| Myrtle Wood Unless things have changed drastically in the past 15+ years items made from Myrtle wood are/were a cottage industry in the areas in which the trees grow. In the mid 80's I drove from LA to Salishan Beach, Oregon and recall seeing all sorts of sta... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Lugnut:I was once told by a guy from Minnesota that Dylan was from and grew up in his home town (I lived in Iowa @ the time). Said he was a quiet nerd who played the piano (not the guitar).It would be interesting to read an accurate biography (if ... | |
| el34 cryo'd tubes Thor:I would like to mention that I was no in no way disrespecting Tube World. I have never done business with them, but if this is Brendon/Brandon's (sp) business, then he comes highly recommended by people I know (& no I did not receive an e... | |
| el34 cryo'd tubes Thor:I just refreshed my memory (WWW search:-) and yes, the original Svet's had a "C" logo. Triode Electronics sells the original "C" tubes (no longer branded "Svetlana") for $60/matched quad. From what else I have read people are having cables cr... | |
| el34 cryo'd tubes Thor:Due to Svetlana USA "possibly" labeling various EL34's (ones produced by different factories and perhaps even different companies) with the Svetlana namesake (this info comes from various user/owner posts on the WWW) feedback on "Svetlana" EL... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Yup, I just noticed that a Cowboy Junkies (Live Europe) CD has what looks to be copyright info on it also (Italian). This one is definately a boot (sounds like it was recorded off a car stereo:-).The OZ CD however sounds pretty good. | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Hi Ben:I consider him to be well below "sainthood" level, LOL, but yes I agree that he was sharp enough to sidestep the obvious problems/obstacles of his chosen work (which is a still quite a triumph, IMO). Also, I was once told that the OZ record... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Ben:When you listen to NS you should notice a consistant crack in his voice on certain notes. This is part of what fed the rumor/fact, whatever it really is.I have always been a fan of Dylan's music, but he also gets my respect for raising normal ... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Ben:Not certain which LP was the one following the accident though seem to recall it was Skyline (sounds like it per his voice). Do they have recording dates on JW Harding? It is possible that the tracks were in the can prior to the incident.The f... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Ben:Dylan's new voice on "Nashville Skyline" is rumoured to be the result of injuries suffered in a near fatal bike crash. I use the term "rumoured" as I have never seen the incident reported in print even though I heard details of the accident @ ... | |
| Favorite Movie Soundtrack "Les Parapluies de Cherbourg (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg)" is my #1 pick even though I have many favorites. | |
| Which artists do you just NOW get? Kurt Weill closely followed by Minnie Pearl. Both great artists that I have come to appreciate with time. | |
| Speaker spikes-worse sound-what gives? You can also try repositioning them "with" the spikes. | |

| New to vinyl, which turntable, etc? Jyprez:LA is a great place to purchase thrift shop vinyl. Many well cared for collections are still being donated on a regular basis. This said, I really don't purchase much anymore as I have not been able to properly clean and store what we alrea... |
