I heard it last weekend through those Klipsch Cornwalls, and it bowled me over. But I could yet be disappointed, it's happened before. In about 1977 I heard Fleetwood Mac's Rumours played through a pair of Yamaha NS1000Ms in a hifi shop. I was so impressed I left the shop and went over the road to buy the record. Didn't have quite the same impact through my Wharfedale Dentons. Still a classic though, it has seen me through all my system's incarnationsOriginally Posted by struth

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!”

Well he's an old boy now. I was 22 when it came out and I was amazed some old geezer of 45 years of age could still rock out like that.
Ofc now I'm ten years older than Young was when he recorded it...

Going through your own 33 year-long grunge period
it was my era I suppose but the only other grunge bands I have records of is Smashing Pumpkins and Foo Fighters. And I'm not sure Foo Fighters count.
I was mostly geting into Steely Dan and Creedence back then IIRC
(Noel) Gallagher noted in 2006 that the 1994 Oasis single "Live Forever" "Was written in the middle of grunge and all that, and I remember Nirvana had a tune called 'I Hate Myself and I Want to Die,' and I was like ... 'Well, I'm not fucking having that.' As much as I fucking like him [Cobain] and all that shit, I'm not having that. I can't have people like that coming over here, on smack, fucking saying that they hate themselves and they wanna die. That's fucking rubbish''

Foo Fighters - 'There Is Nothing Left To Lose'
Back when this came out my boss's boyfriend was big pals with Dave Grohl. I told him to tell Grohl that IMO he had made a classic rock album.
Didn't expect him to actually mention it to him, but he did. He said Grohl was very appreciative and said 'Thank you'.
Read an interview with him not so long ago where he says this is his favourite of all their records.
