I did fortuitously come across some useful technical information in the
International Extremely Academic Journal of Engineering Vol xviii(34) Jan (345)

Why you should use a SET amplifier.
"As everybody knows, high power amplifiers use larger electrons to achieve this
high power. The bigger electrons don't start or stop as fast as normal
electrons resulting in much heavier, less nimble Watts. So high power
amplifiers can never have the finesse of low power amplifiers. High
sensitivity speakers only work with the smaller electrons (the smallest are
produced by tube amplifiers). Thus if you use a high power amplifier with
sensitive speakers you need a transformer that slims down the electrons and
makes them swifter. Such transformers are available from Jenny Craig Audio
Inc., Phen-Fenophile Corp. and the US Nuclear Agency."
PS. Don't forget to elevate the amplifiers above the speakers, so the signal
can flow easier.

The SATRI principle
Q. Does anyone possess any information about amplifiers using the SATRI
principle?
A. Of course! Jean-Paul Satri was a famous French philosopher who invented
boredom. He wrote the hit song sung by Janis Joplin : "freedom's just another
word for nothing". He and his friend Genet built amplifiers out of abandoned
bidets found behind brothels. Many Pacific Rim restaurants use his menu
stylings. Sorry, no other info available.

That's slam :-) You can get the same kick drum effect just in front
of a loud PA at a gig

Yes - and usually even from a triangle...

Whoo-Hoo... Fretless Bass homer mmmmmmm, droolll /drool

I do hope you've been boning up on Jaco and my mate Mo?

Mo.... He da man!! Still remember hearing him for the first time with
Jeff Beck about 20 years ago - blew me away big time...



Hi Stimpy,

My vinyl collection is kinda very short on Jeff Beck records. (I'm mainly a
classical/jazz collector) Any must have recommendations for the hunt would
be good.
I've got 'Guitar Shop' & 'The Best Of Beckology'.
Many years ago there was a Vietnam War series on TV that had a Jeff Beck
intro..sounded great - but god knows what it was or even if it was
recorded..any ideas?

TIA

Cheers,

Mike

If you like 60's British R&B, get "Truth" and "Beckola".
If you like jazz/rock, get "Blow by Blow", "Wired" and "Live with the
Jan Hammer Group", and perhaps "There and Back".
Three albums I found pretty forgetable were "Rough & Ready", "Beck,
Bogart, Appice" and "Flash". Others will no doubt disagree.
I like quite a lot of "Guitar Shop". The last Jeff Beck album I bought
was "Who Else", which apart from a couple of nice tracks was pretty
awful.

"Must haves"? Tricky. I suspect most would say that Truth and Blow by
Blow are the two absolute classics, but I personally prefer Beckola
and Wired.
