1. Loved the band

Dino also wrote "Get Together" by the Youngbloods and one of my favorites "What about me"

2. Indeed. 🤗

[Ohiya]

3. Great!

I haven't thought about this song in ages. Man, I've got to either get my turntable fixed or buy a new one! I have the double album "Anthology"

4. what kind of turntable?

[Ohiya]

5. It's a BIC, it's over 40 Years old.

It's an automatic belt drive unit. I've just been looking at new turntables on line and think I'll get a new manual direct drive. Old mister BIC may take a trip to the Goodwill, maybe somebody will want it! It has a good cartridge, Shure V15 Type 3, but it is also about 40 years old. I just got my Christmas bonus Friday and I've been thinking of buying a new guitar. Maybe I'll get both, I've been good this year!

6. I am a bit of a hifi guy

I own 2 turntables a AR XB . It is probably 40 years old with a pickering xsv 3000.This a a great combo and I can get close to $275 for the turntable and another $300 for the cartridge on ebay. My other turntable is a Systemdek X11. this a copy of a linn sondek and it is a great turntable. this will cost you $300 on ebay. I also have a sumiko bluepoint which retails for $400. Get tge systemdek off of ebay and a nagoaka mp-110or a shure m97e . both are around a$100

I just saw 2 on completed listings on ebay. one sold for $242 Plus shipping and one sold for $500

10. it is a wonderful turntable

12. Yes. Never any need to change it. More receivers have changed.

13. The 70" was the golden era of HiFi.

Everyone competed for your business. Wonderful receivers and electronics. Turntables were very good.There were many good speakers.

All can be picked up today for a good price on ebay and they still sound good. I have a modified Dynaco(new opamps and new capacitors, a van Alstine tube preamp and a belles amp. The one tging I recentlt bought were Andrew Jones spekers. He made inexpensive Panasonics and now he is with Elac. He is one of the best speaker manufacturers today.

I gave my son my B&W speakers.

7. I was in High School in 1969

A friend went to visit someone in NYC and came home with three albums I had never heard: the first Quicksilver album; Sailor, which was Steve Miller’s first (and only psychedelic) album; and Music from Big Pink by The Band.

I have bought albums, CDs and DVDs of all three of these albums over the years. A serious understatement to say that they changed my life, or at least listening to them during my first LSD experiences changed my life.

9. Almost everything about 1969 changed my life.

I think for the better. Loved almost every minute of 1967 to 1974.
