Arnie ABSOLUTELY. I had a big FM aerial fitted a couple of months back so that I could get perfect reception. It's done the trick and sounds great. I had it done just in time for Net Aid (because Bry and Bowie were on) and since then there's been a lot of good stuff on the radio. Did anyone hear the Elvis Costello concert on R2 Saturday night? Good show, from the recent tour with just Elvis and Steve Nieve, recorded in Newcastle.

Well I checked up on the (very little) info I had and can say two things: a} The ad was fuzzy on who's really releasing the collection, there's a bunch of labels on the ad (every company wants recognition you know). So trying to find just who's in charge is damn near impossible. b} The cd's and the vinyl editions (sorry Avalon's only on CD) are in "gatefold packaging, with original artwork". Oh boy. It would make a nice christmas gift though.
