I can't see why anyone here would be interested in buying the DVD at all. Surely you know it all already, and being a film it won't be as informative as a book and is bound to have 'rough factual edges' on it that will just irritate you. 'Blah blah....Harry Chamberlin...blah blah....matched playback heads....blah blah....Fransen....blah blah....Graham Bond....blah blah....Strawberry Fields....blah blah....liquidation blunder....blah blah....popular resurgence....' What else is there to actually say about a musical instrument? Or can I corner the market in making a film called 'I Like The Kazoo'? lsf5275@aol.com wrote: > > > I haven't received my copy yet, but I can already imagine being > disappointed.
