Beautiful lamp and chairs... "From Me - To Me" birthday gifts are my favorite! LOL
I've got a set of those Eames bent plywood chairs (and the matching table) back here in my office/lounge, though mine are all reproductions. I like the two-tone wood on yours, that looks nice.
Knowing the story behind the recording of Rumors, the whisper quiet exasperated “f*ck” at the very beginning of The Chain makes me chuckle every time, bro is struggling lmao
Slightly off topic but pertinent to discussion is Tracy Chapman’s self titled debut album.
This was also originally released on CD as DDD. I’ve had mine since ‘88 when it came out. The recording is impeccable, and to top it off it’s an excellent album beyond the ever popular Fast Car...
Tough bcz I’ve actually got a few for different types of auditioning, but this song by Jerry Rivera is exceptionally recorded* and his band is all real instruments vs synths
*careful, one of his other albums has a not so great recording of it - if you can find it, Lo Nuevo & Lo Mejor has the...
LOL, that alarm clock is the one (repurchased on ebay) I had when I was a kid which is kinda why I wanted one again. The blue LEDs are dimmable with a turn of a knob(pot) at the back. It can get bright, but I've got it set fairly low. When we got wiped off the planet for a few months...
I'm with OP on this one. I'm all for trying to fix my own stuff when I can, but sometimes it's just better to find a trustworthy shop to do the work (of course, that being easier said than done). I got lucky, and scored a great repair shop right here in town when my GX9ES needed significant...
What about Guns N’ Roses? Do they count as a hair band - maybe on the fringe? Mr Brownstone has always been a favorite of mine, so I’ll toss it in here..
I see Mötley Crüe is already in here, but I’ll add Kickstart My Heart as my pick for guilty pleasure tune. At times I’ll pop in my Dr Feelgood CD just to play that one song. Lol
*chinscratch* Does Aerosmith count as hair metal?, because that would open up a number of others to add..
“You took your time with the call, I took no time with the fall”
Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepson
I’m not embarrassed to admit that while I hated this song when it first came out, it is now one of my favorite modern bubblegum pop songs ever. Gotta stop thinking how cheezy it is and and how...
I have a Decca that uses a carbon fiber brush to not only sweep the record, but it also supposedly acts as an anti-static device courtesy of a little copper wire grounding pigtail that plugs into the back. It works great with its wide brush and tracks right along with(and ahead of) the tonearm.
I’ve skipped through the thread and I see both sides here, but I have to say these last couple years I’ve been introduced to some amazing new(er) music - music that I never would’ve been exposed to if I was as stubborn as I am old.
Let me share a few with you all for your own enjoyment (or...
Thank you for your replies, and I understand what you’re saying about it being a significant electrical issue. One thing I have determined is that the entire house is riding on that one leg (red wire in bottom center). The other phase (black wire hard to see at bottom right) connects in the box...
Dude, this makes so much sense now. Thank you for uploading that vid (much better than the google’s flowcharts LMAO) His later example on the whiteboard shows exactly what voltages I’m getting around. I get this now.
