    Hello,
    I also have three, new, black metal record album frames I'll send, at no charge. These are intended to frame a record album cover as a work of art (would not use the Beatles, "White" album) on your wall. For this one, a little game, the first person to email me at kswauger@polkaudio.com with the nicknames of jazz giants: Charlie Parker, Lester Young and Billie Holiday, wins.
    Regards, Ken

    You have mail AGAIN.

    This is fun, do you have any tube amps to give away?

    Well done, Russ! He's graciously agreed to accept only one of the frames. So, there are two more available. Here are the next three qualifying questions:
    1). give me the first and last name of the three Pointer Sisters (yes, you can, can)!
    2). who is Robert Zimmerman?
    3). what city is the last resting place of Jim Morrison?

    Didn't Jim get kicked out of Paris? I remember watching on tv where his plot lease was up and the constant vandalism made them decide not to renew it. I could be completely wrong or exactly right. :D

    Looks like I'm out of luck:(. But wouldn't it be nice if Polk does more of this stuff for us forum members:). Give us quizzes and we get prizes like Polk pens, shirts, etc.

    How are you out of luck? There are 2 more records for FREE, and the 3-part question has not been answered for the free record frame?

    The only record I would've wanted is the one you got. I don't know the other bands. I'd like the frame but don't know the answer to any of his questions:(. Maybe I'll look around the web for the answers. I gotta say Russ, you're a damn shark man! You snatched those up quick.

    So what's up? Are the frames spoken for? I would love to have at least one.

    Russ, you're a good gracious man. ;)

    There's nothing like sticking your favorite album on a wall to display.

    Hey Derick, there's 2 frames left. You have to answer either question #2 or #3 that he posted. I'm going to look around the web for the answers. Good luck.

    *edit* Oops:o You have to answer all 3.

    Good morning Derick,
    If I am reading everything correctly, you are the winner! Please email me at kswauger@polkaudio.com and I'll get the two frames to you. Congratulations. I have a few more items of interest and I'll post another music/movie quiz.
    Have fun, Ken

    Hello members,
    After going through all of this mornings emails (448) I've found that BET sent the correct answers about six hours earlier than Derick. In all fairness, it would be best to split the two remaining frames between these two, since they both were correct.
    Regards, Ken

    Hello,
    I have a very fine copy of a true audiophile LP, it is the theme music for a movie called, "Cat People". This has been on just about everyone's RTDF (records to die for) list. If your system has the bass resolution and dynamic range, this will sound amazing! Here's the three qualifying questions:
    1). in Stanley Kubrick's "2001 A Space Odyssey" where was HAL assembled, city and state, please?
    2). in "Cool Hand Luke" what crime sent Paul Newman's character to jail in the first place, I need the specific thing he was doing?
    3). in Elizabeth Taylor's Academy Award winning role as Gloria, in "Butterfield 8", she was driving a beautiful two tone sports car, I need to know the two colors and the model of the car.
    It's a great sounding record, all nice and clean, so good luck!
    Have fun, Ken

    Posting on the Forum is probably more interesting for readers. Make your best guess, it's all part of the fun.

    I'll chip in the answer to #2 for people...

    Luke was unscrewing parking meters from their posts with an over sized pipe wrench... he was very drunk.

    Hello,
    Very well done, Tour. That is a great scene, he just flops down on the sidewalk, totally bombed. I'll give a hint on the first question: the town, I'm looking for, is located on interstate highway 74, between Danville and Champaign, south of The Windy City. The third question's answer is that this company made four wheel and two wheel modes of transportation and the colors are the same as the tall people who wait outside of a famous British landmark. Good luck!
