[78-L] Edge Bite

[David Lennick]

As I say..scotch tape is reliable and correctable. Remember the "Plantation 
Scene" sound track disc that had to be re-broken so it could be lined up correctly?

There are still some records from my parents' collection that were glued .. 
they're unplayable. Proves that the missing piece still exists, but that's it.
