LATEST ADDITIONS

In our move from the 9th floor to the 6th, a box containing a large amount of <i>Stereophile</i> back issues was damaged. All sorts of wildly-covered, strangely-colored, digest-sized issues came spilling out. A river of history.

Today I got <I>The Essential John Denver</I> and a newly remastered reissue of Boz Scaggs <I>Silk Degrees</I> in the same package. Mercy! I got a chill pulling them out of the envelope. Denver and Scaggs together again! What kind of subtle coding was Sony/BMG sending by pairing this dynamic duo? The Seventies really did suck? We're out of ideas so here's two surefire golden oldies? If you thought the George Winston reissues were great then check out these two?

I was surprised to find that we once featured <i>Stereophile</i> t-shirts on a cover.

<I>Gizmodo</I>'s Mark Wilson does a different Blu-ray <I>vs</I> HD DVD comparison. That is, for <I>my</I> kind of difference: audio quality and extras.

A website devoted to exotic (mostly) turntables. Two thoughts struck me: I've actually seen or heard most of these, and I bet if I issued audiophile "baseball cards" I could make a mint.

Just as you thought, we'd like to come up with a snazzy catch-phrase to go along with the new <i>Stereophile</i> t-shirt design. Some ideas:

How anyone was surprised that Britney Spears has shaved her head is beyond me. As <I>Stereophile</I>'s assistant editor, the intrepid Stephen Mejias reminded me, she was brainwashed as a toddler thanks to that malevolent mindfuck known as The Mickey Mouse Club. Add to that she's a piece of unreconstructed white trash from Louisiana, who's now been coddled beyond all description and suddenly head shaving looks like the least of her worries.
