(It's too bad that _Berlin_ didn't make it to the #1 spot it
deserves. It's also too bad that Marillion's _Fugazi_ didn't
chart. I guess they just don't have the audience to draw in
the votes like Red House Painters and Baby Bird...
but this is no time for sour grapes. Three cheers to Bob Ezrin,
who managed to get on here twice (_Berlin_ and _The Wall_).
