Richard's version blows away the versions I've heard by both Dar AND Lucy. That song is much more powerful sung in a man's voice, and no one sings Richard like Richard. I'll agree with you on "Calling the Moon." Ironically, although it's a cover, it's my favorite song on "Somewhere Near Paterson."

Even the iTunes store's best quality doesn't match CD. john clary 303.589.8099 | johnclary.net On 9/7/2010 10:05 PM, rongrittz@cox.net wrote: >>> Hey, what's the difference between digital releases and complete records, anyway?
