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.
