Matrix
...chi ama il vinile dovrebbe anzi deve munirsi di un sistema lavadischi, ne esistono modelli per tutte le tasche. Si parte da lavadischi manuali
per qualche decina di euro tipo la KNOSTY
a macchine come la Clearaudio Matrix. (foto)
Un positivo effetto collaterale e' la pulizia
dello stilo non piu' costretto a dimenarsi tra cumuli di polvere e residui
della stampa.

La Musica... secondo Gregory House
Per cui a tutti gli amici amanti della musica e non necessariamente ipocondriaci... propongo una "curiosità", ovvero una bella compilation di titoli da far invidia a nick the nightfly che fanno da "sottofondo" o meglio da "sfondo" alle tribolate vicissitudini televisive del geniale e misantropo Dr. Gregoy House.
Hugh Laurie, che lo interpreta con magistrale cinismo, oltre che attore e scrittore è anche musicista (in varie puntate lo si vede e sente suonare...) e non si può escludere una "trasfusione" del suo gusto musicale nelle colonne sonore...
