        Ah yes - I have one by that line-up from 1997 called 'No Picture'
which is really really bad. There is one half-good track on it and another
that nearly makes it that far and the rest is pants. I've nearly sold it,
but it's a Hawkwind-connected album. This causes me Konscience problems.
When was 'Pleasure Island' from again, or does the sleeve not say? Yours,
