Some folks perhaps find that cover nostalgic, but I am too young for that.  ;D
Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

From the Brexit thread.
Makes me want to throw up:
"Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm" (Churchill).

'The test of a work of art is, in the end, our affection for it, not our ability to explain why it is good' (Stanley Kubrick).

What?

Hehe.

A commendable effort in trying to find a connection there.

Or the lady in the background will morph into the lady in the foreground in due time.  :D

Oh, that's beautiful.

Update: I discovered the creator of that magnificent cover is Chris Shapan, a chap who has made plenty of book and album covers.

Yeah. I mean, Sean Connery on Decca? He was an EMI guy.

The one audio recording I know by Sean Connery is indeed Decca.
