    Table of Contents – Issue 211

    It’s safe to say that every Copper reader grew up with Radio Shack, especially if you’ve ever burned your fingers on a soldering iron. Now, every Radio Shack catalog ever published can be accessed on the website, www.RadioShackCatalogs.com.A sister site,www.alliedcatalogs.com, features catalogs from Allied Radio going back to 1929. Both sites offer a wealth of additional material including advertisements, vintage TV commercials and much more. They’re incredible treasure troves of audio history.

    The music world has lost two songwriting legends with the passing of Kris Kristofferson (88) and JD Souther (78). Kristofferson wrote iconic songs including “Help Me Make it Through the Night,” “Sunday Morning Coming Down,” Me and Bobbie McGee,” and also had a successful acting career. JD Souther struck gold with his “You’re Only Lonely,” and penned many hits for the Eagles and others.

    In this issue: B. Jan Montana says the Titanic’s musicians knew…about life and its meaning. Adrian Wu has a report on the Hong Kong High-End Audio Visual Show.Wayne Robins has a conversation with Perla Batalla about her album,A Letter to Leonard Cohen: To a Friend. Batalla sang in Cohen’s band for years and knew him well. Rich Isaacs has the latest installment in his series on test records and demo discs. I talk with singer/songwriter extraordinaire James Lee Stanley about his new album, The Day Today, and review the Hyeseon Hong Jazz Orchestra’s wonderful new Things Will Pass album, with an interview from the composer. Paul McGowan continues his look back on 50 years of PS Audio. Ray Chelstowski offers a tribute to the late JD Souther and interviews the masterful blues guitarist/singer Kenny Wayne Shepherd.

    Harris Fogel has thoughts on quality, style, and class, in audio and elsewhere.We cover the latest release from Octave Records, The Art of Hi-Fi, Volume 06: Guitars. Rudy Radelic covers The Vinyl Beat and new reissues from Black Sabbath, Idris Muhammad, John Lee Hooker, War, and more. I continue my series on playing in a rock band with advice on getting mentally prepared for a gig. PMA magazine designs the ultimate listening chair. Ken Kessler keeps spinning reel-to-reel tapes. PS Audio earns positive reviews from Hi-Fi News and Alpha Audio. We conclude the issue with potent portables, playlist priorities, and calavera.
