Ha ha!!
Please come say hi!!
I definitely feel a kinship with my fellow UK fans, especially the ones on this message board.
Big welcome to stenchymouse.
Happy Sunday to all. Good time in Church today.
My first 30 years was spent in the Methodist Church about a mile from my house. And I suppose, and maybe wrongly, that I can be a critic of them. My mom still goes there. I think it was me and starchief that was talking about that a few days ago.
Anyway, On the Solid Rock I Stand. Shalom and FCC.

It's a nice TT and in good condition too. It has an Audio Technica cartridge (model ?) that doesn't have too much usage
I do listen to MP3s especially in the car from my tablet. Also Google Play Music is pretty much MP3. This is such a great time for audio/video. So many different ways to listen and watch. I get the benefits of most formats. I downloaded my entire CD collection in FLAC on jRiver jukebox. I also downloaded several hi-res albums. DSD too. Surprisingly the one piece of equipment I seldom use is my CD player.
I have a DAC that I no longer use and I had it hooked up the Project headphone amp I'm giving you. If you're interested I'll bring that along too. It's an Ol Dac from JDS labs.
You lost me on that last paragraph.
Who are your favorite bands from back in the day? I've got an external hard drive with about 3600 rock and pop albums on it. Probably has every album ever recorded by the 60's through 80's groups.
Very rare for me to use my CD player either. I use USB in my car and just change the albums from time to time.
Bert:
TT = turntable
MP3 = digital audio format
FLAC = free lossless audio codec
DAC = digital to analog converter
hope that clears it up.

Bert, if you're referring to the "DAC" in the last paragraph then it's an outboard digital to analog converter. All digital music has to be converted to analog in order to be heard. CD players, PCs, etc. have built-in DACs that are usually not all that great and can't always play hi-res (resolution) audio. That's where standalone DACs come into play. Better sound and flexibility in playing music.
Like Bert that would be a long list but my 2 favorite genres growing up has to be Southern Rock (Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top) and Prog Rock (Yes, Pink Floyd, ELP). That really just skims the surface though because I love music in just about every genre. In fact my PC jukebox has around 25 genres in total.

You haven't changed much!
Lawn is mowed and I'm a sweaty mess, really ripe too. Now it's time for beer, music, grill, dog, oh and a shower of course.

Music for tonight:
While I was watching golf I made you a thumb drive with 90 albums of southern and prog rock. That's all it would hold. I didn't put any Van Morrison on there but I have 25 albums of VM. All digital of course.
After I made that list my wife and I had a thirty minute discussion on the folks that I left out.
Simon & Garfunkle. How can you leave them out? \\many many others.
Wow! I'm speechless. Thanks so much!!! Looking forward to meeting you and your Dad Tuesday!
There are 15 Yes albums. I didn't even know they had that many. 15 Pink Floyd as well. I only got 4 Led albums on there and then ran out of room. I thought it was a 16 gig but it was only 8. If you want, or anyone else here for that matter, want to get at least a 1 TB external hard drive I will put all this music I have plus 400 or so movies. I think it takes about a day to transfer it all.
I also went to church this morning.
I attended a large Methodist church here in the Phoenix area a few years ago. It was one of the most beautiful churches I've been in. I was searching for a church with a traditional worship service (hard to find out West). Very little of the gospel heard there. Never went back.
Could one be an evangelical Christian and serve as a pastor in the UMC?
Was playing golf one Saturday about 12 to 15 years ago and there was a scramble going on. Every fourth hole or so they had a portable bar set up plus Hooters girls riding around on carts with alcohol and snacks. It was a scene, man.
Anyway, after a while I asked someone who they were and what was the scramble about. Chick told me it was a Lutheran Church. If I were going to go to a church, I feel like that one would be a good fit for me. Respectfully speaking. Of course.

Do any of you use Spotify? There is a free version with ads and lower quality. The premium version for $9.99 a month is CD quality with no ads. Has about any music you can think of.
Big VM fan. Two of my favs are Too Long In Exile and The Healing Game.

I'm still with the "We don't smoke and we don't chew and we don't go with girls that do" crowd.
Don't go to the trouble ymmot. What you've put together is perfect!
Of all the things that are on that drive, I think my favorite is the Billboard Top 100. I have from 1956 through 2006. You can pick out a year and it's like you've gone back in time to listen to a top 40 station. I always find tunes that I loved at the time but have forgotten about.
I'd say that IH killed it.
Wish he would have stayed on. He was starting to come around at a good pace. A normal pace that we all grew up with. Not complaining about one and done at all just saying that 4 years would have benefited him and us.
Listened to Dark side of the Moon. Hadn't heard that all the way through for quite some time. Then had to listen to Animals which might be my favorite PF album of all.
Damn! That's some excellent options for tunes. Great music!
You should hear Dark Side Of The Moon in multi-channel SACD. Mind blowing! Wish You Were Here album too.
I've heard it on vinyl, cassette, reel to reel, CD, and MP3. Might as well add another one.
Remember when people thought Dark Side Of The Moon was about The Wizard Of Oz? Start the album when the color scenes began. Never got that one.
Same here... same order
I thought I heard you were supposed to start it when the lion roars at the beginning.
