| Does anyone listen to the radio anymore? Fifteen years ago, WQXR in NYC sold its frequency (96.3) to Univision and moved to 105.9 with a much weaker signal. I live in Westchester, and reception is much worse than it used to be. Streaming is the only way to get listenable sound. I no long... | |
| Buddy Miller on songwriting (and other musical topics). I had the good fortune to hear Buddy and Julie in the then-new Zankel Hall in NYC in 2003. It was part of a series that was "curated" by Emmylou Harris, who was there and joined in briefly. A wonderful concert. | |

| The receiver was my intro to HiFi! What say you? Dynaco ST70 w FM5 tuner, AR2Ax speakers, and Thorens TT. Bought from Audio by Zimet | |

| Stephen Stills His playing on Judy Collins's recording of "First Boy I Loved" perfectly complements her amazing delivery of the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XB9A_JB0tL0 | |
| Most amusing album or song titles Joe Walsh : The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get | |
| What happened to all the highend stereo shops Finding dealers that are knowledgeable and who really care about music is rare these days. I found a great shop in Mt. Kisco called Accent on Music. Recommended. | |
| Richard Strauss Recordings A favorite: Richard Strauss - Lucia Popp • Klaus Tennstedt, London Philharmonic Orchestra* – Four Last Songs / Death And Transfiguration on EMI | |
| Great find: A really good streaming FM radio station. I just tuned in. Sounds good, and the program listings look very interesting. Now I just have to get used to the time difference. Thanks. | |
