no of course, because the originality of the music was linked to the author,
and not to the interpret, as the pop music did since. However, we only
consider short periods of time, and nothing allows us to think that those
fetish LP covers will always remain the same in the future...
However, I'm fed up with those posts of music collectors: lp's maniacs
already have their own lists and really don't have to invade this one.

site Henry Flynt's Philosophy... the URL was given on the list some monthes
ago...I'll try to find it back in my archives for tomorrow.
