        Yup, this came out about--oo--a year back with a companion
double CD from Cleopatra.  It's pretty interesting, I thought, and the
CD is reasonable intro to alot of weird ambientoid bands (with a
Cleopatra slant, of course), though none of the tracks are what I
would really call "space rock".

Cheers,
