Then get ready for the ride of your life, both on video including audio or just audio alone. The Site tells you what you must have in the way of downloads. I am downloaded to the hilt. I chose Blinded me with Science video at ISDN (quit flaunting us Frank). Tremendous video and sound. Superb. Then I chose Audio. Incredible. Nothing better than RealAudio on the Web. These are complete renditions in either version. None of this is just a clip. And now I interrupt myself to revisit the Site to listen to Mind's Eye. Tell you about it later. I am back. Video much better than Blinded but only because of content more pleasing to this observer. More in pace or keeping with the concept of the song. Colorful and insightful. Really unique. Audio is better than a CD. These are lengthy renditions. No skimping. TDR is quite an enigma. It is difficult to determine to which drummer he marches. He certainly is no stranger to innovations. And he certainly is bursting with talent. I salute you TDR. I just found this site by accident in that I subscribe to a CNET newsletter. I am glad I do. And now I wish to share my good fortune with other Alloyans on this planet and elsewhere. Pleasant viewing and listening. A late arrival to TDR.
