I think half the reason that a lot of fans don't think much of
Levitation is that it doesn't really shine on the same kind of $50
low-fi gear that _Doremi_ sounds awesome on.  ;-)

(Of course now we've got the EMI remasters, we don't need to hide
Doremi under a nice safe blanket of amplifier hum anymore.)
