Fella I knew many many years ago used to stick his socks to the wall at night To be fair he did have a few 'issues' after a car crash put him head first through a Mini windscreen, made quite a mess of him, glass in his eyes and such. Really nice bloke but simply didn't understand certain things, mostly hygiene related, afterwards. One morning he pulled his socks off the wall and the wallpaper came with them. 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamlet; Danish prince sees dead father's ghost, goes mad, kills everyone except Ophelia, who conveniently offs herself after also going mad, and Rosengilderncrantzern, who dies for no explained reason beyond a stupid name. The End. Hence the standard precis of Hamlet, "There's a big fight, and everyone dies". Though that can be applied to most of Shakespeares tragedies... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, the MP3 version would only sound so heavily pixillated if heard through high-end audiophile equipment, used as an A-B comparison with the LP (DMM of course...). On ordinary stuff, even an iPod/Pad with bluetooth earbuds, it would just seem to be a fuzzier version of the CD. The Remix is a bit "Hotel California"... I see the Spanish cover version as having sleeve art similar to the "restoration" of the Jesus fresco...
