Yeah, updating, more research, more bands, maybe some interviews and
different perspectives (from musicians and fans)...of course, you can work
all this in to your own thesis, by argument or whatever, since it's your
project.

Tracks 1 and 2 ("Solar Electric" and "Open Your Mouth") are both tracked as
number 1. "Greater Waters" would seem to be one track, but turns into two
when the slow, mandolin part starts.

I wrote out my own track-list on a sticky-sheet and attached it to the insert:

1.Solar Electric/Open Yr Mouth
2.Don't Forget to Breathe
3.title track
4. and 5. Greater Waters (pts one and two, perhaps)
6.Landing on Cydonia
7.Hot Fluffy Mind

I never noticed

This is true--I just turn the level all the way up!
