It's on a belgium label called R&S, (ya ya, I know.... pointing out the obvious again) which is notorious for being ultra-expensive. Also, SAWI is a pretty damn good disc.... so your only luck is finding the odd used copy somewhere. Expect to pay at least US$23 for it new (if i recall, the cost price for suppliers is something like US$21, or something equally nuts). onnow: Anoesis - Blood & Sweat in London 2x12" (d*fusion) Lame Thread Prevention in Effect: Aaron Michelson --------------------------------------------------------------------- aw-teck'r (autechre) "Everything you Know is Wrong" For reviews, interviews, art & trash http://www.on-it.net/~aaron/ aaron@defiant.on-it.net

I actually saw it at a local Best Buy store for $17.99 I think. You may want to call some of the Best Buy stores in your area and see if they have it in stock or if they can transfer it from another store. _____ / ,-,_) /,_) (/ RESH Live & Direct from the G-Spot, Orange County, California, USA http://www1.linkonline.net/fresh/fresh.htm
