T&C

Don Imus?

1st little guy already has that "get off my lawn" thing going on:

Clipping is in error... he was 27. Two weeks before Jimi and a month before Janis.. 50 years ago:

And... survived to talk about it!

1973, the 4 original owners and a pup

Tom Scholls?

Yesterday was great, today was a total meltdown.

I'm just throwing this out there, I was looking to see if Sling has a regional tv section to buy. https://nocable.org/streaming/zip/14218-buffalo-ny/

Was this house inspected before you bought it?

I have that too once in awhile but not like you are describing. Too many variables to take a guess with what you have given. Wood frame or Concrete Block? What State is the home in? Have you been in the attic? Is the house built on a hillside? This kind of stuff is pretty much needed to even attempt to form an opinion. I was a union carpenter for a good bit so I could take a stab at it if you provide more info like I mentioned above.

Only got to see the Talkingheads once... 1982 at Curtis Hixon Hall in Tampa. Byrne was running laps Around the stage while singing a couple of times. And Damn was Tina ever cute. Here is the setlist: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/talking-heads/1982/curtis-hixon-convention-hall-tampa-fl-13e5fd41.html

Crocodile hunters daughter?

The film processing fluid is what they use to process photo's in a dark room. It "spreads" the solution over the entire film/LP to be cleaned... If you have a photography shop near you it shouldn't be a hassle to buy a small bottle of it. Are you the same Pete that posts on the Billievers site?

I finally got one lol... I've liked that group since I was a kid.

Marilyn McCoo?

This is like getting a gold star with a question mark....

I haven't done any research on the receivers I have but the Pioneer I have is a SX-1000Ta... from 1968. Here is a pic of it... but the one I have is in the original walnut cabinet. I just weighed it and its 55 Lb.'s with the cabinet. That just seems like too much alcohol to me... maybe look at the Nitty Gritty website for a different take. I'd hate to see you ruin good vinyl man. http://vintageelectronics.betamaxcollectors.com/pioneerstereoreceivermodelsx-1000ta.html

Never heard of Record Archive. Where was it located?

Samsung phone and Roku TV.... I'll experiment it seems quite a bit this year. I do have a solid for watching the Bills games but this is different. Thank you for the post.

I guessed on the 40lb's but they don't make them like that anymore... at least in a retail setting. How much did it cost you to have yours refurbished? Couple of tips or/what to or not to do on your cleaning solution... don't use regular water, use distilled water. Be very sparing with the rubbing alcohol, if you use too much it will eventually dry out the grooves. If you can get a hold of a small bottle of film processing fluid that would be great... it helps keep a nice sheen when you are applying the liquid... just a few drops. Here is what I use for the Nitty Gritty: 8 oz bottle 1 drop of Dawn 4-5 drops of film processing fluid Tiny bit of rubbing alcohol, like 1/2 a capful if that Fill with distilled water and shake.

I miss record store days... the Sound Exchange down the road closed (there is another location in N. Tampa but I'm not driving all the way up there) and there are no record stores in my area now. Nice on the Marantz... I've had probably a dozen over the years but sold them all on eBay, even a couple in non working condition, for crazy money. Right now I have an 80's Onkyo going but I have a Pioneer from the same era as yours in a walnut case that I'm going to break out when we buy a bigger house. It must weigh 40 lb's. I have one of these, imo nothing will get a piece of vinyl cleaner than a Nitty Gritty.
