Wife caught Richard Thompson in the mid-80's. Changed a broken string during a tune and never stopped.  
Favourite Guitarists
Good lists. I agree with just about all of this. Two names I didn't see were Roy Clark and Danny Gatton.   
Pass Labs Speaker Choices
XA 30.8, Backert 1.3 Rhumba Extreme, A/N AN-K SPe. Similar setup to MWood and I too listen all day.  
What's your favorite lyric from a song?
Two degrees in be-bop. A Phd in swing. He's the master of rhythm. He's the rock 'n roll king.     -Lowell George  
Does a higher gauge electrical wire impact voltage level?
The answer is "no." Wattage can be affected by gauge size but not voltage.  
RIP Christine McVie
Two songs she wrote I always loved: "Spare Me A Little Of Your Love" from Bare Trees, and "Why" from Mystery To Me  
Help recommend a good tube preamp
+2 for Backert Labs. Outstanding piece of equipment.  
Folk/Rock choices that are well recorded
My copy of Hobo's Lullaby is pretty decent. An older pressing.  
Car songs
Runnin' Down A Dream  
Audio Note DAC Owners- please share your thoughts
Please forgive if I've missed this in the thread: What kind of front ends do you use? Digital only or combined with physical media (CD)? I ask because if the latter consider an investment in A/N's transports ahead of the DAC. It will surprise you.  
Danny Gatton
I remember hearing a story once about some aspiring musician hoping to make it in Nashville. He walks into a hotel lobby and here's this guy just sitting on the floor playing his guitar. It almost made the guy leave town.  
Suggest one obsure album we all should hear
"All The King's Men" - A tribute to Scotty Moore and DJ Fontana  
Owning Up To It
Agreed. Boxer12's submission best symbolizes this whole thread. That video was awful.  
Owning Up To It
WTMS: Content appreciated as intended. As far as I'm concerned, it all contributes to the potty (I mean posterity).

Wish I had a dollar for every Dylan concert story I heard like that.
