HW: The Quest for Levitation

Reminds me of when I started hunting out for BOC albums ! The oldest ones I
had to buy in the States while on a trip there, cause I just couldn't find
them anywhere here in France (and I tried in several cities, though not in
Paris - where I 'm sure I would probably have found them). Well, OTOH, I
must admit it took me "only" a year (maybe two) to get all the BOC albums...
well, I'm still missing the 3 live ones, actually. Hmm...

Well, actually I *did* have headphones on since I was listening to it at the
library. But the sound quality was very poor and one of the speakers in the
headphone wasn't working, so I wasn't really listening to this in stereo !
*sigh*

>If you like _CotBS_, you'll almost certainly love _Live Chronicles_.

Safe bet. Sounds logical to me. Though I'm always a bit hesitant to buy a
live album... especially when I already have the material in it in a studio
album. But you say there's other stuff on it, so I might give it a try...
