That's what I was thinking of when I asked if we were really wanted
"clean" copies of those tracks.  ;)

Having been singularly unimpressed with the new Tull album, I'll be
going over WotT again tonight.  Maybe I'll even have time to A/B
some; I thought I caught some notes/riffs that were kind of lost in
the static on the album re-releases.

Slight topic detour:  is it me, or have this year's new releases
been generally underwhelming?  Trepanation is about the only one
I've wanted to listen to repeatedly.

As well as in 72.  It's the first song I really remember hearing on
FM radio.

    It's part of the mentality of society to always concentrate on
    things that are negative.                      - Earnest Byner
