• E3 link works for me, try refreshing the page.
• Crystal City E♭3 is a sharp E♭3, not an E3.
• Rush Hour Blue passage is both, but only the F♯5 is bolded because that's how I was instructed to bold passages, the G5 in itself is not impressive.
• where ??
• It's a C6 and it's already on the thread.

I'm sorry but, you should really read the threads (or just use Ctrl+F) before making your comments.

EDIT: Just realized that I mixed up the F#5 from "Rush Hour Blues" and the one from "A Love Affair", either way it's a F#5.
