| Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too? Though I don't myself consider him a recording "artist", I'll nominate Perry Ferrell. Unlistenable. | |
| Band/artist documentaries. Though not acclaimed for his music, his art has long been "music-adjacent": R. Crumb. The documentary is entitled Crumb, made by his friend Terry Zwigoff. His record collection (shown in the film) appears to be entirely 78's (played on a Lenco ... | |

| Movie/film suggestions. @imatthewj: I liked the story told in The Revenant, but don't have the knowledge required to evaluate it in terms of historical accuracy. One thing I didn't mention was the spectacular scenery in the film. I would love to see it in a theater. | |
| Selling collection directly in the pacific northwest? I received an email from Echo today. It announced the closing of the shop for a remodel/make-over, which will take a few months. During that time they will still be doing online business. The shop was sold to a new owner a year go, but the old ... | |
| Movie/film suggestions. I watched The Revenant last night (my second viewing). Leonardo DiCaprio’s role must be the most physically demanding one I’ve ever seen! I found the film’s music subtle and effective. | |

| Band/artist documentaries. @yogiboy: Speaking of mono Everly Brothers albums, when the brothers moved from Cadence Records to Warner Brothers, they rerecorded all their hit songs in stereo (the Cadence recordings were monaural), and Warners released those recordings on a... | |
| Band/artist documentaries. Martin Scorsese developed quite a coke habit in the 1970’s (I believe when he and Robertson were at one point living together in L.A.), and on one binge overdosed, ending up in the hospital. | |
| Band/artist documentaries. @yogiboy: I got myself two copies of the Songs Our Daddy Taught Us LP back in the 80’s, but they were reissues on Ace Records (a great UK label) and Rhino. The original is hard to find in good condition, and for years has been in my "Look for" ... | |
| Grade Master3 cartridge--Moving Iron Design The drawing of the Decca/London pickup design on the new London site looks very similar to the drawing of the moving iron design in the Gramophone article. It’s the one in the upper right hand corner of fig. 2. The inclusion by the article’s au... | |

| Band/artist documentaries. @yogiboy: Thanks for the Everly Brothers tip. I love them, and was unaware of the documentary. Dave Edmunds and Nick Lowe are big fans of theirs, and they included a 7" EP in the first pressing of the Rockpile album, in which they perform four ... |
