Hey Todd,

I am digging the playlist, but as has happened once before when you were filling in for the Pidge, there is distortion which I am pretty sure is coming from the output compression (it sounds like all of the audio is going for a ride on the bass waveforms).

Maybe I should ask if anyone else hears this... ?

When I was a little kid I would confuse Badfinger songs as Beatle songs. That is the highest compliment I have.

Who sounded most like the Beatles? Badfinger, ELO, Emmit Rhodes, Klaatu??? Any other candidates?
