Bring the album "Calling All Stations" to your desktop!
I've created a small desktop theme to make your computer look and
sound like Genesis' latest album! Using soundclips I recorded from
the album myself, and an image of the album cover, I've "Genesized" my
desktop. Now you can too!
The Calling All Stations desktop kit includes 15 wav clips and two versions
of the wallpaper. (One at 640x480, the other at 800x600.)
