| Help educate Analogue rookie I'm more into vinyl now than ever, and I'm just starting over. My first record was Sonny- hey, I was a kid! Then I bought The Doors. I was the proud owner of a Clarion turntable, worked all summer and bought some more albums. It wasn't until I had... | |

| A Very Long Primer on Record Cleaning Fluids Justin-time, Thanks a bunch. Lots of this is over my head, but I read every word with interest and a desire to find the best way to care for my precious LPs. Your time and effort is greatly appreciated.

| What's your latest "Discovery" John Reischmann's North of The Border. Excellent acoustic bass, guitar and on-fire Mandolin. Jazzy, bluegrassy and totally balls out playing. A few numbers are incredibly sweet without any syrup. Please do yourselves a favor and grab this great CD. | |
| Is Odyssey Power amp Stratos better than Krell? I cannot say much about Krell, as I've never owned any, but the Odyssey Stratos-yes. I owned a pair for a few months. Found them harsh in upper treble and "hummed" in my system. The Odyssey had some awsome attributes- great soundstage, depth, bass... | |
| Top "covers" Of course, All along the Watchtower(which was written by Jimi, but Bobby's hand did the actual writing.) Even Dylan said it. The Bands version of All Along the W is powerful, ripping and on the map.Also, Los lobos version of The Dead's -Bertha. | |
| What music would you like at your funeral? Lil Wing, Hendrix | |
| Best live album you've ever heard? Best Live is Gato Barbierri. I lost the album, but it's something like Live at Montreaux, recorded in the 70s. The audience waited until 2:00 am to hear his band/orchestra from Argentina. Most of the band did not make the flight, so half the music... | |

| Most achingly-beautiful music Django's Nuage. Makes me want to cry. Toots and The Maytals- Take me Home, Country Road. Toots loves his West Jamaica, he does not like to tour for that reason. I consider him right there with Otis redding, Aretha Franklin. Of course, Beethovens 9... | |
