the original of 'persuasion' can be found on throbbing gristle's '20 jazz funk greats' cd (mute) , i dug it out recently and was suprised how contempory it all sounds , why a couple of the tracks could be afx himself! , tg were too prolific resulting in a lot of 'surplus to requirment' material being released which consisted of grating industrial noise with someone shouting over the top , but they also produced some class stuff which draws a straight line between them and the newskoolelectronica of paradinas,autechre skam,,rephlex etc...,the band split in 1981 cos they were pissed off with all the identikit 'black leather/cod - industrial' bands that appeared in their wake..a lesson to be learned... as henry rollins says 'get into it for yourselves' sm@4th world *cuttinge edge mail order* http;//ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/4thworld/ np - black dog - rue

They had a policy of releasing *everything*, including recordings of all their live shows. You used to be able to get a limited edition "suitcase" containing the whole catalogue on tape.

Two versions of this... 1. The group felt they had taken the concept as far as they could, and wanted to move on. Cards were printed and sent out with the message "The Mission Is Terminated" on. 2. Chris Carter started shagging Cosi-fanni-tuti, who was at that time Gen's girlfriend and that's why they split. But anyway, some good stuff there if you rake around <g> bye, Eric.
