Spectacular!

I’m somewhat confused. It that supposed to be a kid (short, relative to the system size) playing with a grownup’s stereo? Is it a grownup with a large, sophisticated stereo system – if so, such a person is highly unlikely to leave a CD case on the floor.

Otherwise I resemble the image. A few of my old recordings will get me going. And have since I was a kid messing with parent’s stereo system – but not when they were home, of course.

This must be a clever way of reminding the youngsters what real bass is all about.
