Of course you're welcome g. a. b. Love what you've done with the track, love the Catherine Wheel pick, love the mix. And me, I'm a sucker for dessication. Very un-sporelike in that way.

Looks like another winner, senor Labs. I can testify that your music seems to have a great ability to enhance learning.

Great mix and it's set me in the mood to listen to Bill Nelson for the first time in years!

Akin to the theory of Panspermia... Great opener as well as great run from Catherine Wheel to closing...yes, everyone needs a little Bill Nelson now and again.

Nice one, Gene. Especially into the Quiet American stuff.
