i couldnt find A$$A the last time i went looking for it, so i'm assuming they are defunct. as such the following issues contain the full interview with Ken.

the quotes i provided here from Ken were originally published in the Afforable$$Audio e-zine about 5 years ago, so they may have additional accuracy when viewed from the context of that era. never heard of Joseph King, link?

i was gonna keep it to no more than 1 a day, but you asked...
