thank you so much for saying that. i may hate the saxophone in general as an instrument (especially tenor sax), but that doesn't mean there aren't songs that use it that i like (e.g.: peter gabriel's "start", which is all synths except for a tenor sax). just because a sound or instrument is present shouldn't necessarily exclude enjoyment of the piece. in fact, i have respect for people who can take annoying sounds and songforms and make them into something great. d. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
