Jim Hopkins at the San Francisco Disco Preservation Society Project is a BEAST! The hours of work that he and his staff must put in, and the attention to detail that they employ have given us so many quality "gems," that could have easily been been lost or forgotten. I commend them for their dedication to preserving a very important part of our musical and cultural history. Much respect to Jim Hopkins, this is a labor of love. Thank you for sharing these musical experiences with us. Jim Busenbark.
