Little red rooster to the shed: ("Woodstock boogie", Canned Heat at Woodstock 1969)

This Canned Heat's song was never on commercial records.

Not on a Canned Heat album but is on Woodstock II

Possibly my favourite band from the era.

Cerwin Vega

Those old Cerwins sound very cool with suitable music to them, but are very far from HiFi.
Finnish HiFi magazine changed half of the parts to get HiFi sound out from them. :)

I have changed all electrolytic capacitors on crossover networks to old loudspeakers,
but new ones need to be of correct value. Don't replace a 5 uF with 4.7uF or 12 uF with 10 uF, that will screw things up. Better to connect smaller ones in parallel to achieve correct value.
Small sizes can be replaced with modern plastic types on most cases.
Start to sound far better. On quite rare cases also shortcutted capacitors harmed drivers or amplifiers.
 
Some of you old acid heads would remember Madder Lake. Played support for Rolling Stones at Kooyong in Melbourne 1973.
Played support again at the 45th anniversary tribute at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne yesterday.
:P Stones tribute included Ash Naylor (Even, Rockwiz, Paul Kelly), Tim Rogers (You Am I) Davey Lane (You Am I). Absolutely jam packed.

If I knew how to do that I probably would - stick it all on a little memory stick or something.

Most of the vinyl albums us old farts own are so old nobody is really interested in them so they can be pretty cheap to buy online from the Apple iTunes store. May be cheaper than buying decent gear to digitise them. CDs on the other hand can be copied straight onto your puter using the disc drive.

Once digitised you can copy to a thumbdrive, a memory chip, or your phone. Most modern cars will link to your phone via bluetooth and play your music over the stereo.
 
I record music to C-cassettes at home and then play them at my "Laverda service pickup"  ;)
The car player was unused from 1990's and I changed the drive belts.

No compatibility problems :D
I have Sansui C-cassette player from 1980's at home, it's enough to have the signal to its rca connectors
to record the tapes.

Couple of problems there. My car isn't modern, and I'd probably look like even more of a dickhead if I were to dye my teeth blue.

Not much point in digitising your music then.

OMG, I'm just waiting for someone with an under dash 8-Track player to tune in :o
One friend of mine was looking for old damped EP/Single disc player to his old car. Those car versions are quite rare as far as I know.
Maybe the oldest system is His Master's Voice vinyl player on trunk, just played on picnic.
