Cool. Now if they'd just reissue the Hangable Auto Bulbs on CD, I'd be happy. Yes, yes, I know. They were years ago and everyone should just move on and blah blah blah...they're still incredible records in their own little way. That, and the MP3s of them that are circulating are partially corrupt. Fie.

You know, I think that its great that they released them... oh wait, that should read ABOUT TIME. If warp so badly didn't want it distributed otherwise they should have released it much sooner. and if they weren't able to or allowed to then why not distribute taped copies. Either way, if the artwork was a reflection of an attitude, think its rather poor of them to take that. hope it wasn't, but rather simply a take on all those copies that exist just like it already, just a keen idea :) I'm so glad they released them... they get to cash in and we get the music properly. Everyone is happy brap@sonic.net icq_12645306 http://www.sonic.net/~brap/
