>>Well,
I wasn't going to tell anybody about this until next year when timing would
have been more appropriate for some news, but as is in life, somebody always
jumps the gun and so that leaves a bit of weirdness into this again...

So...The release slated for January is by The King Bisquit Flower Hour
company
and will be a compilation of a bunch of odd show tunes that the band
performed
while being broadcast back in the 70s on the air as a part of the KBFH
shows...
this occured on 7 times... a magical Cult digit in deed... so, from 1975
through 1986 there were a bunch of great tapes being recorded and some rare
tracks were exposed to live performances during these shows and some of this
stuff will appear on this CD.

There could have been twice as many tracks, and a double CD would have been
necessary, However the master tapes are in the hands of SONY and to get this
brought forward and mixed for this release would be soo expensive, we might
as
well pay the band to do another new record... so instead we're left with a
still more than fair selection of choice for this record.

Don't expect the Big three again because KBFH is not in the biz to make you
buy
yet another version of these songs but rather to give you the insight of a
creative BOC,  who over the years performed some great Live tunes, that we
just
never ever got on any of our live albums before.... and I do believe this
release will just simply flatten the ETL platter into dust in many serious
BOC
fans perspectives of Live stuff from BOC.
I know the actual potential of the realistic scenes from the looks at those
concerts and the material that went down for these tapes, but unfortunately
we'll only see half of that great stuff due to the sheer cost of bringing out
dusty reels for remixes etc. so still, for what it's worth... we're gonna get
quite the treat for the new year while we're still waiting for the Ezekiel's
Wheel... not only this but also. Mobile Fidelity has done a Mastersound on
Agents Of Fortune, so expect a CD Gold Disc of AOF around the same time...
