Ah Thank you for that--yes I lived in the UK 84 to 86-- my second time After Art Schooling there 59to 66---WE met in 84 when I bought some ARC gear and we became good friends like wise with his then sec Debbie--
OK so that explains the SLs--he never mentioned them so maybe they gave him a bad memory ha!--I've owned
A1 s and been through all the trials and tribulations of those panel--frankly not for me sorry!
Yes the Divas were up against the Glass doors(UGH!) facing into the lounge driven by Krells at the time-- pooff!!--out went two panels KK was there for Dins and we looked at one another and hid our heads while the smoke cleared--ha!
Ricardo is changed today-- not the as then longhaired Rockstar--more Mafia boss look -new family/etc
Still makes me laugh tho!
Wow! what story on the speaker--yes been similar--when I was assignment in Japan mid 70's I convinced my employer there--Dentsu Advt to locate this mystery Sugano-san as I wished to buy his "new"cartridge -as I already owned Supexes
same thing we went to his house --winding coils with the family on the kitchen table-- took me 2weeks for him to make me a K--one of the first outside Jp
Great times!

Its over 30 years Bruce, we've all changed. At least Ricardo still has his flair… I loved those old Supexes too, small world!
