| Amps from the 1980's -- What gear holds up sonically? Reliably? Jerry, by the time I got to L.A. in '79, the town was awash in coke. It was passed around at parties like joints were in the 60's. I didn't see what the big deal was until one night when I finally got enough of it all at once. I liked it a little ... | |

| FM alive and well here...curious question I would schubert, but don't own a streaming device, whatever that is ;-). Such a luddite! | |
| Pass Labs Hmm. Yesterday I posted a response to bigkidz post which responded to my previous one, and then left for my gig. Today it’s gone. I wonder what I said that was unacceptable? I admitted that I didn’t disagree with the notion of it being considered ... | |
| Dearly departed Music Reference RM9 fearsnears, I should have also mentioned that Roger Modjeski can incorporate the Mk.2 updates into your RM-9 as he restores/repairs it. | |

| What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report I got to see EJ with his original band around the time of Tumbleweed Connection (70-71), and they pleased me greatly. My interest in him soon thereafter evaporated, he appearing to me to be more of an entertainer than an artist, if you know what I... | |
| Dearly departed Music Reference RM9 I'll bet you can get your RM-9 completely restored for less than $2000, maybe much less. Roger doesn't gouge the way some companies do. |
