On the other hand, had they left it as he liked it, virtually no one else 
would have been able to play it...plus, "they" (who includes many others 
besides S&S), did not want anyone being able to "play like the Maestro" (as 
if they could, to begin with).  Massive hubris.

Gee - I never got one...Oh! Sadness and Woe!

Best to all.
