Michell Orbe SE, here it comes!

我が家にあるのは、1994年製の GyroDec です。2003年に中古で購入した際 は、SME Series II Improved トーンアームがついていましたっけ。すぐに SME 3009-R に交換してしまいましたが。

My turntable is 1994 GyroDec, which I obtained second-hand in 2003. I remember it was equipped with the SME Series II imp tonearm, that was instantly swapped with the SME 3009-R tonearm.

第二十四回サツチモ祭

去年におおよそ全演奏を聴いて十二分に堪能したので，今年は Jimmie Smith さんだけに狙いを定めて 16時半頃に会場入り．会場外の喫煙コーナーで，葉巻をくゆらせる Jimmie さんを発見したので，挨拶と昨年の感想を伝えたのち，写真を一緒に撮ってもらいました．

Since I listened to almost all performances last year and I was enough, this year I decided to concentrate on Mr. Jimmie Smith‘s performance. I arrived at the fest about 4:30 PM, and I found Jimmie-san sittin’ and smokin’ a cigar. I stepped forward to him and exchanged greetings, told him about my impressions of his performances last year, then I asked him to take a picture with him. And here’s it:
