MY GOODNESS I like your music. I had bought the first Zep album with a thick handful of others (rabid collecting)(and I had a spendin money job in HS), in That Year Of My Favorite Albums, and I had a honkin console stereo in my big bedroom that was lend-lease from my parents. It had like a 30" bass speaker. Awesome thing for 1961 technology. Anyway, I couldn't listen to em all right away, and I was out somewhere and heard Babe I'm Gonna Leave You on the "alternative radio." Wow, I sed to mysef. I gotta get this. We had bought the album, Neal and I, sight unheard because we Knew It Was Coming. Lo and behold, when they said who it was. I realized it was home leaning against the Boxcar O Sound! I ripped the plastic off and slopped that thing on the table and TOOK OFF. Cranked it up loud, [remember "RECORDED LOUD TO BE PLAYED LOUD" ~ liner note of Let It Bleed] and sat in front of the ring of niebelungen for the ride of the valkyries. I had it up so hot it was three feet past me before I heard it. Always kind of liked to preview em that way. Who's Next, Bold As Love, Layla, It's A Beautiful Day, Small Faces Ogden's Nutgone, Sergeant Pepper's, Yadda Yadda Yadda. I remember the place and the afternoon and the effect like it was Yesterday. The Book of Revelation, it was. Rock and roll hits Art. Dazed And Confused. It's Getting Better All The Time

I have the original Beatles, but it sounds pretty bad. I think I drooled on it a lot or something. Do you think it's worth anything? ANd the original PP&M- going to put it on NOW. ANd the original Mamas and Papas. We listened to Firesign Theatre last night, and Ammo didn't find it amusing. I think you have to be high maybe. Dan and I were giggling away and AMmo just sat there saying- I can't understand them, waht are they saying? We couldn't find Dan's copy of the First Family. Ammo couldn't get the hang of lifting the needle. I guess to him a turntable looks about the way a gramophone did to us.
