I also have another connection.  Years ago, my brother palmed off on me
a cheap double CD compilation put out on the DUET label, but in reality
another Castle-Communications-regurgitate-their-back-catalogue affair.
The compilation is called _Metal Mania_ and features tracks by Black
Sabbath, Angelwitch, Motorhead, Girlschool, Uriah Heep, Hawkwind,
Magnum, Venom, and UFO.  Hawkwind have one track on the first CD
("Master of the Universe") and one on the second ("Levitation").  Venom
get four tracks---two per CD---including the (in?)famous "Manitou" that
everyone knows and loves... :-)

Gotta love those Geordie lads. ;-)

Cheers,

Paul.
