One of the most pleasurable aspects of this hobby!


Over the decades I have found that 'discovering' various types of music or songs has been just as pleasurable as the hardware experience..

For example, the first time I heard the song 'Take Five', by Dave Brubeck, was on an old tv show called 'The Secret Life of Machines'.  It was the opening song for the show.  It took me some time to track down who's song this was, and even the name of it.  As soon as I did, off I went to purchase the album!  

Another time was hearing the song  'A Summer Place' by Percy Faith, on the radio.  Again, it took some time to discover who did the song and what the name of it was.  I could go on and on, and I'm sure you have your own special examples....Part of listening to these songs and albums over and over is the memories they invoke within your spirit.

There was always great personal satisfaction in eventually discovering who made those particular songs that caught your attention.  

Today, with smartphone technology all one needs to do is look at their screen and it will tell you the name and band playing it.  With a few quick swipes you'll have it delivered to your door or 'playlist' .

Enjoy the software!!

1. Visiting thrift stores and finding a CDs that are great for a few dollars each!

2. Playing a  CD for the first time and hearing how good it sounds because it was so well recorded.

3. Buying a remastered CD and finding out Bob Ludwig was the mastering engineer.

Very happy with my system, and even more happy to hear well-recorded music.
