   Perhaps.  But so what.  They were/are an enjoyment for ME.  I     
   do not determine my purchases for my own use to be of value for     
   others.   
      
      
    AA>> The "booklet" form isn't bad. But the print can be too   
    AA>> small. Some CD covers would "fold out" to a larger size,   
    AA>> but it tended to get annoying to get them back in place.   
      
    WD> Try that with "Thick as a brick". Or John Lord's "Gemini   
    WD> Suite", I bought thatone just for the cover.   
      
   Do not know Tull's LP, but the wiki on it sounds interesting.   
   Don't know the Jon Lord recording/package.

   OK. Ah.. the weakness of my own language.. I meant "losing the     
   control".  Indeed, royalties continue.
