Help me to remember those decades: we spent with different audio record machines; from LP to CD from cassette to mp3 player: What could be the result of those decades? More capability to express emotions, to feel emotions, to focus on emotions? AND THE ENGINEERS TRIED TO DO THEIR VERY BEST AND MADE STEP BY STEP A KIND OF EVOLUTION…

I started in the late fifties with country music, rock and roll and rockabilly, with spirituals and blues. Soon the BEATLES appeared and the Rolling Stones. Then soul, rhythm ‘n blues, gypsy jazz came in my mind. It seems to be a never ending story of influence, of listening and covering the top ten with my own guitar. But I think, at least, coming to the end of the line, we should make a final statement about the results of those many hours spent in everyone’s lifetime SUPPORTED BY THE NEVER ENDING IDEAS OF ENGINEERS TO OPTIMIZE THE TOOLS FOR INFORMATION … CALL THEM OLD FASHIONED NOW, BUT THEY HAVE BEEN AN IMPORTANT BRIDGE TO THE LEVEL, WHICH MANKIND ACTUALLY HAS CLIMBED!
