Vol. 2 was even better w/the best version ever of Sam Cooke's Rome Wasn't Built In A Day as done by Maxine Thomas, Irma's little sister.

Great news in the land of the Twilightlight Zone. We get the return of Gyro and then a posting from the Hound himself. We are not worthy.

Is this a new post from Gyro? Or is it another "originally sever by Gyro1966" reup? I sure hope it's new and that he's coming back to us!

When I was a younger man and a record store hound I saw this album several times but never purchased it although it intrigued me. I bought loads and loads of records during my time (it ain't over yet) but always regretted not having got this one. Thank you so much for this, it makes my day, my week, etc.

I ponder, I brood, and then . . . I come to this blog and life is good again. Thanks for all this. Anyone else having trouble, though, extracting this one? Can't wait to hear it.

It seems that if I'm having trouble extracting a file from TZ, then others are probably having the same problem. So if you're having problems, try extracting using the option "do not extract paths" in whatever program you're using. In WinRar you usually go to the "advanced" tab and check that option in the "file paths" box. The problem appears to lie in creating a folder to extract the files to, so checking this option will not create a folder with the files inside. You can then create a folder yourself. Note that there are a lot of garbage files 82kb big included that you can delete. They all in the format "._##(space)filename.m4a"

I used tio have both 1 and 2 on LP. Great records!! I, too, thought the maroon one was better.
