The Birds of Harmony certainly isn't for the Normans.....the reactions here are exactly what I would have expected from the Soul Source gliteratti....a record that always stimulates interest whenever I play it, so I could sell it several times over for you at probably the same kinda price......if, of course, you would be 'unfortunate' enough to stumble on a copy.
