Good post but I already have djpault’s rip though. Thanks
Whew! Good thing you remembered that. You may have literally wasted minutes of your life downloading this one!
LOL!
Whatever the case, this is one Grammy Winning song that warrants more than one listen (and maybe even more than one rip!)
Such a feel good song that stands the test of time!
Thanks Ric, once again you have restored my faith in humanity! heh heh
This is a really nice rip (they always are)! Sounds great.
Thanks Woz.
Classic!
