	Choosing a Devon Rex
		Devon rex cats have been compared to pixies and aliens from space because of their huge bat-like ears, large window-to-the-soul eyes, and ethereal, otherworldly body style.
		The Devon's head shape is unique as well; the head is a modified wedge shape with a flat skull, a short, well-developed muzzle, pronounced cheekbones, and prominent whisker pads with a whisker break.
		Devons are loyal, devoted, playful, fearless and intelligent, just to name a few of the qualities that make them good choices for the cat-obsessed.

		The Song of the White Horse is the original 1983 pressing of the album subsequently reissued (by Voiceprint and Classicprint) as Star Clusters, Nebulae & Places in Devon/The Song of the White Horse.
		The piece itself is often bizarre -- one passage, toward the end, seems to transform the singers into a flock of chattering penguins; elsewhere, the two choirs' librettos all but battle one another, the first set of voices reciting local Devonshire place names, while the second sings out the names of the stars.
		Equally disconcerting is the abrupt halt to which the performance comes, a shade under 25 minutes in.
