When we were kids, we liked to torment my mom by sneaking that album on instead of Perry Como, crank the volume way up, and just wait for her to turn the "Hi-Fi" on. Then we'd run for our lives.

Strange Brew, Very Best of Cream is still one of my favorite CDs. I pump that baby up when its time to turn out some perl code. 60's rock rules Randy from Burbank --- Kathleen Tyre wrote:

Speaking of Cream, rumor has it I will be recieving a recording of Cream's reunion concert performed at The Royal Albert Hall any day now. Not much of a chance of Cream coming stateside, Ginger Baker apparently has some problems getting a visa to come here. Anyone have some frequent flyer miles for me to go see Roger Waters perform with Pink Floyd at Hyde Park London on July 2nd? This talk reminds me of when I saw Roger Waters and Eric Clapton at Byrne Arena, Meadowlands NJ- Pros and Cons of Hitchiking Tour. Conall-have DAT recorder will travel.

Blue Oyster Cult, 1972 debut album. "Cities on Flame". I already liked the hard edged stuff, and was totally hooked by then. I'd already been listening to my older sister's more heavy rock records. Although I liked acts such as Black Sabbath (first album I ever bought), Deep Purple, etc., I tended towards lesser known metal bands. I still haven't changed. Love the heavy music! ...However, lyrics like Winger's "She's only 17" didn't do anything for me (argh!) when my own daughter was a teenager - my youth is lost in time, but I still like the music.

My Mother used to refer to Little Richard as that screaming N word. I think it was then I realized that parents were not always perfect or wise. Little Richard was the essence of early Rock and Roll (although his lifestyle habits were ............a little strange). He, Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis put that music on the map. Then the British took it to a whole new era. Criswell

Elvis Presley singing "Teddy Bear" in 1957.....my first "grown-up" record, the LA Philharmonic performing Beethoven's 9th at a Young Peoples Concert in 1959, and my first James Brown album in '62. Started playing drums immediately afterwards. Got a degree in Percussion in 1974. support your local musician. music in a box sucks. support live music. Most interesting music out now.....Steely Dan and John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers (all editions). Both best experienced live!!!! Hey Geo, how 'bout Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller or Tommy Dorsey? Benny Goodman, Miles Davis, Art Blakey, so much good music, so little time. Buddy bseifert71@...

I recently installed the K&N air filter on my '05 - I wanted to break it in (3000 miles) before I made an mods to the intake, so I just installed it a few weeks ago. The guy at the Kaw dealership suggested I try running the K&N without the air box cover, as he does, to gain extra airflow (interstate use only of course). I tried it, out of curiosity, and it made a very noticeable difference in freeway power. My mileage went from 45mpg to 53mpg over the course of 500 miles, and there was a significant difference in power over 50mph. I put the air box back on a few days ago (as I was going off road), and left it on for a 250 mile interstate trip. I noticed a decrease in freeway power, and my mileage was back to 45mpg. The only real concern I have with leaving the air box cover off for freeway use is -- am I leaning out the mixture too much? Am I likely to cause damage to my cylinder over time? It's running at roughly the same temp, and I have not adjusted the main jet (carb is all stock)... so I thought I'd post the question for some of the more veteran KLR riders to answer. Thanks for your input.
