I don't even know what "techno" is. Do you like, pump computer static or something into your speakers from those PC's in your trunk?

I like some good techno too I have two 10" Bazooka tubes in my trunk. Not ground pounders, but will rattle the rear view mirror a bit I've gotten to like stuff like Moby lately, too.
But I guess I'm getting old. I can only stand it for awhile, then find myself grabbing Diana Krall or Sarah Brightman(I wish! ) and popping in the deck. My relaxing for a sunny cruise thru the country side with the sun roof open

I'm guessing that is when they were the band Return to Forever?

I'm a huge Chick Corea fan. Problem is that almost all of my recordings of his stuff are on LPs and, sadly, I almost never listen to music where the phonograph is. Once I get the CDs transferred to the external HD, the LP collection is next.

BTW, I came across a superb MP3 of Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock doing piano duets. It was a boot from when they did a series of concerts together back in about ’75. I would have delighted in seeing either or both Return to Forever or Herbie with the Headhunters. So.......I'm jealous that you got to see them

Age motivated me away from Deep Purple, Led Zep, Black Sabbath, John McLaughlin and the Mahavishnu Orchestra et al in favor of Theloneous Monk, Yo-yo Ma, Celtic stuff, Miles Davis, Enya, but, being a die hard, I still like SRV’s take on a lot of Hendrix work, and ZZ Top, Yes, Dixie Chicks, and even the occasional Tower of Power ditty. Lately the biggest dilemma has been due to the deteriorating sound quality of the 400es speakers and my total inability, even with the power of the WWW at my finger tips to find some Rainbows to replace them. Once I do it will be time to stuff another 10 CDs into the changer and work on increasing the volume of my tinnitus....

BTW, what is some good Techno?

Thanks for the post – I’d call it a wake up. I don’t know how somebody that works so hard to appear being an eccentric tightwad could think they were secretly current. Old cars, wooden boats and addicted to vinyl doesn’t seem very current, but still I thought I was. I’ve never heard any of those – I do use a Cure CD to break-in new speakers, but it’s just analytic – Wow it finally happened – Everyone else knew I was out of it, and now you’ve helped me to see the light. Guess it’s time to take up fly-fishing.

Howdy Crash-9,
It sounds like it's time for you to pick up on guys like Wylie and the Wild West, Michael Martin Murphy, Sons of the San Joaquin and Riders in the Sky

Sorry crash9, i was just listing the stuff I am into right now......Iget sick of the radio here in Vancouver playing songs 5 times a day so I do my best to support the up and comers and unique pop. I also like the Cure.
