Do you have a scanner large enough to handle an album
cover? I don't, and I'm not skilled enough to merge a
few scans together seamlessly.
That Sam Phillips album could very well sound better
your way. I *love* "The Indescribable Wow" and have
only ever had the CD, but when I listened to it
recently, it sounded kind of . . . harsh.

"Dead Letter Office," the R.E.M. album? That's the
second CD I ever owned, back in 1987 when it came out.
I was particularly excited to get it at the time
because it contains the "Chronic Town" EP.
