A discovery
I think its wonderful that you have such a strong reaction to a piece of music/a song, and have the desire to talk about it here!  Thank you for that!I agree, Paul Simon is priceless.  This song started as much less than what it became for the duo... 
Whats your favourite track to play to the non hi-fi visitor?
tom, I share your affection for that recording, and more specifically those two cuts; it is simply amazing, that record.   
Mo-fi Ultradeck owners - popping noise from speaker upon power off
I have that exact TT and do not have this issue.  BTW, I love this table.  Just do.   
An artist I have enjoyed for many years, Julia Fordham
Thank you, which recordings of hers would you start with/recommend to someone (i.e., me) who is not at all familiar with her??? 
Modern Bluegrass
Steve Earle record, The Mountain, with Del McCoury band.   
Gimme Some Truth John Lennon
I have the CD set, and am impressed, John is right there this time.  And the book, well, its worth the cost. 
You can Vote for Most Valuable Lead Vocals (Rock Groups)
zImwig, I think its Richard Manuel.  Not Robert.  In any case, great choice, I place him next to my choice, Levon, and have to include Rick Danko in the top three.

Bettye LaVette
I got it on a CD, and of course its quiet.  And, of course, I love it.  A wonderful recording.  As is the previous release by this stunning artist.  The Dylan one. Oh my.   
Beatles best album and concert dvd?
I favor Sgt. Pepper.  But, I love, really adore, all of them.  No need to choose, or rank.  And anyway, "one man's ceiling is another man's floor".   
Wall mounting on studs
I mounted my TT on a shelf, into the studs.  Was great!  Then, had new siding installed, and the hammering needed for the siding caused the table and the platform to fall to the floor!  Arm broke, other parts broke.  Yikes.  Fortunately it was rep... 
Tea For The Tillerman2
What's not to like here?  Wonderful songs, fantastic singer, beautiful arrangements, new life, I'm all in!  Dylan on his last tour re-imagined Girl From The North Country (as he does nearly every show with nearly every song), and it was magical.  ...
