I will check it out on Napster. I hope it is somewhat like Luca Turilli ( Fantasy/Symphonic Neo-Classical Metal ^_^ )

Or Italian Guitar Gods ( Luca Turilli/Sascha Paeth ).

Heh. If you find the original recording company ( IE: Limp Records ), you could contact them and such, or go to Media Play and ask if they could special order it, that is how I got Luca Turilli's CDs, and Rhapsody's CDs ( except for Legendary Tales, that one I am downloading ^_^ Thank God for CD Burners! ).
>If you know where I could find them let me know.
Well, Napster has some MP3s, Aicha and some other name ( can't remember off the top of my head ). Namaarie, Eruanno _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
