Music 2025

Just got back from National Record Store Day. Snagged three:

Bill Evans : Further Ahead, Live in Finland 1964-1969
Mulligan Meets Monk (Thelonious Monk, Gerry Mulligan, Wilbur Ware, and Shadow Wilson)
Hindu Love Gods

They had a new 4-record box set from Warren Zevon, but it was a little pricey. I may reconsider, if the price comes down a bit.

REM backing Warren Zevon, covering Prince. That’s some good shit.

Been a long time since I’ve heard that, you have now inspired me to fix that

Sorry late.
Palumbo is still with them. The band was great, but he came across as very nonchalant, incessantly chewing gum and stroking his necklace….I mean his guitar. They have very recent shows on YouTube, so you can see where they are at. Great show and very fun trip!

So after years of waffling, and trying to find a decent wood cabinet for my McIntosh MA6100, I finally found a guy to build me one. It arrived this weekend and I got the unit installed. It looks pretty good, if I do say so myself.

Superb. I love the feet!

Yeah, the slant legs were on the earlier models, and I think they just look right for this era (1974). It’s a nice touch.

Your equipment is damn near eternal, and now, after your improvements, is absolutely beautiful.
