That's me in the middle at the back. None of us there were ex-Neve but as the company grew there was a few ex-Neve, like Geoff Watts and Clive Angel joined us. The sad thing about it Doodlebug is quite a few have now passed away, Derek Cook at the front who worked for Pye and the chap Jim on the right have been dead some time now. Time waits for no one.

Thanks for the info. I used to work with Clive Angel for about 15 years until he retired around 10 years ago. He still walked his dog around the science park long after he retired. Not sure if he is still around.

Tomorrow I’m going with my mate for a demo of a s/h pair of Magico speakers, I couldn’t afford the cardboard box they come in but my mate can and I reckon they will be his next purchase if all goes well tomorrow.
What disc do people like for a dem?
My mate will bring I’m guessing
St Germain - Boulevard
Larry Carlton - Fingerprints
Sade - Diamond Life

I use the jurassic Park theme to demo speakers, slow build up then by the time the harmonies kick in it's hairs on your neck standing up

They repaired my Cyrus. I ran away before they tried to ruin my credit rating.

Looked at a Bentley at the dealer as well. Good bunch

This lad at school called Nigel Butler, you must listen to this new single I’ve bought, it’s brilliant it’s called One Nation Under A Groove, he was right, it’s timeless.

Surely you take your favourite album, no matter what it is, as that is what you’ll be listening to when you get the kit home.
So for me, AC/DC.
And Oscar Peterson.

You woulda thought so and I agree. It gets lost on me when the gear gets more important than the music your playing.
