Is the theme of the night in these parts...
Running off backup generator! Love these type nights!
I saw somewhere that one of those labels, maybe Arhoolie, actually adds crackling to its CDs to get the flavor of old 78s. Might be apocraphyl, but who knows.
This is nice. It's just around freezing, still and the snow is coming down. We are just off the high Wyoming plains and get the 80 mph north winds a lot. That's what I hate. Thirty below wind that picks up medium sized rocks and smacks you in the face with them.
I think ole time country music sounds best on AM radio with the crackle of static in the background myself.
In all honesty, it's not so bad to set the vinyl down on the player, and let the cracks play between the songs... scratches, cracks & pops.. whatever... it's almost better with the noise, as testimony, to it's times. I really wouldn't want it any other way.. Though I do enjoy re-mastered tapes to remove the noise.. still.. It's part of our heritage.. and I like it.. :)
If we were really at war, the borders would be closed.
