Album which you have listened to most?
For me its probably David Live. David Bowies 1974 Diamond Dogs Tour at the Tower Theater. Just some great musicians backing Bowie on that tour.

Band's you have seen on their first U.S. tour
Stevie Ray Vaughn in a small club in NJ around 1983. Headliners were Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds that night. Being a Bowie fan, I new SRV played guitar on his Lets Dance record. I guess not many people knew SRV because only around 100 people were t... 
Any Alice Cooper fans?
You hit a homerun once in awhile finding a MINT original pressing. Good for you.Make sure you play "Halo of Flies" nice and loud. 
Any Alice Cooper fans?
Would have loved to seen his early shows. The original Alice Cooper Group was the ultimate rock band. In the studio, Producer Bob Ezrin had a lot to do with the groups early albums musically. Look what Ezrin did with Pink Floyd's "The Wall".I woul...

First favorite tune
The Beatles "Revolution". I was maybe around 10 years old. 
Solid state amp around 2000-2500 used or new
Can't go wrong with a used Pass X150.5 or Ayre V-5xe. Owned both and loved them. 
Any Alice Cooper fans?
I was a huge fan of his music probably up to Go to Hell. What intrigued me more was his stage show and what a funny and pretty cool guy he is(nothing like his character Alice). I'll always remember that first concert back in 75 at the Garden. What... 
Looking to replace Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference
I used to own AZ cabling and eventually went with all Nordost. Nordost really worked well in my system. The Norse 1 Frey's or Heimdalls are in your price range used. I personally own the Frey's in my system and love them. 
Favorite Pianists
Surprised nobody mentioned Mike Garson. ( David Bowie) Garson is my personal favorite and runner up is Keith Emerson.
