I know that the records exists (that's where I got my tapes), but they are hard to find. If anyone would like a copy of my tapes, just let me know. Does anyone know if they ever recorded 'Life, the Universe, and Everything'? I'd be very interested in obtaining a copy. My tapes just kind-of end in the middle of the story. -- -Pete Olpe- UUCP Path: ...decwrl!decvax!trwrb!trwrba!pro

/* Ignore Alien Orders */ The records are available from Hannibal Records. As is explained on the sleeve the records are not duplicates of the book or BBC broadcast, but are still quite enjoyable. The albums are titled _The Hithchikers Guide to the Galaxy / Part One_ and part two. Part one is Hannibal HNBL 2301 and I believe my copy came from Canada. Hannibal's address is Hannibal Records Inc. 611 Broadway Suite 415 New York, NY 10012 Tom Tucker tomt@ncoast

If you say you have the first 2 books on tape, then you (probably) dont have the original broadcasts. I do not believe that they were separated then into three parts corresponding to the three books; in fact they are *quite* different after you get 1/2 into the tapes. -- ____________ ____/--\____ \______ ___) ( _ ____) "Damn it Jim!, __| |____/ / `--' I'm a programmer not a Doctor!" ) `|=(- \------------' Timothy D.
