Scratches not up to Scratch
Dear People,
I sing of the experiment of the library to provide record listening facilities for student-type people. It has failed. Please let us do something to relieve the piss-off? Briefly, we get cross listening-hearing Shakespeare when we asked for Webern, scratched records, record is stuck record is stuck, headphones crap out, staff won't take collateral if you left your library card at home, no volume control. One answer is not to have the cables running under the floor (from Study Hall out to the art presentation area booths. I dare to speak for many dissatisfied students, many of whom use the service as an essay resource or just plain recuperation.
Should all music be experimental?
Yours faithfully,
Elton June or Ragman.
