crazy doctors? I estimate many pro's have entered their "fields" initially upon a quest to find a self cure. but most are OK, as in I'm OK yer OK
I find many examples of insanity everyday > finding the network printer has seized then checking the printer queue and seeing your boss has printed the same document 42 times.
You had to remind me that I dropped the Tubelab PC and killed it DEAD last week. I have moved my entire life three times in the past 8 months. I have finally moved into my retirement house that was recently built in rural West Virginia. The PC was one of the last items to move, and I dropped the damn thing halfway down the basement stairs.
NOTE, raid 5 will not save you if all the drives are dead. One is dead for sure, made a loud scream, some crunching sounds, and will not spin up, the other two have some life, and some data loss. 24,000 pictures and a lot of my important files are stored on those drives. The cooling tower (similar to the one in your picture) is bent, and the PC does not POST. Not yet sure if the motherboard was damaged. I stuck the remaining drives in a second PC.

8320 running waay cooler like 15-20c cooler from that haha at 4.7ghz, I just booted in at 5ghz 1.52v though haha, stressing yeah still wants to go sky high to 70c and and that fan after it hits 60c starts winding up/sounds like take off to 5000rpm haha
Never heard it or heard of it. It would need to be terribly good to beat the original as IMO the original is probably the best album in the world.

The best album in the world? Maybe it was having heard "Money" at least a thousand times in the first couple of years or so after its release while in the retail audio trade, but if you must insist on PF, I much preferred "Wish you were here" several years later. High on my short list of rock of the era would have been "COTC"
Supertramp - "Crime of the Century'
But my all time favorite from "back in the day"- meaning the late 70's early 80's - had to have been FZ- "Joe's Garage" - I found it almost impossible to listen to less than its entirety.

does weed lock you guys into a musical time warp, true all good selections mentioned, but come on ppl time / music goes forward too unless flashbacks are happening.

I definetly enjoy a good time warp. Try Ensemble PAN "Island of St. Hylarion". 15th century Cypriot polyphony. Good stuff!!!
all recorded music is "time travel" - whether it consistently gets you to a specific timeless "place" is up to you, and chemical assistance is not always necessary.
maybe, maybe not... but why do some fall back on same decade every time? sheesh
like my brother in law only considers one or two artists from his youth
I call it stunted growth.
What I don't see very much is people posting new stuff that blows them away. Yes, there is music being made today ( or the recent past) that is cool. Where are the people passionate about it? The Greencards "sweethearts of the Sun" is great. Cecile Corbel's "renaissance" is great. Shel, The Civil Wars, come on y'all, I'm all ears! Bring it on.
Infinia - sure, but how does that follow from what I wrote?
yes, as my wife could attest, my "growth" in certain areas was stunted over 4 decades ago, but if I'm following you, for a lot of reasons I actually now listen to far less to "the music" of a particular decade of my youth than periods both preceding and following.

I am all in favor of modern suggestions if they are good. There are a lot of contemporary electronic musicians writing spacey music and not all of it whiny new age crap!
Some of Orbitals stuff was good to listen to in an enhanced state of mind, their heydays were in the 1990s, but there are other more recent electronic musicians writing good stuff. Even Tangerine Dream were still doing some good stuff recently. With the recent death of Edgar Froese though, they're unlikely to continue forward, but that's just an assumption. His son may continue the family tradition.
Gordon.
in no particular order, other than "most recently played" - all new to me in the past decade - not all of us can be completely current
Harry Manx & Kevin Breit
Jerry Douglas, Russ Barenberg & Edgar Meyer
Jacqui Naylor
Lindsay Buckland
Rodrigo y Gabriela

Since I dig Harry Manx (chrisb turned me on to this artist) I'll certainly be looking into the rest of those, Chris.
Cheers!
