You are full of shit Peter! I'm sitting here drawing spirals and circles and I can't figure it out. I'll have you know I can do that house-picture thing without picking my pencil off the paper, so that means I'm a pretty smart guy, MENSA caliber. ;) The groove has to cross itself at some point to acheive this. Actually it has to cross itself many times.

I have all of those records and I haven't found that. I'll look later. I heard that there's a Rush Record with SIX parallel grooves. And a Monty Python album with "three sides", one side being paralell grooved. -Cf ' - . _ . - ' ^ ' - . _ . - ' ^ ' - . _ . - c h r i s t ø p h e r f ª h e y . _ . - ' ^ ' - . _ . - ' ^ ' - . _ . - ' ^ chris@raremedium.com 2 1 2 - 6 3 4 - 6 9 5 0 x 2 5 8 http://www.raremedium.com - ' ^ ' - . _ . - ' ^ ' - . _ . - ' ^ ' - .

I'm sticking to the Ramp Theory, myself. You'd have to put tonearm weight instructions on the record sleeve in order to get the right trajectory; maybe a cone on the center label to block and guide the needle down to the outward-playing groove or something. ;-) On Thu, 3 Sep 1998, Christopher Fahey wrote:
