(Kenny's track is certainly one of the best tracks on AI2). Those marketing tricks are really making me sick too. I mean if the music is so important, why didn't they put the second Darrel Fitton track (the one on the 12" or something :( ) on the 'limited' CD as well? There's plenty of space on it..... Just compare AI2 to TEX2. On TEX2 there's more music, a very interesting book _without_ pretentious bollocks and it's the same price. But OK, let's get back to music again!! sorry.
