Thanks! I have been an avid fan for many years . I started as a teenager.
It was the time when Brubeck was in the air. And strangely enough it was not "Take Five" which called me, but "Strange Meadowlark".

For some time I had stopped playing my collection and literally gave away some good equipment (mainly Sansui and some tubes).
Now the desire to play has returned - largely due to the fact that I have much more relaxing time - I have decided to reconnect this year with the McIntosh model MC240, a tube amp which I had sold many years ago. The prices for that has really jumped but it is great especially for vocal jazz.
My greatest disappointment: None of those around me caught the jazz bug.
However I have not given up. I am exposing the great grand to Ella, Sarah, Miles, etc.
