If you come to Montréal, you can visit the Emile Berliner Museum and get a
little closer to how tango was first heard in the building where the first
players and records were made.

This cool little museum is not that well known (but Sir George Martin and
people like him have made sure to go there when in town).

It's deliciously ironic to me that the record, Nipper's appearance on it and
the company that ultimately became RCA were born here; that RCA destroyed
it's precious Masters of the best tango in Argentina (the year I was born)
- and that now this fanatic sound engineer/tango dancer (moi) sits in
Montreal restoring their old records to the best shape possible not far from
where the first records were made.

Just one more thing about Montréal that makes your head spin with delight.

site like I had again today.


Feel free to get in touch me with if you are coming to this city of cities
and want info.

I've lived here for 3 years now and love it more all the time.
