Todays menu (beginning with an album which might deserve to be in the (at least: my) Top 10 of 2023 albums too, but came out a tad to late for it (just now) :)

Here is an interesting show that is coming to San Francisco next week - Steely Dead; I've no idea who the musicians are....

I was wandering where and what I might be doing next week, but for the inconvenience and being "torn away" from the sonic immersion I've finally attained at home presently, you know there was a time when I might have seriously considered the adventure on a whim being footloose - As I did so decide within minutes one Friday night to co-pilot out to Mission Bay San Diego era 1981 driving my friends new BMW (Blaupunkt stereo cassette, which BTW, I wasn't impressed with) for a two week excursion from Rhode Island, for instance. lol

I used to work here in the SF Bay Area with Larry Sloven, who ran Silvertone Records and was Robert Cray's manager....

Oh wow... I do envy your exposure to the music industry in the hot bed of happenings in San Frisco as well as the birth of the many reproduction gear companies out of Berkley and California in general.
Eventually (IIRC), your career direction was in distributions of recordings to the many smaller record shops also must have been a blast too, with the many better stereo systems to be sampled/experienced, I bet.
Just so very cool, Larry!
( meanwhile I was relatively wasting time hoisting tonnage building Trident Submarines which I hoped and rationalized to be a deterrence to the unspeakable horror of their use)

Elaborate if you would reminisce, perhaps Larry?
I find your experience fascinating, being in that timeline and place(s). :thumbsup:
