No, you won't see me totin' any Spock's Beard records to the checkout
stand. I'll just keep getting groove music that has a bottom-end, w/a real
bass drum & toms & such to support the bass gtr. And yes, I know *some*
d&b does have a decent bottom-end, but it's few & far between-- most of the
time it seems like the drum track has simply been sped up w/o attempting to
retain any of the lower frequencies of the original (wouldn't some kind of
timeshift work?), rendering the much-commented-upon "sped up Casio
rhythmbox" effect. And those flickering lights....
