@curiousjim You mean Frankfurt, I presume... ;o) Glad you enjoyed it! It’s certainly one of my favorite solo Jazz piano performances of those I’ve heard. BTW, if you haven’t done so, already, check out the Live At Maybeck series of solo piano... 
A.I. Rock & Roll travesty
Just what we need... another means of facilitating greed. AI need not take the form of "rebellious" robots or cyborgs to take us out. Just look at the damage that's been done so far via misinformation!  We'll kill each other off soon enough. No... 
Sam Ash closing
I’ve never lived near a Sam Ash but G.C. never impressed me much. Limited inventory and poor customer service have been the norm, in my experience. I once went into my local store and told them I was shopping for a short-scale electric. The respon...

"I’ve Got Your Love" from Boz Scaggs "Come On Home". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ia15RLRpCo&list=OLAK5uy_nHjoCyyKJVGBc7i4cD8b4bmqpyIxVLm2w The whole album is excellent -- musically and (to my ears, at east) sonically. It’s one of my fav... 
Those rare albums that are great on first listen.
@chrisoshea Not unusual at all for me to love an album at first listen…. 95% of my favorites I loved at first play; Good to know I’m not the only one for whom this is not only not a "rare" occurrence but the norm!

Why even bother?
There's a certain guitar repairman I've been trying to contact and he simply isn't responding to my texts, phone messages.  Why not? Could be a variety of reasons. What you're experiencing is not unique to Audiogon or audio. It's simply part of de...
