All they had to say was - sorry you had so much trouble. I had to take 3 copies of the Blasters first album back. I finally got another album. Their should be some kind of compensation from record companies for the expense people go to for a decent product, i.e. driving back and forth trying to find a click and pop free recording. I think most of my albums must have been pressed at the Waffle House with left over Hefty trash bags. But listen to the record companies moan and groan about home taping. If they'd put more money into technology and equipment instead of a bunch of jerk lawyers pockets they might see an improvement in sales. They finally are waking up to the fact that people are'nt going to pay $8.98 for single albums and $15.98 for doubles, with the kind of schlock they're putting on the shelves. sorry, I got carried away, Tim Connolly, BTL Indpls. inuxc!tconn
