It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Thanks Adrian, I'll get shopping on Ebay.Never too late for King Crimson, its Larks' Tongue In Aspic, a good one, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Larks-Tongues-Aspic-VINYL-Crimson/dp/B00ECK202U/ref=sr_1_4?crid=ZZIU077FBAYA&keywords=larks+tongue s+in+aspic+vinyl&qid=1687860419&sprefix=larks+ton% 2Caps%2C98&sr=8-4
and cheap as chips.
KC have recently re-release nearly all their albums on vinyl, some re-mixed by Steven Wilson & Robert Fripp in 200gm limited editions see https://burningshed.com/index.php?ro...h=59_92&page=2
I have most of their albums, been a fan since 70's, I like all of them but personally I really like Thrak which is from 1995, it is a more aggressive sound, quite edgy in parts, but very good IMO. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Thrak-200gm...ps%2C84&sr=8-3

I have that LP. It's a curious listen - not sure if I really like it or not.
