Oldies that stick in your head...
  @robert53: Excellent suggestion! Also by Dave, his recording of "Queen Of Hearts". His is the original, far better imo than the cover by Juice Newton. And then there is Dave’s partner in Rockpile, Nick Lowe. You could name a couple dozen ear c... 
Music with Titles that get you to think
  As Jason corrected me in a message (the Audiogon system does now not let me replay without jumping through some hoops), it was his mama’s udders Rufus was suckling on, not her utters. First time I ever used the term.    
What is your top sexy song?
  - "It Ain’t The Meat (It’s The Motion)", the 1974 version by Maria Muldaur. - "I’m An Old Cowhand (From The Rio Grande)" (written by Johnny Mercer), by Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks, vocal by the sultry Maryann Price, one of my favorite singer... 
" the best Tweak ever in the entire audio industry"
  Yeah, I saw that video a coupla days ago. I gotta find out if my digital player (an Esoteric) has opamps that can be replaced with those in the video.    
Stand Mount Speakers for Classic Rock that sound alive at lower volumes ?

Oldies that stick in your head...
  It's funny how Del Shannon's music is considered Oldies, but that of The Beatles isn't. They're both from the 1960's. Actually, Del was still recording into the early-1990's, with Jeff Lynne producing. I grew up buying 7" 45 RPM singles in the... 
Music with Titles that get you to think
  Garth Hudson’s "The Genetic Method". That’s what he named his long organ prelude to "Chest Fever" on The Band’s Rock Of Ages live album. Maybe not genius, but about as close as you can get to it in Rock ’n’ Roll. And then there is Loudon Wainw... 
A nice tribute to my favorite living musician, the last man standing.
  @tomic601: Jim, Amy joined Levon for the tour he did when he was still recovering from throat surgery, therefor unable to sing. I got to hear her singing on the stage at The House Of Blues on Sunset Blvd. sometime in the first decade of this ce...

  @slaw: Me too Steve, as well as a few of his with Rita, and her solo. I don't know why I didn't get into them back in the 70's, but better late than never. I became acquainted with Billy Swan when we both lived in Sherman Oaks, CA. He served a...

  All right, here’s another with the same guitarist as in the above video---Jedd Hughes, wherein he talks about an album in my all-time Top 10, The Houston Kid by Rodney Crowell. He also speaks about Emmylou, as well as Buddy Miller, Albert Lee, ... 
Open baffle speakers
  Danny Richie of GR Research designs and sells both OB and sealed box loudspeakers and subs (in kit form). He has used the same drivers in both applications, and makes no bones about preferring the sound the drivers make when used open baffle. T...

  I’ll do that Matthew.   Speaking of YouTube, singer/songwriter Otis Gibbs regularly posts videos of his interviews with (mostly) musicians, many of them Country. Here’s one of my favorites:   https://youtu.be/_7PT_f5G5z8?si=eZSr5nnq6bSDvZfG...
