One turntable needs a new belt and I have to measure it as the
original is long gone.

I'm about to get a new TT as I do have many things that need to get
transfered and last rough estimated was about 6000 LPs, 10000 45s,
and 3000 78s.   

I recalled that you played drums and had a kit set up at your house
when I was there at the second Guru conference.

ISTR that you were also a recording engineer in NYC at one time.
Correct?  If so where.  A local FP user from the past used to
engineer at Apostolic studios - so called because they were the
first 12-track studio in NY.  They did some rather strange artists
there, and he also cut a couple of Spanky and our Gang LPs.

I still keep up my NARAS membership but stopped voting the Grammys
a few years ago. 

Music become addictive and the last recording session I was at - as
a guest - was in Novmeber - when a group re-created a 1903 Edison
Cylinder session to make a cylinder as a birthday present for
an 80 year old Dixieland musician.
