  oddly enough, the only g500 i have is the tugboat single (on the blue 
numbered vinyl, ha ha), and i can't figure out why it's so tough to find 
their albums, which were certainly printed in larger quantity than the 
single -- 500 for my edition and 2000 total.  if anyone on the list is a 
vinyl obsoletist and would like to swap albums for the new 
multimedia-and-extra-tracks cds, i figure that's about a fair trade, 
value-wise.  mail me.  or if there's something else you're looking for, 
let me know.

  anyone have the joy division box set?  looks smooth.  new order is 
coming out with _2_ 11-cd singles box sets.  everyone gets box sets these 
days.  last trip to san francisco i picked up a pulp box set, fer 
christsakes.

  for what it's worth, there's a new double cd cap'n jazz anthology that 
has everthing they ever did.  it's not a box set, but it's a heckuvalot 
cheaper.
