I still have my old Boston Acoustic and AR's in the basement, along with my Akai open reel. Digital has made things convenient, but the sound hasn't improved IMHO.

Some of my favs...






Listening, Party For Two: 'Sing, Sing, Sing' - A Blog Supreme : NPR (my comments-turn up the volume to really get the swinging nature of this piece, especially starting around 5:32. Ziggy Ellman and Harry James really let go on the trumpet, what can one say about Goodman that hasn't already been said, and Gene Krupa on drums...it will never get any better than this! from the famous 1938 Carnegie Hall concert)

"If by a liberal, they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind; someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions; someone who cares about the welfare of the people, their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties; someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicion that grips us; that is what they meant by a liberal, I am proud to be a liberal."
John F. Kennedy, September, 1960
