RAL, I don't want to burst your bubble BUT…I have both works and I find only about 50% of the works to be "valid', musically speaking. There are *no* liner notes….how does one really know to what extent these songs have any involvement with the Amiga? Were they sequenced on the Amiga? I find little actual sound creation done by the Amiga…is it my ears?<g> Please tell me! I would be happy to do a song by song critique. I have trouble 'knowing' where musical satire begins and ends? Some of the instumental work is really excellent….most of the vocals are mediocre at best!(sorry Steve)! Some of the lyrics are sooo 'lame'! Am I missing something?? >>I'll not earn anything from the $'s you send Steve, just the satisfaction of supporting the Amiga Platform and it's artists.<< It is very unclear to me how one is supporting the Amiga platform by buying these CD's?? Care to elaborate. I would welcome a comment by Steve Kusaba. Steve is certainly a talented person…especially as an instrumentalist and composer. I do feel that these works would be much more solid if some of the material was excluded. FWIW…I have been playing guitar since I was 14…been playing reeds since I was 9…been becoming a keyboardist/synthesist for the last several years….I am very liberal/eclectic in my musical tastes. Am getting old at 47!<g> Thanks for listening! I have to be honest when it comes to music….anybody want to play poker?<g> Tom tbarker@empirenet.com
