On a serious note.

Music is either good or bad , the rest is something to discuss till you die.

Although , I'd narrow the discussion by stating that music without lyrics is crap.

You best count and make sure.
That one-less prog lp may make all the difference when you're up for the Final Judgement.

I don't know what prog is. Really. I suspect that I don't care though.
I think I might be in the HiFi trade.
I am not currently seeking treatment for this.
