I had a gig up in Palo Alto yesterday, so I stopped by my
favorite Northern CA LP and stereo shop, The Analog Room
in San Jose.


LP Bigotry noted.


Yep. *On that trip I was also a Macy's bigot, a Foster Freeze bigot, a
some-little-independant-gas-station-in-Palo-Alto bigot, and a restroom
at a rest stop on 101 bigot.



So many new LPs on display, I could have
spent a bloody fortune.


You could have even had CDs if you did your homework, Jenn.


Not at that store.







I settled on 6, new and used:


New:
Stacey Kent: Dreamsville * Candid Records


I know that I'm not supposed to know about these things
because I'm an "ivory tower professor" at a "rural
community college", but this is GREAT female jazz vocal
singing. *And the recording is simply marvelous, in a
"singer and combo is in the room with you" kind of way.
Very highly recommended.

I have all of those CDs, save the Kent and the Respighi.


I note that treatment for mental conditions has been available for
much longer than CDs have been available. Ditto for various drugs that
help combat hallucinations. While they don't use it much, prefrontal
lobotomies have been around for a long time too.

I'd have to guess from the evidence that GOIA is an insanity bigot.
