I was serving in the military in Northern Ireland in 1973 during the "Troubles". Crazy time, checkpoints and body searches everywhere, bombs going off every night.
My first decent system was my refuge, along with some Guinness and the occasional bit of hashish. Sansui SP-100 speakers, Dual 1229 turntable, Sansui AU-555 and TU-555 amp and tuner.
Loved that system, lost it the divorce from my first wife.
I still remember finding out that Duane Allman was a sideman at Muscle Shoals and had a ton of music in additon to the Allman Brother Band. This was before the Anthology release of his studio work. Heard him on Push Push by Herbie Mann and the search was on after that.
