AA-4-H-O. AA-4-H-O, go ahead. Good morning, Russell. Good morning to everybody participating in the telephonca event on the G-TROP-N. Hi. What was the question of the day? Did you ask it yet? Yeah, I did, but you can't hear it yet. Do you have records? Okay, go ahead. Do I have records? Okay. I used to, but I got rid of them. They don't really accumulate in value. One of my favorite ones was in an album from The Who. I had one, Tommy with the London Symphony Orchestra, and I had Led Zeppelin and all those other. I had a mystery that I wanted to tell you about with records. I had Deep Purple with Ozzy Osbourne, and I went to play it one day, and it was warped. I always wondered how that happened. I wondered if maybe my aunt heard it and put it on the stove or something because she thought it was warped. For a long time, I never knew how my Deep Purple album ever got warped, but I figured it out later, and she's in the clear. I think it was on the top, and a sign came through the window, and that's how it happened. But for a long time, I wasn't sure how that record got warped. I think that they sound better than that, digitally, so I still listen to the same music. I just don't have records like I used to. I had a lot of albums. I used to go to the record store and buy albums. The Court of the King Crimson, I had that album. And I had some blues too that someone recommended and I thought I enjoyed a lot. I had a nice little silver tone turntable. 84-H0, Ron, you're off to our defect to rest of the net control. I had a part of A3, don't you see? B99-A2. Even if I get on the tab, I can choose to end up called B99-A2. And the question I see is, do you have a part to keep? Of B99-A2. B99-A3, KKY. B8, BKY, KWAK, over here. Hey, good morning everybody on that. I have a few crates left of various different things. Old R&B and soul, lots of hip hop. Old disco records, old reggae records, Calypso, comedy records, even some short stories, short books, short speeches. I like to have Malcolm X at the Harlem Rally or whatever. My mom was actually there. I got the wax for that. It's hers. And then they made tons of things. Oh, there was the Prospects of Freedom and the... Oh, I'm forgetting something else. But I have a few things that ended up like where they pressed some of the speeches on vinyl. So I have some of that. And there was that big one too. I can't remember it right now. And many albums got made out of that one too. Oh, and then in Harlem Unity Rally, later on that got released. There was an album called The Wisdom of Malcolm X and it was a different part. That got re-released and put out a few times as well. And probably when I move, I'll whittle a lot of it down. I'm not going to throw everything out, but I'm going to throw out a lot of stuff that I don't use. Probably a lot of the Calypso stuff is just cluttering. I don't even spin Calypso. And then some house music and some things that I used to get when I was in a record pool. Back in the days, if you wanted to DJ, a cheap way to do it was to join a record pool and then you'd get a bunch of wax that way. So I got a lot of things from that I could probably throw out. I just don't need it. I just don't care about it. And so, that's how we'll roll this. Yeah, love MP3s. You know, back in the day, I used to think about maybe ripping and encoding some of my vinyl and I did for some of it. But I ended up deleting a lot of it from my hard drive because I ended up being able to go and get master copies, digital copies that sound way better than the wax copies I had. So, plus, when I record with my encoder, I find I have to really turn it up. And so then, I just didn't feel like tweaking all the files that I had made. It was usually to delete a lot of them and then I got masters for those. And I think mostly now, if you want to rip vinyl, a lot of the easy way to kind of do that is someone else has already done a lot of it. So if it's major releases anyway, don't waste your time. I mean, unless it's vinyl you pressed in your basement, like where you controlled the masters because you made them just five minutes ago, it's kind of pointless. It's pretty much anything you can name, it's already been uploaded and out there. Even at one point, I was wondering about maybe ripping some of my albums and stuff on YouTube, but everyone else has done that. So it's like, this is stupid and there's way better copies. So that's the score on that. Oh, by the way, I want to get into this on my next album. I'll stay for this one as a teaser because I should be here for my next album. So as a teaser, Popeyes stuck. In Canada, at least anyways. And I'll tell you why in the next round. I was so damn disappointed. I can't believe I even made the venture to go to that stupid place. Popeyes Kitchen. In Canada they call it Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen. It's the same thing you guys have with your chicken. But it sucks now. So I'll tell you about that on the next one. Okay, BA3KKY back to you Russ. How are you, BA3KKY back from KP919. If I have one down on the top of my chest or in there, call KP919. And the question of the FQA question, call KP919.
