This afternoon I've been listening to a Benny Goodman quartet on 78s recorded in the l930s, a Peter Maag late-50s performance of the Mendelssohn 3rd on a London R-R-tape, a Dave Brubeck LP from the 60s, and CDs/SACDs by Jim Hall, J.J. Cale, Wayne Horwitz, and Johnny Hodges. All in the comfort of my home, in reasonable fidelity (or better) that may seldom remind me of the real thing but certainly cannot be duplicated live. I listen to exactly what I want, when I want to. And I think there's a lot to be said for that :-)
