mine is on brain/metronome germany. [the older green label IIRC]
people love that or hate it.
i think it was... derided here on the list some time back as
being indulgent noodlings or something like that...
edgar's solo stuff WAS on the indulgent side at times...
personally, i dig that LP :)

i never sold ANY of my vinyl, and a few years back had my
turntable restored to "like new" condition. there are MANY
great albums that have still not been released on CD, and
lots that probably never will... so my 1500+ vinyl collection
will be with me for a looooooooong time to come...
[and my 500+ laserdiscs too... another "relic" i adore...]
