was looking to add Reich's "Music for Eighteen Musicians" to
my collection the other day and noticed that there were a
couple of different recordings/performances.  is there one
particular 'definitive' rendition that I should be after?  any
comments greatly appreciated.

exactly.  it may have been one big raspberry to the list,
but even so, for me it speaks to maturity (he said as he
realized that he's older than sean and rob).

my mother always taught me that if you can't say anything
nice, don't say anything at all.  in the end, being an asshole
serves no purpose other than to undermine your credibiilty and
any respect you may have earned in your time.
