That could also mean it is an example of an innovative idea that ends up influencing a lot of people. It's probably too soon to tell though. That's why I was suggesting we look at the 90's. We've got a few years of perspective, and we can take in the whole decade and get some idea of what things really mattered. After that I figured we could take another look at the 80's, since that decade is also pretty sparse in the "essential recordings" page. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
