Wow, what a celebration, and a deserved one. Too bad it wasn't simply a Birthday Bash.

Re: Music: literary or painterly?
I haven't really thought of it in those terms, since for me I don't relate music to either literature or visual art. That said, I think I am more in line with Tom in that I can enjoy music even if the sound quality is sub-optimal (although my preference is always for the best quality possible). In ...

Re: Jazz in NYC
Wonderful review, as usual, Steve.
This remark caused me to laugh out loud!
"... when the Cyrille groove became unshakable and Lake really took it up and OUT. I think he scared a few tourists!"

Re: First Stereo System
I got this little auxiliary tonearm which adhered to the deck with a suction cup and supposedly pulled gunk out of the grooves of the LP's. I think it was called a "disc preener". later I had (still have) a "disc-washer". I had the same accessory and loved it, David. The bristle...

First Stereo System
My first system was, of necessity, inexpensive. However, I saved considerable money by building my amp/preamp and turntable from a kit, allowing me to purchase a superb tonearm & cartridge I couldn't have afforded, otherwise. Here it is, and it would still be considered a fine system by today's ...

Re: Unwelcome comments after a home-improvement project
For what it's worth, I also agree that we could probably enjoy more mileage from a thread with a broader title, but it's not my thread.
Sorry for the comments from your wife, pig pen. Appreciative wouldn't be the first word to come to mind.

Re: Why is Florida so screwy?
That story of Derek Medina allegedly killing his wife, then posting a photo on FB is beyond sick.
It's impossible to explain why so many misfits, violent offenders and such seem to dominate one locale or another.

Of course, "it's all purely subjective", Chazro. That's why it's tough to get agreement sometimes on such matters. I hope and trust that you realized that the two drumming examples I posted were among the exceptions I mentioned. There are others of course, but one of the most interesting, ...

What a wonderful talent, and timely injection of passion for the Dodgers—baseball in general.
