EMI-Capitol was the Enclave's mother, and EMD was the distributor.  Doesn't
seem
to be any lack of IYFS or the ep's on shelves in NYC, but i don't know if
other 
parts of the country are having troubles keeping it stocked.

On a completely unrelated note, we're listening to the new Gavin Bryars cd,
The Sinking of the Titanic.  It's a concept project, one long piece of music,
mostly strings with the occasional single piano note thrown in and a bit of
brass.  It seems the Titanic strikes the iceberg in the opening minute of the
album; then it slowly sink for the next hour. It's quite lovely.
