Don't say it - *Domine*...!!!??

Was Arny's recording THAT bad? Was it posted to show off technical
skill or for the musical content? Just trying to be charitable.


It was either a good recording of a crap performance or the other way
round! It sounded like it was recorded over the phone and had, IIRC, a
heavy imbalance toward the left channel!

I'm not going to post it again. If you want to hear it, email me direct
on an address that works and I'll attempt (new everything here - no
guarantees) to email it to you - it's 7.3 MB according to 'Finder' on my
machine!!

Either way, good or bad, it falls a long way short of anything you would
expect from someone who tries to come over like some sort of 'expert' as
Arny does and who is so strangely hostile and belligerent with it!

Begs the question - is the best recording one which is strictly accurate
*irrespective* or one which 'improves' on the source a little, if/when
necessary?

'PhotoShopping'...!! ;-)
