THAT should be worth listening to! What was interesting was the discussion on how very different it was to record for CD than for LP (They have an LP set from some years ago). I don't remember too many details, but the impression was that the performance result should be much better (partly because of their particular producer, partly because of the recording requirements for CD). -- Martin Taylor {allegra,linus,ihnp4,floyd,ubc-vision}!utzoo!dciem!mmt {uw-beaver,qucis,watmath}!utcsri!dciem!mmt
