Not that I disagree, but note that this particular release was on cassette, which means that it's not exactly clear if it's a "homemade" split or not. (Unless the sleeve would indicate "track" times (I've no idea if it does in this case), and even then for analog tape the timing is only approximative.) -- Bogdan Butnaru _______________________________________________ Musicbrainz-style mailing list Musicbrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
