Welcome to The Stereo Closet

The purpose of this blog is to capture and reflect on a five-semester period from 1981 to 1983 when I ran the music at the TKE house at 222 W. Cooper, Maryville, MO 64468.

I also talk about my time when I came back to the 'Ville fall of 1985 and what I did with music. In addition, I want to list songs I should have played and reflect on songs I wish I could have played that were released after I left.   Songs that I know would have rocked the house.

The stereo equipment was literally in a narrow closet conveniently located a step away from the bar, dance floor and women's restroom...hence "stereo closet".

Posts will appear in chronological order but that's just how a blog is set up to work.  I can "label" (categorize) posts by a name or topic and that is how I see the blog being used.  To find categories, look at the menu ("File Cabinet") on the right.  So for example if you want to see posts related to "1981", then click on that and see them.  At any time, you can click at the top of the page and go back "home".  If you are in a label/category and get to the bottom of the page, look for "Older Posts" and you can continue until there are no more posts for that category.  Then move on to something else.

You should be able to leave comments and certainly comments or memories can be sent to me at alanrandrew@msn.com and I can add them to the "mix".


I still have the boombox.
