Hmmm.  Thanks for the info, Keith.

Does Alan Davey sing on any of his solo stuff?  I've only got _Captured Rotation_ (w/Ron Tree on vox) and now TE&tH, where all Davey's tracks are instrumentals (I think).  I think he's got a good space rock voice (I love "The Right Stuff" off of _The Business Trip_, and many others he's sung on) - why doesn't he use it now?

Yeah, I received my complimentary National Steam CD yesterday!  So now I've got an extra!  :-)  Anyone wanna trade?  This is a good bit of space rock by the guys from Quarkspace.

Yeah, after the net reviews I read of MiG, I was expecting something dire, but it's pretty good.

Yep, I snatched up the Repertoire version for an unbelievable US$10 (new) last week.  The abridged version evidently omitted "Wilhelm Wilhelm" - one of the best tracks of the entire set, methinks.
