutes/seconds.
