http://underworld.tmstor.es/cart/product.php?id=26807 Note on Beaucoup Fish that makes me wonder if the title of this LP underwent similar scrutiny and was kept anyways? The album's working title was *Tonight Matthew, I'm Going to be Underworld*, inspired by the famous catchphrase "Tonight [host name], I'm going to be...", used on the British <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom> celebrity impersonation TV programme *Stars in Their Eyes <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stars_in_Their_Eyes>*.[1] <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaucoup_Fish#cite_note-1> The title was changed to *Beaucoup Fish* ("beaucoup" being French <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_language> for "much"), on the basis that the tongue-in-cheek title would be incomprehensible to listeners outside of the United Kingdom <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom>. The current title comes from a sampled voice used in "Jumbo". Clint Anderson Systems Engineer "Freedom -- paint me a picture!" -- Burton Cummings
