This month, you'll no doubt notice an imbalance of fine French bric-a-brac, acquired during a multi-hour excursion at Paris' wonderful Bimbo Tower while on tour last month, as well as a few oldies recently dusted off that have been stimulating the hair cells of the spleencoffin HQ inner ear. All analog this time around, maybe next month we'll concentrate on rare CDRs; who knows? Stay tuned!!
