Agreed. In other words don't worry about it. I first bought Das Leid in
high school - the Walter, Mildred Miller, Richard Lewis version. Listen
with your mind open and go from there. Feel free to disagree with those
who say it is great.
Having said that, this is really great stuff.
Good listening,
Tom Connor
