I requested a copy for the Shure Library (available to Shure associates) and the archivist was into it! Looking forward to reading it!

I took care of a friend's LP collection while she was on tour and she had EVERYTHING by CCR. That's when I fell in love. Sometimes those 8 minute jams that seemed to be at the end of each album side could be a lot. But they knew how to write a song. Soulful dudes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGVU...

Any other suggestions for me? I'm going to be pretty mellow about it but want to hear if there is something really special. Not into elf stuff.

First, the iconic image by David Wojnarowicz; his response to the AIDS crisis, his diagnosis, and the government's lack of response. Coupled with the adage "Hindsight is 2020". Not just an untrue statement in this context but also a very specific year. Incredible!

Manley was one of the first companies to reject the sexism that was widely a part of selling audio gear. They never had a bikini babe fawning over gear in their ads; no booth babes at NAMM. EveAnna herself was often in the booth to talk to customers. They are honorable folks and I wish them well.

I remembered a joke that my dad explained to me. I asked what "Sunday-go-to-meeting bun" meant. My dad laughed and said, "hole-y (holy) bread!"
