Firesign Theatre.
Anyone here have a memory ?
At the moment I'm playing some games with our ever persistent audio friends at Machina Dynamica. In one of my questions addressed to their current ad, I asked if their little " pebbles" would help regulate the atmospheric extremes around the "Isles of Langerhan" ... Then it dawned on me about how I first learned of this place and how important it was in my younger years in audio. Med students please butt out till I am through with my fun with them. They are trying hard to find it on the Google map as I type. I'm sure that once they find out it will take a Constant Gardener to keep them from taping the bags of pebbles onto people. :-)
Does anyone remember the LP's that comically were used quite a bit for imaging and fun ? In one of the phrases used, someone was returning from the "far flung Isles of Langerhan" and was asked to ... come in out of the cornstarch and sit by the fire... .?
The big speakers of the day (at that time) were all cultist owned and were names like .... The Gale GS401a ... The DQ10 all dressed in yellow in the back from CD and of course mirror imaged.. The ever un-exiting LS3/5a crowd and the newbie bunch with the (don't get their cardboard enclosures wet) DCM Time Windows. If you said that you paid over 1000.00 a pair for your speakers, you would have been laughed out of town. And of course this was all before the horrible stench of the "new" Monster Cable rolls floated like a fog around the Audio Stores..... Ahhh, Paaa...leeze bring back the old days..!! I even miss the smell.
OK, let's test some brain cells... Who was the group that made these 4 or 5 incredible albums... Ha... I'm willing to bet this post stays empty for a year.
