My copy came in a standard CD jewel box (it was bought in Canada immediately upon release) and I thought it was quite a lot shorter than 38 minutes, something more like 25 minutes (must be old age playing memory tricks again). I'm glad my warning was unecessary. I too have several full price CDs shorter than that, and at UK CD prices that is *NOT* good value for money! -- Regards Steve Fagg ( S.L.Fagg@bnr.co.uk +44-279-402437 ) BNR Europe Ltd., London Road, Harlow, Essex, CM17 9NA, UK *** "Better drowned than duffers.
