Allright, should have been more specific.  I also have the Pinder 
cd, probably one of the first when it released, and agree it is 
outstanding, as there are other QUALITY samples out there.  However 
releasing something commercially, for the mainstream user, one would 
think it could have been done better than this. As soon as I return 
home will download your work and thank you for that. Doug (owner of 
many erratic 70's inferior examples)
