How many of you know what "TG" stands for, in "TG Audio"? Bob must of had a heck of a sense of humor. This is part of a thread from AA for those of you that may not have seen it. http://www.audioasylum.com/audio/tweaks/messages/125293.html |
A wonderful guy with a zest for life. When I had and ultimately sold my Blowtroch, he couln't have been more of a gentleman. He would call to just to check in and see how it was working. He was in the Chicago area in the late sixties or early seventies and on occasion we would reminisce about the Chicago folk sound from that era. David Shapiro |
Bob told me once that his company was originally called Throbbing Gristle Audio, as mentioned in the asylum thread (link provided above). Apparently he had a customer who wanted to make a substantial purchase, but the customer's wife was offended by the brand name. So Bob amended the name to TG Audio, and the sale was, ah, consummated. |
