Re: SDA Playlist
Not sure if this song has been mentioned, but I heard it on the radio, downloaded and holy crap. Method of modern love was meant for sda speakers. They did an unreal job mixing this song. Im not a huge Hall and Oates fan, but I listened to this song 3 times in a row. If you can't hear what I hear, then you need to readjust your speakers, cause this song is made for sda.

Funny you should mention Gabor Szabo, I just bought one of his prerecorded tapes as part of an auction:

Re: SDA Playlist
I'm not a big Dave Mathews fan, but 'Stay' sounds amazing. That guy did a great job producing a lot of his songs. Some bands/songs that I really like, sound like **** which is a bummer.

New addition to the expanding collection, this is a pre-show printing advertising the upcoming concert. And JImi Hendrix’s first appearance at the Fillmore in 1967.
This poster, for the “Opening of the Fillmore Summer Series,” is historically significant as it featured the Jimi Hendrix Experience as an opening act. This was also the first Fillmore appearance by Jimi Hendrix. These shows were just days after Jimi's appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival, where he set his guitar on fire and blew away the audience.
When this show was booked by Bill Graham, Hendrix was a relatively new name that few had heard of, and so he was billed third, opening for Gabor Szabo and the big kids on the block in San Francisco, the Jefferson Airplane. After one night or possibly two, the Airplane noticed they were playing their second set to a half-empty hall - everyone0 had been there to see Jimi Hendrix! Both Szabo and the Airplane asked if instead he would play last and they would open for HIM. Jimi Hendrix never opened for anyone again and it’s important to note that the Beatles had stopped touring in August 1966 and with the possible exception of the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix was The Most Important Rock Star of the late 1960s era and until his death in September, 1970.
Gábor Szabó was a jazz guitarist, who was born in Budapest, Hungary. When he was 20, he moved to California and he later attended Berklee College of Music in Boston. In 1961, Szabo became a member of a quintet including Charles Lloyd, playing what has been described as chamber jazz, Szabo was influenced by the rock music of the 1960s, particularly the use of feedback. The song "Gypsy Queen" from Szabo's debut solo album, Spellbinder (1966), became a hit for Carlos Santana

Re: Thinking about retirement.
100% Skip....wife had the same issue with pulmonary embolism(was told if she waited another 24 hours before getting to the hospital she would not be here now). She was hospitalized 6 days, mostly in ICU and had to have surgery done. Total bill to us was a $30 copay.
