[time-nuts] Rb references for audiophiles?

Hi,

I did better than hearing an Rb referenced audiophile recording of 'thick as
a brick'.

Jethro Tull were touring earlier this year on their 40th anniversary tour.

For my aging ears, they were sonically fantastic, not too loud with
excellent clarity.

thanks
Doug

Mark,

I hope you are using "Thick as a Brick" just in the way it is mormally
used to characterize a person's qualities of mind and that you are NOT
refering to Jethro Tull's famous record of the same name or are you?

This fine piece of progressive Rock of the 70's is still on my top 100
list of alltime favourite records and is surely also enjoyed by other
non-audiophiles all over the world.

Otherwise the discussion reflects very well what's going on in my
technician's heart concerning audiophile gadgets.

Best regards
Ulrich Bangert
