[> This is great - thanks! Does anyone know of a site where I could download them at these speeds? -- more..., Wednesday, February 27, 9:22am

have tried deancrouch and udance.com and both only have the St. Patricks Day at 92 and The Blackbird at 140. I know they're close enough but would be great to get the exact tempos!
