| Bruce at The Super Bowl.... Pretty good, for a superbowl show. At least it wasn't pre-recorded, as so many have been. | |
| Guitar's...what do the audionuts play? Pimentel Grand Concert; Fender Elite Strat, Vibroverb amp. | |
| Why the Blues Really Hit The Spot Blues is not definable in terms of its content, any more than a symphony, folk song or opera can be. It is a collection of musical forms using a particular scale. | |

| My LP couldn't beat my CD, until now EEE3, awesome stuff was created for zillionaires in the Japanese home market, by companies you may not realize are beyond high end, such as Pioneer and Technics. The Technics SP10 MK 3 with matching obsidian composite base is considered by some to... | |

| Opinion on Nakamichi azimuth tape decks please Markpao, sorry, I meant Electronic Service Labs (ESL) www.eslabs.com/nakamichi.htm. Google "nakamichi repair" and they turn up. | |
