Re: Love lorne loopers(was slagging)



Dave,

She sounds like a fine woman.  My wife isn't aware that music is still 
being
made and she laments the demise of her record collection, which consisted 
of
Tapestry, Tea for the Tillerman and The Big Chill Soundtrack, all on 
vinyl.  I
recently borrowed Transmutation from a friend and within 30 seconds of 
turning
it on, my wife (a therapist) had one of her psych books out and was trying 
to
diagnos me.

While using my recently acquired Time Machine, she asked me to help her 
move
something.  I left the loop on and turned it up a bit to enjoy my creation.
She looked at me quissically and wondered why anyone would want to listen 
to
such a thing.

Not that I don't love her and enjoy her company.  Music is just not a 
common
ground.
