 I hear ya!  I gave up on that "top 40" crap a couple years before you
 did ( got 12 years on you, though).

 What I don't rip from my personal CD collection, I d/l from LimeWire.

 Yup!  Thrash about for 3 to 5 minutes, and call it music.  So much for
 the current state of music.  I'm sure Mozart, Mendelsohn, and Beethoven
 are twisting about in anguish in their coffins.

 SD> That reminds me of the line that Elwood Blues says

 Too true!  Too True!  Now the funny thing about your mentioning this
 album is, I actually own a copy of the album...from when it first came
 out as an LP.
