Yes, it's great. If I had to decide, I would chose "The Real Me" as my
favorite album, though.

If you have some time, could you make a list of the songs, and where they
can be found? I will try to do that myself with my own stuff, and we could
compile a complete discography, something I've been wanting for a long time.

Actually that's one of the most interesting things about Patti, I think,
that she was involved in so many projects.
