Now I'm hearing Bjork's voice in Ida Marie's voice. Someone must have slipped me an hallucinogen.

@Michael Shelley: I bought my copy directly from Will Birch, easy as pie and cheap as (imported) dirt. Can't explain the inflated prices for it on the Intertubes.

Out shoveling snow when "California Sun" came on. IT was a big, why-I-love-great-live-radio moment. Yes, I also very much enjoyed MS's artful handling of the telephonic hiccups before the interview.

Thanks!
