The software I used for the ripping was corrupted, though I didn't know it at the time. If you'll give me a couple of days, I'd be glad to re-up the files ripped from software that isn't fucked...

I like the former somewhat more, but, as a 65 minute track, I think it's a bit much for an 'introduction'...
