It would appear the Twitterverse numbers have declined to the point where their latest “notifications” are now, conspicuously, clickbait. And who would actually click? Crazy!

I have more hard drives than I know what to do with—more media than you’d believe—but upon moving things around today, I noticed that between 2022 and 2023, Seagate reduced their warranty for large hard drives by 1 year for North & South America. Believe me, I have a NAS and much more, but…ouch.

Just snagged a pic of my very first personal stereo system, provided by my parents circa 1968. Voice Of Music turntable, with its flukishly light tonearm and cartridge, preserved nearly every LP I ever played on it.
Plus a pic of the album I got with it, still one of my faves. “America,” yes!

Got a kick re the previous owner of this promo Paul Winter LP.
That would be Dorothy Ashby (1932-1986), pioneering jazz harpist from Detroit, who recorded some classic albums of her own that would likely command a much prettier penny than this one did.

Hi, happy to be over here after a long stretch of inactivity over at That Other Place—which just today asked me to verify that I was an actual person! Dudes, I STILL don’t know! With that in mind, here a priceless reaction shot from Sparky, taken when she was but a mere pup!
