Thumper said: "P.S. I played a small private reception for a
celebrity  you'd all recognize last night, in a big
mansion.......... on a Wurlitzer console. The owner
came up to me, beaming, "How do you like it ?" I
rejected the first 10 answers that came to mind, bit
my lip and politely said "It's OK ". ( I'm not good at
lying ) "When was it tuned ?" " Sometime in the last
year!" he beamed again.
     Sheesh!"
 
Thumper,
I've seen the above statement, and finally can't let it pass. You=
 have no one but your self, to blame for that!! When musicians=
 start specifying "A Tuned Piano" in their=
 contracts/negotiations, then we'll hear less and less of the out=
 of tune pianos over the air waves, etc. (Big PET PEEVE!)<G>
