I just saw in the latest issue of Stereophile that John will no longer be writing for that publication. There is a long thread in the Critics' Corner, but I actually don't go there - I lurk on this Asylum and the Vinyl one, so I didn't see that until now, and I don't know how many of you go there either. John has written some illuminating columns over the years and I am sorry to see him leave. The two top of mind are the best song contest (my entry, which was erudite and distinguished, alas was also lost) and the column on great but unknown works we should hear.
I guess there is another venture coming soon.
