Hmm, maybe I'll just get the vinyl for the packaging and the action
figures. But, maybe we'll be lucky and Mr. Davis is just getting it out of
his system. But, even with him and Mr. Lavelle talking about the problems
the first time they tried to do the album, they maybe should have quit when
they were ahead. Mr. Davis was just trying to follow through. Hey, I just
found Rasco and Terra Dėva, so I'm happy.
