Bill, I applaud you for at least keeping an open mind and not just rejecting something out of hand just because it may not have made it through your cultural filters as a young person. I further applaud you for introducing your friends to a new experience. That's what life is all about. Okay, I'm off to the Grand ol' Opry....well, soon.

Spalding, to paraphrase the song 'He ain't heavy, he's my brother', all I can say is, 'It ain't heavy, it's my organ'. On the Cory/SP thing, yes, I've listened to everything I could find by them on the 'net and each new thing just gets better and better (I think my favorite might be Lingus). I'm still trying to find something with him playing arranger keyboard .
