This is a true<br />classic timepiece. I once saw a picture of Todd with Van Halen & another with Grace Slick. In each instance the subjects looked very pleased to be in TR's company.Any-<br />one able to send those to ARENA blog ???

Notes on instrumentation & players.<br />Guess who did the artwork ?<br /> As for Karen & Richard...geez this was no accidental shot. They seem to be acknowledging their approval of this album & artist. Now I will re-imagine the tracks with Carpenters vocals...Some kudda ben Big HITS for them THEN.<br />Was SUPERSTAR really about E.C. ??<br /> from: Circle-H to : the H-BombAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9138869043417614172.post-80914081272104871462012-09-18T17:38:34.580-04:002012-09-18T17:38:34.580-04:00I didn't know Ballad had a gatefold sleeve.
