BOC

[gary shindler]

Yeah, I think they've reissued "Club Ninja" with extras and it's one of my least 
favorites, hell probably the worst, in my opinion. "Imaginos" is the best, since 
Albert was in the band. Hmm...coincidence?

Indeed, they did not.  Which is a shame.

Of course ... the holy grail would be ... an Imaginos upgrade! :)

Shortly after the devil straps on his ice skates ..... ;)
