    Well, ANY music recorded by Mike is great, but also transcribed? That is just TOO good.

    Very cool cover! That in itself sparks so many memories. I've got a bunch of tapes & CD's kicking around that look a lot like that.

    2-1/2 years of waiting for this to get released...
    The long wait is over and you are not going to be disapointed..
