Jazz In The Garden Stanley Clarke Trio, Hiromi, Lenny White 2009 https://album.link/i/1394898942 Example: Wow, what a great album. I am now super sad that they didn't record a bunch of albums together. With Hiromi and Lenny playing off each other and Stanley doing all the Stanley things, very entertaining.

Whew. Thought maybe the particle board and busted ass plasticy veneer might win out.

Just circling back on this. I know it's not for everyone, but JFC, this album still hits just as hard as it did a year ago, even after an obscene number of plays. It's dark and achingly beautiful. 5 stars.

Looks cool. 100% you will find a reason to hate it.

Before and after shot before sanding and finish.

^^ Got it in my Roon library, thanks Ian!

Good To Be... Keb'Mo' 2022 https://album.link/i/1587995320 Example: Almost too mello? Not sure that can happen with Keb'. Just a really nice listen. And City to City Gerry Rafferty 1978 https://album.link/i/693606397 Example: Yes it has Baker Street, and Right Down the Line but I thought I would share the opening track. I find it just lovely. First time listening to this/him as an album. Very solid and great writing throughout. It made me appreciate him as an artist. More on the country side of rock, than the rock side of country.

There is a mom joke in there somewhere.

Good news, everything appears to be working normally now. With some help from georgep and joamat I managed to track down what seems to have been the culprit: one dead 2SC3675 in one of the triplets of 2SC3675's. Probably the reason two of the LEDs nearby were dead too. I just need to plug in some stax now and have a listen... All batteries now measure +200V/-539V, and R42 measures 6.55V just as it should.
