@Tendraftsdeep Plus! If you played that a couple nights ago and I missed it, that tells me I have to pay attention more. I’ve been absent for a while.

@Tendraftsdeep I was fortunate enough to see him twice, one was in ‘87 while he toured that album in the Glass Spider tour. Pontiac Silverdome.

New cartridge day! First time aligning a cartridge with a protractor, looks odd not square on the headshell. Wow, what a difference in sound from an elliptical stylus to this Shibata stylus. Detail and attack- more separation.

@Tendraftsdeep “World Leader Pretend” resonates with me more than most songs. It’s carried me through a few things.
