        I think the problem with _Alien4_ is that it was pretty good. And
then they released _Love In Space_ which blows it away. Given how painful
the bad tracks on _Alien4_ are (I really don't get on with `Festivals'),
there is really very little reason to own both, IMO.

        That said, I do play _Alien4_ sometimes because it has a garagey
feel to it which is lacking in most other 90s material (not in a bad way,
mind, just lacking), but if I had to sell 10 of my CDs... Yours,
                                                                 Jon
