After looking at my "Picture of the Week", I found this picture of my first Stereo System. The heart of this system was a turntable/record player my parents received when they ordered the Encylopedia Brittanica. Even though this system had minimum amplification the sound was fantastic due to the placement of speakers and the ultra comfortable stereo listening chair. Also adding to the sound quality was a Carlings Black Label or perhaps some Sloe Gin and Seven Up. Special lighting was also used to highlight the listening experience. Many times I would pick up my guitar and strum a few riffs of Led Zeppellin or the Stones. I can remember many nights while lost in my music, I would grab a book from my library and just read til early in morning or maybe draw a picture to hang on the wall.You just can't find systems like this anymore! Speaking of music I added a little music to my Blog ........Hope you like it. I hope to change it based on what I'm listening to at the time.

I have a chair exactly like that one that was my Grandmas!! If you need a new music chair it is yours. You could sit on it and listen to your ipod and read a book. It just won't be on Bond St.

If it looks like that one.... Thats one nasty chair, We are "over furnitured" as it is right now. Anyway I'd still need a guitar and some Sloe Gin........
are you sure the roller did do some rolling in that chair while listening to some led zepplin?
