If there's a human being alive on the planet who could survive a QSound'ed
remix of "Waking The Witch", I'll eat a bug.  Nice idea though, Jon . . .

        Columbia Records
        666 Fifth Ave, P.O. Box 4455
        New York, NY  10101-4455

If it's for real, it's the best news I've heard all *month*.  It does

two-disc collection of rarities would probably fly quite nicely.
