He started doing everything I'm going to do, 15 years earlier

Softone makes some nice stuff
Model 4 phono pre and Model 7 PP amp

Nice guitar!

Robert looks scared 🤣

 

[Cal Weldon]

I don’t like firearms and it’s particularly scary when there’s two bazookas pointed at you.

 

[Zen Mod]

Toyah is ..... still Toyah

I thought that Pumpkins are noiseless - other than the signal!

I forgot to say - these two are very interesting, from tech. point of view

nice food for thoughts, each one, for more than one evening

actually having them is even better (did I say that they're great bang for the buck? imagine some (already) Fancy Japanese name on it, then imagine at least quadruple price) ....... you can think of concepts and little details, while listening to them



Bubba deserves it .....

You talk about Toyah and Robert, or are you off topic, as usual?

I like Brian's very on topic video about them!

 

[Zen Mod]

well, I was quoting my Uncle Bubba Bob

regarding Dr. Fripp - all I need from him is KC

I didn't listen Toyah's music when she was hip, nor will start when she's hop

 

[Nelson Pass]

There was music? I must have missed it.

I think those are loose ship's cannons rather than bazookas.
Well, I better like hand guns, like this:
