    I don't believe the Sonic Assassins combined the two.  And I still
don't believe the SA one matches the _PS_ one in richness of sound.
(Though this sounds like an excellent excuse for us to meet and compare.)

    I also don't like A&B seperated from GV, except one the Griffin _Live
Chronicles_ where I think it kind of works.

     And I think the original WotEoT A&B/GV was not crushingly heavy
enough, for all that it had Lemmy playing on it :)

Cheers,
Carl
