Well that’s probably better than what I had in mind Which was simply that the early stuff was the best in both cases . . .

Unsurprisingly, no prize for that !

what do Elvis and REM have in common . . . . ?

Everything I’ve read about the TPL suggests you want to be crossing no lower than 1200 and ideally at 2k, so your horn must be having quite a positive impact.
