I think it is a great idea, but there is no way to know if the CD has been edited. What people should release is videos of concerts. Then people can really see and hear something, if can't be there. I'm amazed that Bob could know that it was edited, I can't tell, even my own stuff, I absolutely cannot tell, years later, or even after a few months, what edits were on a CD. dt
