Are you kidding?? Cause I sure hope you aren't on those reels being returned. If that is true this show will be up there with the likes of legendary 5/2/70 and possibly coming in higher.This would be one of the most phenomenal releases ever! That would be BIIIIG News!

Yes, his voice on this makes this special. It has soul…he’s telling the story like he’s the one from Bigfoot County..Have this in the disc player in the truck and have been digging it extra special.
