Because these aren't the sorts of things one can find in just any corner record shop? Because they're rare UK singles which, for an American fan, makes them that much more collectible? The list is endless...and if that's your opinion, why are you trying to pass off your Prime Time TV 12", Dirk? We ALL already have the albums, so why should we want the single? Because they're collectible. If there's no interest in buying these things then, fine, there's no interest. I thought there would be...that's my mistake. I thought there'd be interest in the "Departures" single, too, which there has been, but only one person has sent me a tape so far. I think its hard to get a consise opinion when probably half the list is still off somewhere on a holiday break, but - I thought there'd be at least some interest. BTW, Dirk, I hope you didn't think I was in some way badmouthing MB when I said that there didn't seem to be much interest in the singles. Its not my fault that no one wants to buy this stuff...I did. I just thought there'd be some interest. If the later singles sold, why shouldn't the earlier ones? Should I say it one more time? :) I just thought there'd be some interest. #$%^ me if there's not...no skin off my back. Alas, c'est la vie. ------------------------------ From: juan paxety Date: Sun, 07 Jan 1996 23:12:24 -0500 Subject: Re: The list shortens... OK, I can't stand reading about it anymore. What do you want for all of it? I can send you a check. And any heterosexual male is nuts who does not want a copy of The Sweetest Interview with Bashia breathing in between the radio cuts. I listened to the tape with headphones - what a lift. I have to see the hair styles. I just picked up a 45 in the original sleeve of my other favorite girl, Gloria Estefan, and her hair is great. hasta, john ------------------------------ From: Vince Mora Date: Sun, 7 Jan 1996 21:31:50 -0700 (MST) Subject: Re: The list shortens...

Ok, after hearing this I can't resist. :-) JS, what do I have to do to get a copy of this?
