	Nine Invisibles is not quite the same band. I've got their 
latter Delerium CD, _Soundbombing_, which is realy good by the way, like 
Orbital with a bottom end and vocals by Pat Fulgoni (Kava Kava) rather 
than Alison Goldfrapp. Anyway, that one only shares one person, George 
Deal, with the credits given on the SoF best-of _Let's Get This Mother 
Outta Here_ and that only on one on the NI tracks. It says on the cover 
"featuring Ship of Fools members" however so I guess some of the others 
had some connection too, earlier on, and maybe the first NI album has 
more of the SoF personnel on. I've not heard that one.

	I'd very much recommend the best-of by the way. It's gorgeously 
remixed and resequenced, sounds lovely, whereas the original recordings, 
to judge from the couple of compilations I have their tracks on, were a 
bit muddy. The only stain on the best-of's record is its terrible 
*terrible* title. Yours,
