I got most of my Classical education, and collection, at Discount Records on High Street across from the OSU campus in the mid 70's. The owner was extremely knowledgeable and had actually auditioned every album that he carried in the Classical venue. Of every album that he recomended, not one single album could be considered average, either for the recording value or the performance, they were all winners. Sadly, you cannot get that kind of Service anywhere today and I really miss it.

OK, you're in a room...

The scenario:

You are in a closed room with Rod Stewart, Celine Dion, and Michael Bolton.

You have a gun with only two bullets.

What do you do?

What do you do?

Answer: Shoot Stewart twice to make sure he's dead.

Have you heard that abomination he just released?

I think it broke my radio.

At least, I hope it broke my radio, 'cause I don't wanna hear him on it again.

Lordy, it's THAT bad.

By the way, I have no known excuse for having on a radio station that might ever consider playing that damn noise.

One cliché that never loses its aptness is "end of an era." And it certainly applies to the passing on October 29 of SME’s founder, Alastair Robertson-Aikman. While there remain a handful of survivors from the original "golden age" of audio, few of them were still active in 2006. AR-A, as he was known to friends and staff, wasn’t simply still active: he was still tweaking his sound system and planning new products.

I just discovered the neurobiology website <I>Beta Rhythm</I>, which is so densely packed with information that it'll take me ages to pore over. The best post I've found yet is this one about sound.
