*sigh*... Back to trying to fill the holes in my collection. Maybe we should remaster these CD's ourselves. After all, if you own Auntie Aubrey, you own the rights to have a backup, or in some cases, a stereo remastered version of the original. I don't understand how they could have screwed up the Wir track. I've got the CD single of this. Drag and drop!
