RE: NYT: Listening Clubs Tantalize Audiophiles in London

That's not what I said nor meant. I simply find it fascinating to watch a younger generation rediscover things that had been fading away. (And, yes, sometimes they think they've invented something new.)

I keep a couple of dead (but intact) vacuum tubes at my work desk as trinkets along with the family photos and other personal items. Amazing how many people have no clue what they are.

We did the same thing to our elders back in our youth.

A lot of times it is funny. Some years back I remember listening to the Tito Puente song "Oye Como Va" and having someone come up to me and ask about this "cover" of the Santana song. Not sure he believed me when I explained that Tito wrote the song and the Santana version was actually the "cover". ;-)
