Is there anything better than live recordings? One of the best (if not the best) live records was “lLive at the Filmore” by the Allman Brothers. Another favorite of mine is “Waiting for Columbus” by Little Feat, | |
Phono Stage Upgrade There is a great ARC Dealer in Pittsburgh. The shop is called Stereo Stereo, and the owners name is Micheal Klein. I am not affiliated with the business in any way. Good Luck | |
