| Food: What does the typical audiophile eat? Just shows you the trouble you can get in if youre not an audiophile. Before I was, I got kicked out of Cub Scouts for eating too many Brownies.--Mrmitch | |

| Who was your first Same as T_bone, Brubeck,but I heard it on my parents radio-stereo combo (and old Fisher). What struck me were the time signature changes, as well as the sound of the combo.--Mrmitch | |
| 'they blew'em off the stage' In 1968 I was at a concert at the Garden State Arts Center with the bill being CHicago as headliner and Iron Butterfly ( go on, laugh). Iron Butterfly absolutely blew Chicago away. CHicago appeared ill-prepared and unrehearsed, Terry Kath broke a ... | |
| Collecting Blue Note Jazz I was very lucky to live near the Record Exchange in Princeton, NJ, in the 80's (and still). Those were the days when you could get original pressings or early re-issues for a reasonable amount of money, and the store was more vinyl than CD. Many ... |
