Thanks Eric. That's very flattering. But the truth of the matter is far
less grand than all that. I'm a public servant - this is what I'm, ahem,
paid to do..cough cough...
Otherwise my days would be spent almost entirely at home, alone, peering
out a rain flecked window pane from behind mildewed net curtains, playing
endless rewinds of isolationist "hits", re-re-reading Beckett's "Waiting
For Godot", while occasionally wandering out of doors into the awaiting
maelstrom of wind, rain and inflation, to stock up on CD's, medicines and
magazines.

Brian -- i desperately want to get you and Alan lockett in a room
together, flip through fifty or sixty albums and tape-record the subsequent
back-and-forth. If either of you are even half as mordant and wonderful in
person as you are in email i reckon i could go around forcing random
reviewers and record shop employees to listen the resultant audio as
a cautionary tale : "This is the par, bub -- measure up or shut up"
Thanks
