An argument about Scritti Politti? A -drunken- argument, yet? And a tradition on top of it?! I thought drunken arguments about music were limited to whether Van Halen was better with David Lee Roth or Sammy Hagar. I imagine your argumentative guests were drunk on red wine, served with an assortment of fine cheeses of course. Anyone have the 2 singles Scritti Politti issued after _Provision_? I just remember they were both cover songs, which I (correctly) took as a bad sign for Green's popsong-writing future. However, I (incorrectly) assumed the singles would be folded into a new album. If you don't want to sell, perhaps we can arrange a trade -- I've got various 12" singles and the hard-to-find 1st album, _Songs to Remember_. Real B&S content: Hey, anyone know how many copies of IYFS were pressed by The Enclave? That's the one I have, and the label seemed to disappear immediately upon the disc's release. I don't suppose it is -rare-, but maybe uncommon compared to the Jeepster or Matador versions. --Mark +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
