Lohr) Subject: Oh happy day We've waited almost a year... never ever thought it'd get here, but it finally has. There is now a clip of "Waters of March" on the homepage: http://users.aol.com/basiapage/sound.htm So you can also assume that the CD is here as well, which it is. Its a nice little diddy... kinda odd choice for a cover photo, though - its the same one which appears on the back of the linear note books on both "Best Remixes" CDs, only this one is in full color (while the ones which were on the "Best Remixes" CDs were two-color). Why they would run a photo that's more than 6 years old is beyond me. There are only *2* tracks on the CD, not three. The other one is, of course, "Angels Blush." "Waters of March" is a cute track, but I think its a bit over Basia's head where the lyrics are concerned. Without the linear notes, I'd have to say that I'd have no idea what she was singing about 40% of the time in this song. The lines come in rapid-fire succession, and it sounds like a bit of a mouthful for her. The instrumentation is wonderful - there's some great sax work... I wish the linear notes had a listing of musicians appearing on the track because the sax work sounds very much like that of Ronnie Ross (who was noticeably absent on "The Sweetest Illusion"). But, unfortunately, it doesn't - all its got are the lyrics for both songs in Japanese and English. For folks out there who have a nearby CD shop or dealer who can get them imports, the serial number is: ESCA-6620. Still don't know what ESCA-6352 is supposed to be now that "Waters of March" has a home, if that number ever even existed at all. Hope you all enjoy! Toodles!

I tried to download the file, but gave up after about 25 minutes with still more than half to go. That AOL site has to be the slowest thing going for ftp-ing. Oh well, maybe tomorrow.

Fisli" Subject: PW website Hey everybody, I've got a favor to ask. It's not difficult, just do this for me, if you will. IF you have AOL and IF you are using their "Webcrawler" browser, would you please go to the URL: http://peterwhite.com/pwweb16.htm and tell me if you see the photo on the page? Someone I know (who uses AOL) has been having trouble seeing the photos on the pages... Just want to isolate any problems and correct them if I can. Let me know privately, we don't have to air this here... :) THANKS! --Di. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Diane F.
