• Casting Pearl's comment: »Rock is the record your music teacher warned you about. A bunch of rock and roll racket played way too loud. This isn't your little sister's kind of music (unless, of course, you are a little sister...then, of course, it is!). So don't just sit there like a lawrence welk listener! We know that you know that we know that you love the loud guitars and sickeningly high melodies that only CP can deliver. So slide you mouse a few inches to the right and get your click on. Be the coolest kid in school (or work release...if 2003 was that kind of a year for you). Don't delay...buy Rock today!«
