rok, I think the first question to ask is "are there any stations still broadcasting material I like within my reception area?".  No turner is a bargain if it does not pull in what you'd enjoy listening to.After that, remember to old-timer advice:...

o10, many thanks for that link to the Beethoven/Monk overlay by Brown and Almeida. I heard that performed live years ago by Almeida and Bob Magnusson, plucked, no bowing. It was mesmerizing but it was not recorded and I never found another good re...

rok, yes I believe Hyman is regarded as a very accomplished pianist.  I have a couple of his recordings but they are still packed away so can't refresh my memory for titles.  He has done several tribute albums.The last one was funny.  Ray Brown wi... 
Eminent Technology LFT-8b in Harry's system
