'holy Grail' & 'big Boy Tunes'


Paul-s

Recommended Posts

I often see these terms in sales sections or reviews

Holy Grail - What does this mean? Is it a track associated with religious iconogaphy?

Big Boy Tune - Do you have to be a certain size to own it!

Can anyone help me out and elabortate please? Are there 'Big Girl Tunes' aswell? Or 'Shroud Of Turin Turntables' to play the 'Holy Grail' on?

As a record collector im always baffled by these terms?:mellow:

you should know the answer to that one paul, because everytime you dj its staring you in the face and it attracts admiring glances from other djs, collectors and punters....you spend a lifetime putting it together so possess a holy grail, its just that you dont realise how good it is because youre always trying to improve it...itll probably never take your breath away but others will be praising the heavens....guess we all think our record collection is like that.

"The Holy Grail is a sacred object figuring into literature and certain Christian traditions, most often identified with the dish, plate, or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper and said to possess miraculous powers"

Don't know how that relates into a piece of vinyl Paul but thats what google brings up yes.gif interprit as you wishg.gif

needless to say ....it's not Bill Bush ...........your description sounds betterbiggrin.gif

Seriously ,it's a sales pitch to those who don't know any betterwink.gif

Isn't the holy Grail something we will never have?

Bill Bush hardly up there with the rarest of the rare!

And i thought the Holy Grail was something Indiana Jones and the Nazis were competing for in ' Raiders of the Lost Ark ' You know the Holy Covenant and all that. How silly of me !! Christ i hope i don't get a load of bad spirits flying out when i open my record box ha !!

You gotta admit though, it was a great film. Keep it clean !!
