Yes, I didn't know of Len performing w/Farflung either, though he did play
w/the Nik Turner band when we saw 'em in 2000 (remember that, Doug? Dan
Ductor?? ), which is where the stellar live "St. Anthony's Fire" comes from
(Transglobal Friends and Relations). As for FF membership, I have always been
totally confused as well. After awhile figured Gammaknife was LaBelle, but
then his name did appear w/GK on some album credits, didn't he??
 When Science Fails is produced by Len DR ("w/Farflung")...which makes sense,
since it sounds, well...produced... As to the availability of the album,
yeah, should be any day now, but I haven't seen it in any stores yet, and if
any stores would carry it, it'd be L.A.-area stores...then again,
Falcata-Galia/Transparency have a history of delayed releases...I think I
first heard Science almost a year ago!

Yo, JJ-- granted "When I Awoke to Sleep No More" appears live on the Strange
Daze disc, but the studio version is actually much better thank the live
version...the live one being abbreviated and all...
