Any funny audiofile stories???


Over the holidays my girlfriend and I went to visit her former neighbors.I had never been to there home before.We were having a drink and great conversation when the gentleman turned the TV off and put in a CD.We continued our conversation but my attention kept drifting off to the music.It was a solo acoustic guitar.Finally after about 2 songs I interupted everybody and I said What are we listening to?The gentleman told me(Brook Williams-Little Lion)Then upon scanning inside his entertainment stand I noticed handles on his components.Now my interest was really peaked.I interupted again and asked what kind of equipment he had.He had some old Carver gear,but the sound was actually pretty sweet and definetely a cut above mass market junk.From this point on you can probably guess what the topic of discussion was.If you guessed gear and music your right.That night I got a crash course on some outstanding folk material,I didn't even know existed.All of the titles he played that night were excellently recorded.We left that night(I had a list of new CD's to buy)and my girlfriend was shaking her head,and said just what you needed an excuse to buy more music.Life is Good.

Here are the ones I wrote down. Brook Williams-Little Lion-Leo Kotke-Peculiaroso-Leo Kotke-One guitar no vocals-Bill Frisell-Good dog happy man. I bought the Brook Williams and the Bill Frisell.These are tremendous recordings and there great listening to boot. I am sure this is old news,BUT-go to cdnow.com look up artists like these if you are interested.You can hear clips of the songs off the CD.If you like it there are other features such as-what other people who bought this CD also bought.It will then spit out more titles that are usually similiar to this one.Then you can play clips of those to see if you like them.There also used to be a feature called:If you like that CD You'll probably like these.You click on it and it spits out more similiar music.If you have the time cdnow.com is a great tool to find new music.You can listen to new stuff and you don't have to buy. Happy Listening-from the dog who can't afford KRELL.
Clueless, Its time to move brother!!!!!! Or when she's not home pay for a stripper to come over and visit him.Let nature take its course,and the next thing you know they will be moving.(to seperate places that is)
