Like to think of that as me in front of a Marshal Stack. Nothing but tubes.

Thanks for the ping...

Too bad I can’t stand anything recorded before 1955. I know, it’s just me.

listeners throughout America who have access to a computer will be able to hear these mysterious tapes

There's a guy on my block who owns a computer. Maybe he'll let me use it.

As soon as I saw the article was about wax cylinders, I immediately thought about this:

This was hilarious back in the day, in a sad way.

The audio quality isn't that great ...

But they do say analog is better than digital ...

For me it was Mesa Boogie…until I went to a Kemper…and I never thought I’d use anything other than a tube amp.

BTW, stock up on tubes. Russia/Ukraine is going to kill the Sovtek supply and Chinese tubes are for crap.

I owned several Mesa Boogies, and played through many more over the years.

Loudest per-watt amps out there. That’s why my last one was a Transatlantic that I kept on 15 watts.

Now, with my Kemper and in-ears, I don’t even bring a cabinet to a gig. Zero stage volume.
