    That's a nice Springsteen release that I don't have unfortunately. I haven't been as vigilant as I was in my younger days. I was listening to that Bob Dylan record recently and realized that I had forgotten how good it was. I do have several Prism records and I was much younger when I was listening to them as well. I am a Green On Red fan and I think that your are the first one I have seen show them besides myself.

      Modern Times is one of my all time fav Dylan records, along with 10 or 15 others from him! I am sure I saw one other channel show Green on Red recently, but I can't recall who it was. It certainly isn't seen much at all in the VC.
