Mr. Wingnut is one for the discussion of diverse popular beat combos but I haven't seen him posting for a while. I expect he's beavering away on the forum awards.

Miles Davis was voted 'greatest jazz musician ever' or something by somebody last week. Not sure I agree with that. Generally speaking 'greatest ______' is a completely meaningless statement on a good day, unless it's "David Cameron is the greatest banquet pig fucker.'

FTFY.

I like Miles Davis' stuff, but I've never been into jazz all that much.

I do like the blues though. Lightin' Hopkins is ace.

no vinyl scratching with a laser turntable, bit pricey though

Drop dead sexy, but way out of my league.

Sexy? It looks like an Atari 7800 on steroids.

Like he says, way out of his league...

Who didn't like the 7800 when it was new?

I rest my case.  :-P

I would say those are way out of anyone's league. Nine grand to play a ten-dollar record? Ridiculous.

I'm not sure lacquered wood (NJ) could ever be sexy.

Apart from in the 70s.

A friend of mine had a 7800 while I was languishing away with a 2600. I was more interested in the huge flip switches rather than the wood effect. The 2600 had little sliding switches, those on the 7800 looked like the controls of a spaceship.

Nothing is sexier than a "laser".

A laser in lingerie?
