        Actually, it has to be said, I have a live version of `Other Side
of Life' which really does blanga. It's on that weird maybe-boot live disc
I posted about a while back and it clocks in at 6:52, most of which is
spent just riffing while all kinds of stuff goes on in the treble
range. One of those proto-blanga moments. I always reckoned the break in
The Doors' `Break On Through' was another but that one is maybe less so.

        My point being JA would have done HW better than the reverse I
think. Though I would like them to do `Have You Seen the Saucers?'
:-) Yours,
           Jon
