[78-L] "Boardwalk Empire" WOW!

[Ron L'Herault]

I just checked the comments on the HBO page about the show.  Two idiots
thought they should tone down the '20s music!  Sheesh.

And you heard Sophie from a CYLINDER, don't forget. But it was the old
fluttery 
transfer I remember playing in the sixties.

Fabulous stuff. I'll catch the last 15 minutes of it tomorrow. Curses and a 
plague on HBO for running it into Mad Men's time.

Our buddy Vince Giordano is part of the live music..no doubt he's lending
some 
authenticity to the record selections as well.
