NOPE.  There was an earlier, self-titled release from the Barenaked Ladies. 
 It contained acoustic versions of "(If I had) $1 000 000","Brian 
Wilson","Yoko Ono","Blame It on Me" and a cover of "Fight the Power".

Both offerings are REALLY good, especially if you like the 'off the floor, 
live' sound with the first one.  8-)  The Ladies were on 'Friday Night with 
Ralph Benmurgui' on CBC last month, and I gotta say that those guys are 
NUTS.  I love this band!

The liner notes actually mention that the indexing was done like that
"to complement the suffle mode of modern CD players" or something like
that; I don't have the album with me.  Just thought that was cool.

	At the Toronto show this summer (the bandless, two-man show, not
the later full-band show of two months after) the played this drawn out
version of Instanbul.... it was the usual words, though with the slow
speed and the cacophony of guitar, accordian and God-knows what else, it
was very hard to follow.  I don't know what it meant.  Perhaps that's
for the best.

I saw 'em in Tijuana (Mexico) in July or so of 1992.  The requested song was
"Horse With No Name".  Only lyrics I remember went somehting like "so I 
looked in my car/there wasn't anything in my car/so...I went back to the
desert on a horse with no name...etc."  After the show, I was sitting in
a plaza behind the club when John F. appeared out the back door.  Encouraged
by many pre-concert margaritas, I staggered up to him and said something
like "Excellent show!", to which he replied, "thanks...thanks...go away."

Er, I certainly don't mean to sound belittling either...in fact, I feel

been nothing if not an incredible journey.

This was one of the B-sides I forgot to mention -- it was a B-side to
"Hotel Detective," as I recall.  They were so proud of this piece,
they put it on Dial-a-Song as a special treat.  "And for all you

You presume correctly. The Giants' sets generally run to around 35
songs, so in addition to the 19 songs from their debut, you can

I think this is a question that any TMBG fan should take to heart.  At least,
those who feel that any given TMBG song has one unique meaning...

Of course, what do I know...considering I have a roommate that has
(only half-jokingly) conjured up theories that "It's Not My Birthday"
is a Christmas song sung from the POV of Jesus, and that "Purple
Toupee" was a song about "a person who lived through the sixties but

Sure! "The World's Address" off Lincoln.

Two questions:  I heard about an "Istanbul" disk composed entirely of
remixes of "Istanbul, Not Constantinople". Does one exist?

Also, what's the backwards message at the end of "Hide Away, Folk Family" on
the title album?
