Just listening to the Mike and the Mechanics song ‘The Living Years’. Just turned the Garrard 401 on and spun the vinyl and it sounds fabulous through the Tannoys. I can smell that old vintage aroma the equipment has. It’s been a miserable day with more or less constant rain and wind. Lots of areas in Britain are on flood alert (some area even flooded) including the Ribble valley where the aptly named river Ribble has burst its banks in several villages. I am not a big believer in global warming but something isn’t right. Even if the weather proves to be just a blip in the long span of the world then the world of man seems to be entering a phase of great change.
