Taper's/Seeder's Notes:
There were two versions of the CD because I gave the DAT to two people to transfer for me.
I didn't have a PC at the time. The numbers on the inserts don't match the actual track numbers on the CD's,
because the version from which I made the covers was inferior to this one, and was burned TAO.
At the time of this show, Sammy Sosa of the Chicago Cubs and Mark McGwire of the St. Louis Cardinals
were in the process of breaking Roger Maris' 1961 record of 61 home runs.*
This explains John's baseball talk and the supposed song title "I Roger Maris I".
