Hmm, that LaMonte Young would be nice to find compiled somewhere. I just have a 6 min excerpt from that "classic" long Young peice "Drift Study" (I think it is) from the "Fluxus" record that came out in '89 or so. Check the discography info: http://www.virtulink.com/mela/lmy.htm He recently did an installation with someone that is light&sound I think. John, thanks for putting out vinyl versions of Coil releases over the years! Not to put you on the spot but, I'm curious: with the list, would you be wililng to share your thoughts about MP3's and how they are used for bootlegging, making out-of-print music available, etc uses..? Do you see Coil ever using the format for releasing music? I ask because you are talking about releasing a 5-cd boxset and mp3 formatting would be a neat way to buy this on a single cdrom. Solenoid
