[LAU] Playing a concept album...

Hello everyone,

  This is not about the creative side of music but rather about how to
play some 'canned' (!) music.  A concept album.  A concept album is
distinct from other albums as the pieces flows into one another.
Such an album, when played on a traditional CD player, effectively
gives the impression of a 'flow motion' (no pun here on a famous CAN
album !).  

  But, once ripped to ogg files and played from a m3u source (eg.
sequentially) there are - no surprise - small blank cuts between each
piece, which can be  disturbing in such a context.  The context here
being Peter Hammill's 'Incoherence' concept album.

  Does anyone have a recipe modification of those files (or ogg player
options - I now use either ogg123, mplayer or xine) or whatever other
way that would restitute the original flow feeling ?  Do you know what
I mean ?  

Cheers.
