Boo Hiss! I would LOVE to see a CD group, not devoted to the technical
points, but to reviews of individual CD's. CD's cost alot of money,
and since the quality of these (re-)recordings varies greatly, I'd
like to know about them before I shell out the bucks. Things like 
hearing that the Aqualung CD sounds worse than the LP and that Rumours
sounds much better. I think this kinda thing would be very worthwhile,
and I don't see what all this argument is about other than to rank
again on Allen and Grantges :-)
