Thanks in advance for your help. Chris Morrison Waiting in Reno, Nevada, USA for his copy of L+S from Amazon.co.uk, who may actually send it someday... Back to top

So, how much of the song is by Mike? Did he play the guitars, or just wrote the "beat" (or whatever you call it)? -------------- I reject your reality, and substitute my own. Back to top

I agree with what you said about BA using Mike's music instead. Maybe this will inspire them to use something else too! bee -------------- ....second to the right and straight on till morning....
