the one that got away - how do you handle grief?

Temporarily Stupid, happily I came to my senses.

One of my all time favorites is Moody Blues, 1st Album, Go Now, (before Justin Hayward).

I’m at a Record Show in a Hotel, very few vendors had tapes. I find a R2R of my favorite, but the guy want’s $8. He won’t come down. I walked away, almost got to my car, then said to myself "You IDIOT. That’s your FAVORITE album, when are you gonna find it again, walk away for what, $2. too much? Idiot!!!!". 

About face, in a hurry now, luckily it was still there. (I have a 2nd copy now).

They were a piano influenced blues group in the beginning, and on the LP, the 1st track had very dynamic piano that always sounded muffled. Whoever cut the LP blew it. On the R2R Tape, it sounds terrific!

I more than highly recommend this album.

@elliottbnewcombjr I have this album :)

@zlone yes, I communicated with the seller. I plan to see it if and when I am NJ/NYC. I am regularly in MA so it may happen later this year. It’s a bit beat up, but cosmetic condition is not my main concern.

@kennyc you are pretty smart my friend and I am, to put it lightly, only learning from my own mistakes (after the 3rd, same one) 

@mag16 sweet story! It’s funny how many times MBLs are mentioned here.

I bid all day and all night and all I got is this stupid t-shirt and this annoying comment from @thecarpathian 

@douglas_schroeder nice way of implying I am a loser and sore loser and complaining little b%tch. Yes, possibly. However this is not so much a material, more of an emotional pursuit.

I didn't think it was that annoying.

Not as annoying as this one:

Elbuktál, mert az Univerzum gyűlöl téged! 😃

I was watching "Your friends and neighbors" when the pawn lady said: there was only one dog fair in Buda. Guess what John Hamm said @thecarpathian 

Is that pig Latin??
