Hi all,

Just joined.

Finally found a the type of site I have been looking for.

Music has alway been in my blood from a very young age. Give me a hi-fi over a tv any day, in fact, I don't have a tv, got shut of it nearly 20 years ago. Went through withdrawl symptoms which lasted about a day!

I play piano and guitar, so those two instruments weigh heavy in my music collection.

I have been into REAl hi-fi since the early 70s after hearing an instrumental by James Last which was played through a good hi-fi seperates system in a shop. I was hooked from then on. My system changed over the years until I felt that the sound I now have could not be bettered, certainly from my point of view.

Welcome. What's your system and taste(s) in music?

I must admit to having a couple of James Last LP's in my collection, from his "Mantovani" era in the mid eighties. I was never a fan of his "trumpet-a-gogo" era ;) Damn tight band he ran though...

My oath and bloody hell Dave, I never knew you had a James Last album in your collection, you're being outed me boy :lol: I remember you being stuck in one groove of the Niles, 'Walk across the roof tops' LP or summat like that. Believe it or not I wouldn't mind a copy of that myself. I emailed Linn records the other day for a vinyl copy of Stephane Grappelli with Martin Taylor, Reunion album only to get a reply that it was only available on download, WTF :stalks: I nearly cremated me Linn LP12 in disgust! Sorry for drifting off key all. Do like that NA TT though.

Cheers old buddy and welcome to The site for audio delights Jay (PanamaJack) :yay:
