I bought the box set off the shelf at a local record shop just       because it looked so        damn cool. My friends and I played that album to death throughout high school.              But yeah, if it had been my 30th Zappa album, I doubt I would have been nearly       as impressed. Sometimes it's a time and a place, y'know?              ron              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
