I tried it the other day and came up empty for Everybody Loves a History. I think you can even have them notify you if the book your looking for is added to anyone's sales list. I saw copies for sale a few months ago in the Times Square HMV, or was it the Virgin Megastore? ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2000 10:07:30 -0500 From: Max Schmid Subject: Strange compilation Included on "Dark Pleasures" The Gothic Rock Collection on Hip-O (a Universal label) are two of my favorite bands, Shriekback and Wire. The Shriekback track is a rather forgettable if moody piece called Evaporation, and the Wire track is "I Should Have Known Better". There are even some Goth bands on it. ------------------------------ End of idealcopy-digest V3 #83 ******************************
