I'd like to strike a balance between the official release (which doesn't include necessities like "I'm Not There") and the complete unofficial set (which overwhelms me with multiple takes and inessential tunes).

Has anyone done a project like this? Would you be willing to share your set list?I'd like to narrow down my collection to a disc for the original acetate tracks plus a separate disc (or two) for the best of the rest.

I'd really like to see how others have separated the wheat from the chaff with these sessions. I am less inclined to listen to the sprawling everything-there-is set and want to have a digestible collection of this music.

I can't bring myself to file "Love Letters from Elvis" under "Elvis Country" simply because it came in the "Elvis Country" Legacy package. So how do you file your discs?

I was just made aware that this was out. It looks good. Anyone seen it?

I've been listening to a ton of Morphine lately (I'm a big fan) and reading up on Mark Sandman through various internet articles I could find. Obviously, a very, very talented guy, but also a guy with a lot of issues (sibling deaths, addictions, etc.).

I think Sandman's death is one of maybe three or four that I grieve the most over. Not necessarily the way he died, but just the loss of such a great performer who we will never get to hear new music from again; makes me very, very sad :cry: ]]> Music Corner GodShifter http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/showthread.php?t=286048 Step-up transformer for Valhalla amp? http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/showthread.php?t=286047&goto=newpost Wed, 16 May 2012 17:12:39 GMT I bought a Schiit Valhalla headphone amp off of eBay and it just arrived. I have an issue I need help with. I paid $308 for the amp shipped, it included an extra set of tubes. The amp appears to be unused, but didn't have have an owner's manual, feet, or a power cord. I emailed Jason @ Schiit and he emailed me back a copy of the owner's manual to download. I can get a set of stick-on feet at Home Depot or Lowes, and I have a couple of spare power cords lying around, so those aren't real problems. But the amp is an international model (230VAC) and Jason said I need a step-up transformer for USA use. Can anyone recommend a good, but inexpensive transformer? Its killing me to have this amp sitting here and I can't use it :(.

The first shot looks into the old Today Show studio during a broadcast in 1954.

Check out frame #5 at the AP building. The 'Twitter' of its day!

Frame 8 of a grizzled Ballantine beer delivery man in front of the NBC Television Theatre, no doubt long demolished.

Los Straitjackets have an excellent new single (mastered by Bob Irwin). They do a surf arrangement of The James Gang's "Funk #49" titled "Surf #49" backed with a sublime rendition of the classic "Rainy Night in Georgia". You can listen to samples and purchase from the Sundazed website:
