in August). Many years ago, I was editor of Hi-Fi News in the UK; I
took over Stereophile in May 1986.

Fine musician but hardly a British jazz pianist.

Smiggy was tanked when he posted yesterday.

Huh.. you say that like it's a bad thing.

Sure, but what is "Smiggy" derived from? Just curious and all, y'know.

It just popped up, like Bug Eater, Diggun, and my other little
epithets of dishonor.
