It's on CD. I remember seeing it next to "Accelerator" at Rasputin's in Berkeley, over three years ago. I had to choose between Accelerator and Earthbeat, and I chose Accelerator. Now Accelerator is domestic with 3 bonus tracks and gnarly cover art, and Earthbeat is MIA. Man was I bummed. Luckily, some guy in Sweden sold me his copy for a song. Remember, if you see Earthbeat in a store, please sit down and drink fluids; you're having an acid trip. | Bob Weisend | | MIME type: human/bw-groovechild | | rweisend@galaxy.csc.calpoly.edu | | http://www.csc.calpoly.edu/~rweisend |

earthbeat was never *that* rare. tower up the street from me had a buttload of copies. i finally broke down and bought it there for $17.99 when there were only two left. two weeks later, there were 6 or so copies at tower outlet for $6.99. --jon -- -- Jon Drukman / jsd@cyborganic.com
