| Dickie Betts died earlier today at 80 years of age Jessica is one of the great rock and roll instrumentals. It just soars. | |
| Burning-in as a non-linear experience I believe burn in is a genuine phenomenon because I've had it happen when I didn't expect it. I had upgraded my speakers for the first time in many years and at first I was not overwhelmed at first. I hadn't a thought in the world that there might... | |

It might be just the disc and the booklet, but that would make... | |
