Frump, if you check some of our promotions to PR you'll see that many of them aren't frequent forum visitors. Although the forums can make you more known, the real history dwells in the PA front page.

Never.

Not looking for promotions. But you would be surprised by the number of Bon Scott fans here. And my having Good 'ol Bon as a musical idol just indicates that I love AC/DC's music. The same as Gentle Giant, Steve Earle, Johnny Cash, Genesis (all eras), PFM, Le Orme, heck a ton of RPI, Nick Lowe, Ted Nugent (yeah, his persona is a bit much sometimes), Alice Cooper, les Colocs, Trust, Ange, Bruce Cockburn, SPlit Enz/Crowded House/all FInn bros work, XTC, ZZ Top, Howling Wolf, John Lee Hooker, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Beethoven, the Beatles & the Stones, Kiss, the Kinks, Klaatu, Harmonium and many many others. I am a music fan. The genre matters not a whit. Music that I like is what I like P.S. How did you manage to upload a picture of yourself ? It caught my daughter's eye as I was posting. I would try to load mine, but my computer has an intelligence filter. Which is disabled when I submit things to PA threads

ACtually, I've got the nine symphonies (the 6th is my fave); the Complete String Quartets from Nimbus Records, with the Medici String Quartet. I also have anthologies (4 cd sets) of Tchaikovsky, Mozart, and Stravinsky. Among more modern "classical" music, I especially love Erik Satie. But I'm just one of those old 70s kids who was into music, not genres. I befuddled my friends by buying Dire Straits & Gary Numan records, along with the Cars & AC/DC.

I'd like to read them, my bon Petey.
In fact, your ol' Brazilian pal has now more reviews than you (only in quantity not in quality) and it's time for you to reverse things...
