        Which I must confess leaves me wondering what those conditions
are ... media exposure for HW in this day and age when no one gets any
promotion unless lots of money changes hands between record company and
media execs?  Seriously, I am mystified ...

        How does HW attract the attention of the media in a culture
where the most popular music is either the same old 120 beats a minute
every minute all night long or upper middle class pseudo-Cockneys?
        Jam out live in Portobello Road? :)  [which would certainly be
the coolest thing that's happened there in a while!]

        Well, as long as I'm making unreasonable requests (release Live 74,
release LiS EP, etc. :)  I may as well ask what plans regarding the next
album might be?  Must be going to be awhile if they're off touring all summer.
And everyone seems to take months and months to make albums these days.
I think they came quicker before we had all this labour saving high
technology stuff around :)

        Damned computers .... ;)

Cheers,
Carl
