Really-From: Jeffrey C. Burka <jburka@silver.ucs.indiana.edu> Well, I finally got around to buying the import Love and Anger single... when I took it up to the counter, the guy started to tell me that "...she's got a new box set out." I think he was a little shocked at how much I knew about the set itself, not to mention the various prices around the country. Thanks, Love-Hounds! This guy can get me the set for $170...not too bad, but not great. If I pay in full upfront, I can get it in two days. However, this guy hadn't heard about the Canadian set--and he does have a Canadian importer. So, he's gonna check on a price for the Canadian set--supposed to know by Friday. On to the biggest surprise of the evening: Maybe the discussion of this just slipped past me on the net, but have any of you seen a picture-disc import of TSW? This is the full CD (all 11 tracks), and has the sand-through-fingers picture silkscreened onto the disk. It's quite nice. So has anybody else seen this? What do you think is a good price for it? (the importer wants...I think it was $19.99 for the picture-disc. Sorry, but I didn't see who pressed it. He did say that he can get more copies, so if people want this, I can probably buy-n-ship 'em) Jeff -- |Jeffrey C.

Our local record stores say that the Canadian boxed-set has been ``delayed again''; should be available in the next few days at CDN$90 (~US$75-80?). >any of you seen a picture-disc import of TSW?

When in London this summer they were selling this for an outrageous price at HMV. Well, maybe not outrageous for an import. It's available here at standard CD prices. -- Mark Anderson manderso@mprgate.mpr.ca

It's quite nice. this isa canadian special edition of the album (well, cd).. i saw it at a record expo here once...but was out of money. :( > So has anybody else seen this?
