    Big thanks for the mp3 player. I've often wondered why it wasn't possible to listen to a little of the music before downloading. This way you get a chance to discover first and if interested carry on with the download.

    thanks - Joe

    Yeah, Riccardo, you' re right.
    I must have been relly sleepy, and
    didn't check the lower part of the page... Sorry. Thanks a million for
    this wonderful tape. I recorded myself a few concerts down at the
    Capolinea back in the '80s, so this one feels a bit like home.
    Thans again.
