My first time in this room I listened to the rock classic Tommy by the Who, it took up two tapes, I listened to both tapes start to finish. The room was packed but nobody moved, the band was all there in their proper positions with Roger singing directly in front of me. Not a bit of grain, strain, or compression you hear on digital. I have various LP pressings of Tommy but they don't sound like that tape did. I found myself back in this room more than any room at the show and listened to countless tapes, I didn't hear anything that wasn't just spellbinding! Classical. Jazz, and plenty of rock, great job says me.
