THAT is the way to go!
i am reminded of how a Russian composer (i forget which) who'd moved
to the USA after the Soviet Revolution, couldn't afford gramophone
needles and made do with whatever needly-pinny-thingies he could find.
when asked how he could abide such terrible sound, he said something
along the lines of how the music was already in his head and he was
listening not for sound quality but for emotion. or something like that.
sorry, i'm a terrible storyteller - i vaguely recall reading this
anecdote from Classic CD back in the early 90s, and if anyone can
supply the name of the composer or the exact anecdote, please do!
