Yeah, I anguished about that, but in the end I decided against a new thread so as to not hog shelf space. It seemed uncool to have Clorox Demo and Clorox Golden Master on the bleach shelves at the same time. It's a tricky issue.

Which means you're interested and for that I thank you once again.

Sigh. I try! I do, but then I give up. Every now and then a single note just disappears in the mix and I cannot pull it back out. This is an ongoing challenge I am working on, and I thank you for not letting me skate on this. (Who was that "masked" man?)

That horn part is kind of dear to my heart, so I wouldn't give it up. But I am sure I could have rendered it better.

For some reason, the trick of tacking that on felt like an old-fashioned vinyl thing. Now I'm thinking: next time I'll have a repeating play-out groove. I'll have a short phrase repeat for like a half hour, so the listener will be forced to manually interrupt play, just like with a turntable! I love this idea. I will be sure to include a warning. =8^)

Thanks, David.
