Just listening to David Bowie 'Space Oddity' on a nice warm Saturday afternoon, and this song took me back to the 80s (for me). Such a great time and period..

*carry on*
I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    I have not heard that song in forever. Just went to youtube to hear it. I know it is not the same as listening to it on the rig but it brought back memories. Thanks.

    Bowie was some of the most coin I dropped on Vinyl during college! I must admit I was a fanboy!
