Best High End Audio Manufacturer???
SPEC out of Japan. Has an amazing line of amps and turntables. Japanese only product. Some of the best sounding musicality I have heard. Impeccable Also love Luxman in Japan. Top shelf internal electronics.Love ATC speakers; also Sony's SS line. 
Hendrix : Freedom/ATL pop festival
Agreed. The promoter sat on this film stock and audio for almost 4 decades. I like that the Hendrix estate is negotiating to locate and license this music. There is always electrifying 
Denon 103S is a real good cartridge
Denon, Shure and Audio Technica make amazing cartridges that do not break the bank. I can't tell you how many ultra expensive cartridges I have heard that under-perform on a cost basis. I use the AT MM ones and they sound amazing. 
Phono cartridge for classic rock
Denon 103 or Audio Technica line of MM cartridges. I stand by Audio Technica, especially if you have a vintage rig.

Nick Cave and Bad Seeds, Live at KRCW, Record Store Day release. Amazing production by Bob Clearmountain.
