It seems Larry Tamblyn fron The Standells has passed away also. Ned

Hello all - Sad news, my good pal Masterbeat64 has passed on recently in peace at home after a long illness. He was a man of great kindness in sharing both his record collection of garage & rockabilly with me over the years. Old timers here will remember him sharing many of his sides on the...

My thanks to all that have helped. Is anyone out there looking for a copy, a good friend just may be persuaded to part with his ? Ned

I have a set of Mark's latest creations & have access to a wide variety of high end cables , streamers & DACs of esteem. I have been tabulating a list of my observations. Mark - is this the best place to post my results ? Ned
