Re: [microsound] Silence But Louder

In the 80's, someone put out a record called "The Wit and Wisdom of Ronald
Reagan", which, perhaps predictably, was totally blank.

I also heard that someone reviewed a record by John Lennon and Yoko Ono
when they were in their so-called "avant-garde" phase. The reviewer didn't
realize that test pressings of records were often pressed with one side on
each of two discs. The reviewer reviewed the album as a double-record set,
saying he preferred the two quiet sides to the louder material.
