\"Thomas<\/a>I just put The Golden Age Of Wireless on and just a few notes into She Blinded Me With Science,\u00a0<\/em> I feel like the MTV age of the early 1980’s is suddenly here.\u00a0 All those electronic drums and synthesizers simple scream 80’s to me. I love it.<\/p>\n

In the previous post, I wrote about being grown up and appreciating true musicianship with Dan Fogelberg now i’m going crazy for something like She Blinded Me With Science. <\/em>Does this sum it up or what?<\/p>\n

This a strange little self discovery thing.\u00a0 You know that guy that yells “Science!” during that song? I just realized that after over 30 years, i still do that.\u00a0 At home or the office when something comes up that is explained or resolved using math or physics, I yell out “Science!” it is a reflex that I was not fully conscious of until I just connected those dots.\u00a0 It makes me wonder if I should point this out to the people in my office. They may not be aware of that song.<\/p>\n

The Golden Age Of Wireless<\/em> is also significat in that it marks the return to vinyl from factory cassette. I like to think of my factory cassette era as the temporarily relevant and regretted huge mistake. I can only assume that a hungry tape deck consumed one too many of my favorite tapes.\u00a0 I began to buy albums on vinly again and immediately make copries on cassette for everyday use while the Master Recording <\/em>was stored in a safe, friendly and protected environment. I still operate in a similar fashion to this day.<\/p>\n

From 1983 to early 1986, the decision to buy factory tapes haunted me as I methodically bought my favorite albums again.\u00a0 <\/em>In early 1986 I bought my first Compact Disc player which made the whole exercise irrelevant and I’d have to buy everything again.\u00a0<\/em> Speaking of that, The Golden Age Of Wireless <\/em>Compact Disc has different version of several of the songs from the vinyl release. Why?<\/p>\n
