View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

But to be clear: I picked out my CD and brought it to the store. They woulda played Steely Dan or some such thing

But I was referring to those high end stereo shops (where you buy stereo gear that costs what a small car costs...)
