How's thirty bucks? That's all I can afford at the moment. I just got the
pixies poster set, so that depleted most of my rare 4AD fund for the
moment..
thanks.

AAARRRGGGHHHH!! ooooo. really?? really?? How much are you asking?
I'll give you thirty. I could go more, but i just bought the pixies poster set
and my rare-4ad-stuff-fund is a bit depleated. BUT if anyone else has
another offer, write me and I might beat it.
oh! thank you ever so much. Do let me know what you think...

I just wanna take this opportunity to say how incredibly disappointed
I was that Warren sunk to that KollektorSkum tactic. Sure, maybe he
could only afford to print 2000 copies, but did he have to *advertise*
that fact and actually *number* them? Thus assuring that at least 1000
would end up in the hands of people who will never even listen to them?
Since it came out, I've been looking for a copy. Give it up. Find a
friend who has the cd and make a tape of it. Normally I would be
against pirating stuff like that, but they brought it on themselves
this time. Bah humbug.

A statement for those HNIA fans in the UK Midlands area - Whilst
scanning the shelves at the Virgin Megastore at Birmingham (UK) over
Christmas, I bizarrely saw a CD of HNIA's King of Sweet right there in
the H's. I think the cost was about seventeen quid. I wonder how it
got there?
Yours, David Thorpe [email protected]
(Also saw some ESP Summer record in Select-a-disc, Berwick street, in
the import section the other day).

I have to admit that King of Sweet is probably one of my favorite CD's.
I was lucky enough to find it new (and wrapped) in a very commercial CD
store in Chicago. I always thought finding another copy would be almost
impossible, but a week later, a friend asked me to get her a copy, so a
week after that, they were selling a copy in the Vinyl Ink catalog for
$20. If you ever want to get anything rare, try Vinyl Ink, or if you're
in Chicago, special order at Reckless (I put my name down for MBV's
Ecstasy and Wine and Reckless got it in used a week later...that also
happened for ESP Continent and Pale Saints Mrs. Dolphin and a rare Slits
and Unrest LP.)...hope this helps you out....

That is a very generous offer. The condition is not perfect (the outer
digipak is not mint and the disk itself has a few minor scratches,
nothing that really affects playing. Given this, I would sell it for
$15, which I think is a reasonable price.

I've only heard one person dis Seely (the "cliches r us" thing you
quote). Some other people found it listenable but not exciting. I'm with
you -- it's very subtle and well-crafted and the harmonies are beautiful,
as are the ways the songs shift in sound and mood throughout.
Has anyone heard "Parentha See", their first album which includes earlier
recordings of many of the songs on "Julie Only"? Is it worth getting?

As I am new to this list I ask myself if there are any other German
4AD-Fans subscribed to the list?
My second question: Of "Cocteau twins" I only know the CD "Blue bell
knoll". As I want to extend my CD-Collection I would like to know which are
the best CDs of this band.

Cliff,
Hi! I heard from another collector that 4AD put out, perhaps to mail
order people only, a sort of revised mini catalogue that fits in with
the one released in late 1994. Just curious more than anything.
Also, I was wondering if you could give more info on Ivo's "Joyride"
soundtrack project. Will His Name Is Alive actually be doing parts 2
and 3 of the EP series that started with BAD6007CD??
How did the decision for 4AD come about to use 7000 as a catalogue
number? 4AD has never used a number with all zeros at the end before so
I was just wondering why in 1997 it was done. Will there be an 8000??
I was wondering if you had any GUS 4's left. Or any T1,s... Was there
a UK promo for Paladins? I have the US card sleeve for "Million Mile
Club" with the adapted cover art but was wondering if anything was done
promo wise in the UK.
More questions to come...
Happy New Years to you and Happy 17th Birthday to 4AD!!

I think most people would agree that the albums which create the most
interest are "Victorialand" and "Treasure" (Treasure being the album where
they were amusingly refered to as the "voice of god"!) And they're easy to
find too!

i've always loved "victorialand". it's probably one of their most
"atmospheric" or "ambient" cds. there's very little percussion,
mostly beautiful, spacey guitars and liz frazier's angelic vocals. i
find it to be the perfect album to listen to during the winter.
"heaven or los vegas" is quite good as well.

thank you for being so honest. I wasn't sure if this was an auction situation
or what. 15 dollars is perfectly fine! I will send a check this weekend...

in a recent interview i had with warn, he said that he has now recorded
eleven tracks for the next single. he also said that most of the songs get
dwindled away, but that there are plans of releasing one. he said that he
wanted to release the longest ep ever, but he was joking.
