My uncle gave me his collection of Danny Kaye albums (books of 78's). Grandma bought me a Webcor phonograph... the result is a depletion of my bank account.
What started you on the path to being audionut?
I was 14 and visited by 26 year old neighbor. Went to his room. He fired up his Thorens table with some Chicago running through a Carver preamp/cube amp into Heresy horn speakers.
At the time this was leaps and bounds better versus anything else I heard. I was hooked from that moment.
He also played trumpet in a Chicago tribute band. I use to sit outside on my mom's front steps listening to his band practice as the music flowed out from the open, cellar hatchway doors.
