Hello again dear Mr. Relph and all Hillians yonder:

Not to suggest that my opinions are an end to matters, but my review of the
new Finn Bros. offering can be found here:

http://www.popmatters.com/music/reviews/f/finnbrothers-everyone.shtml

And while I'm at it, I suppose I'll go link-crazy and serve up the other
reviews I did recently on tap at Fufkin (the new Glenn Tilbrook, the new
TMBG, the latest Rosenbergs, the new Jump and the new Digby).

http://www.fufkin.com/columns/glauber/glauber_rev_08_04.htm

Hope all is well and stupidly happy in the lives of these devoted ones...

Later folks, time to return to lurking --

Gary G.

Matter of fact, it must be the whole band!... depressed and on quaaludes
(creativity intact).

We had caught on when it was the Dukes!

As a lecherous old bastard, just let me chime in here and say "Good
G*d, where were you when I was going through all that to the same
soundtrack over here?"

And,
Welcome.

Hello, Mr Evil-Mercenary-Chappie here.

I have a couple of XTC items up on eBay: A cessette of the radio tour
from 1989, and Transistor Blast.

Please have a look if you're interested:
