        Well, for the record, the first part of above are not my words; the 
second part is my response to the first.

>>> Well, but did you listen to the Bass (which is quite unusual for JAE but
still interesting) and not to be forgotten: This was taken from a rehearsal...

        My point was that Keith's drumming was/is such an integral part of the
song, and a heavy element in what I like about the song.  I guess I will have 
to give it another listen, though (hard as that may be).
