Fat chance, right? I have been looking for this for too long, so I thought I would ask. In case anyone is wondering, this was a record that FSOL put out under lots of different names to make it look like a compilation. I think. I don't know if it even came out on CD, but if it did, I would prefer CD to vinyl. Will pay one arm, or one leg, but probably not both. P.S. - Amen to "Tango 'n' Vectif" being among Mikey P.'s best work. Jake Slazenger "Makesaracket" is right up there for me, too. I just listened to "Groovybeat" in a shop and it left me cold. Too bad. Mr. Gil gil@l0pht.com No authority is self-justified. Resist. Visit The Compendium of Allowable Knowledge http://www.l0pht.com/~gil/ FREE MUMIA ABU-JAMAL. END THE RACIST DEATH PENALTY.

Fat chance is right. I wouldn't pay too much for it. I used to own this, and yes it is on CD. It's pretty good, but it's dated-sounding. If you're a completist, it's the thing to have though. Some of the songs are really poppy, kind of like the Shamen. A far cry from these days. Just take Accelerator and go a bit more mainstream, and there you have it. Good for that kind of stuff though.

Maybe an arm, but certainly not a leg. -- Spliff. Come visit my Isle of Pleasure! http://www.dls.net/~kysrsoze/homepage.htm Where everyt'ing is good.
