Well of COURSE!!! She's a "cubana"!!! (although white...) My wife saw her in concert a while ago and she's REALLY small ...so much so that she wouldn't even come CLOSE to the crowd!!!!

Ahh.. that's more like it! 'The Moody Orange' look.. never ceases to amaze how less is more when you do photoshoots, cover art, etc on the cheap!

I had a Philips dolby surround pro logic amp (Matchline, don't know the exact type) back then and this was the first time I ever saw a dolby surround disc and I had to buy it of course. It even has some surround effects like jetplanes church bells etc , spectacular :banana: (back then ).

I've been quite impressed with some Dolby Surround CDs! There's a Tomita/Debussy CD that gives a really good sensation of surround.

 

[JanBakker]

This one's not bad either, surround wise I mean .

Deep Purple - Machine Head SACD (quad mix)

Why is everyone laughing? is the music bad? Never heard it I guess.

 

[JanBakker]

No it's not that bad, he has a very high pitched voice, don't know how to say this, a bit suspicious maybe ? The music is a bit like Valentine if you know him.
