Diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks and all that.

I'm with you in that I don't like an awful lot of the pre-Bat stuff and I certainly don't put Jim on an untouchable pedestal.

For me, it's the best thing Jim's written in years and I can't wait to hear it recorded properly, with a full band (& real strings would be great, but I probably am clutching at straws with that one).
