I thought it had been pretty well established that the track was inspired by or somehow related to the movie "The Shining." The concierge and all that stuff... a ghost in the house, etc. I wish I could quote a reference; it has come up here before. A quick TD question. Since the album was mixed to digital, is it reasonable to assume that the US and UK masterings sound (nearly?) identical? I finally got a UK HoL, and the difference is pretty obvious in places (e.g., beginning of "Mother Stands for Comfort"), although as IED pointed out, there's still a lot of tape hiss in various places. Has anyone compared the two TD masterings? -- Larry Spence larry@csccat.cs.com ...{uunet,texsun,cs.utexas.edu,decwrl}!csccat!larry
