Hey.. it's a well known fact that music can only be innovative if you like it. Imagine how confusing things could get if it were possible to respect the work or methods of an artist, even though you weren't into the end results. ~g np.. kronos does bill evans -- Greg Smith http://www.laiad.com "I don't trust anybody¹s nostalgia but my own. Nostalgia is a product of dissatisfaction and rage. It's a settling of grievances between the present and the past. The more powerful the nostalgia, the closer you come to violence. War is the form nostalgia takes when men are hard pressed to say something good about their country" - Don Delillo/White Noise --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
