| The
Boom Box or Ghetto Blaster as it is lovingly known, has become a real Kick-Ass
entity in the 21st century; especially when you jack-up the power to more
than 2500 Watts, and put it in a car!
The POWER of those--Low Frequency--Thump, Thump,
Thumps' is nothing short of Amazing!!! Those waves go right through
concrete; rattling windows, dishes, and the cat, as they pass thru!!
When this POWER is allowed to fall into the hands
of Terrorists or Teenagers, life on this third planet from the sun, goes
to
HELL in a hand basket!
A Play List of one:
A tape that does nothing more than Thump, Thump;
Thump, Thump, hour upon endless hour-- catchy. --A Toe Tapping
good time was had by all!
