Glad to see it worked out for you. I have some rare GW and Burton albums and would love to put them on CD. I have a good Cd burner and the top Creative Labs Sound Card, Live Platinum. What else do I need to make this work? Is there any special software? Anyways thanks and Keep on Rockin To Burton. > CLUBHOUSE RETURNS -- Scott, Winnipeg, 03:21:57

I've been meaning to say, Scott, making the CD & getting it to Burton was a stroke of genius on your part. Also, it must have been very gratifying to Burton to receive.
