A very interesting piece of vinyl! The group Yellow Magic Orchestra, for some strange reason, is now playing in the back of my head. It must be a Sugar high from eating too much candy corn. Nice post, Paul.

First things first, over the weekend I received my deluxe edition of Olivia Newton John’s “Physical” album on compact disc, and the first thing I did was looked for your name in the liner notes. Wow Paul!!!!This was incredible!!! I mean how awesome for you to be included on this very special package. Congratulations to everyone who contributed to this project (especially YOU!!!). The sound is stupendous and the pictures are marvelous looking. So happy that you got to be the research assistant for this very special album. For anyone who hasn’t ordered their copy should do so right away… Read more »
