Subject: [RS] Re: hidden track

The "track zero" trick exploits a loophole in the Red Book standard for CD 
formatting by taking the gap between the Track One index marks for "start 
of track" and "start of music" (which is normally two seconds or less) and 
extending it to contain an entire song, or sometimes multimedia computer 
enhanced info.  Most consumer CD players automatically go straight to 
"start of music" which is why you are then supposed to scan back to hear 
the hidden track.

Unfortunately a lot of people use their PC's and Macs to play music these 
days, and those generally have a tough time accessing "track zero." 
Personally I find "CD tricks" tiresome and I won't spin anything that isn't 
listed on the jacket.

I've not been able to access Lucy's hidden track (from "Flesh and Bone")
on my PC and have always wanted to know . . . can it be done?

Actually, the CD player in my car will not let me scan back to hear the track 
either.

"What is his name?"

I think it's great, considering just how well Richard is known.

"Fishing" is a great source for these lines...
