        2CDs is good, but as the good Mr. Star Rats has already said that
_CPL74_ will be out *much* later in the year ... well, with HW I believe
the latest date posted ;) and hope to be pleasantly surprised (but not
with any great expenditure of effort ;)

> Elsewhere in the same issue, They have a list of the top 75 albums of the year. No.28 is

> Latido" remaster.

        Hear, hear.  Though I put the _DFL_ up top.  I like _SR_ better than
_ISOS_, but admitedly _ISOS_ probably benefited more from remastering than
than _SR_.
        Those re-releases are still unquestionable the finest job on a
re-releases I've ever heard of.  My only complaint, of course, is that the
cardboard packaging is too suceptible to damage ... I've recently bitten
the bullet and put the CDs in jewelcases and tucked the original packaging
away, before they can collect any more bumps and bruises ...

Cheers,
Carl
