   Oh, *that's* an easy one. _Walk Straight Down The Middle_ was a bonus
track on the CD and cassette. I wasn't on the vinyl LP. LPs, if some of
you young'uns have forgotten about them, were 12" black plastic disks
that had the music *inscribed* on the surface with (I'm not making this
up) a diamond awl attached to an arm that was jerked back and forth by
electromagnets. Really!
