exactly, Si!
Went to the JobCentre today, and the Army were there going "Be the Best" ... now T-Mobile just told me I didn't have the qualifications to sell phones, Microsoft said I didn't have the qualifications to answer the phones, and the Army want to let me loose with a machine gun?

I never did trust Ebay. Never bought anything on there.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy.

I find that a lot of people are getting rid of their CD collections after transferring the music to their PC, so I've picked up quite a few CDs of favorite artists whom I've never gotten around to buying, or who are new to me but with some back-catalog of work to acquire. When they aren't real popular musicians you can pick them up for a buck or two (often in mint condition), and when you buy several at once from one seller save more money by combined shipping.

They didn't have CD-R's in 1993.


Also..."Spill?" WTF? Did they consider putting it out under a band name instead of as Beth?

My copy has the forementioned Spill tracks. I got it from Keith Yap. But I knew it was a copy when I got it. An original would've cost me several hundred bucks.

wiki - CD-R recording systems available in 1990 were similar to the washing machine-sized Meridian CD Publisher, based on the two-piece rack mount Yamaha PDS audio recorder costing $35,000, not including the required external ECC circuitry for data encoding, SCSI hard drive subsystem, and MS-DOS control computer. By 1992 the cost of typical recorders was down to $10-12,000,

Spill was the name of Beth and William Orbit for Don't Wanna Know, which mentioned in the footnotes about an album called 'burn blind'
