$160 American? Is this in America or elsewhere?
Where I live (Albany/Troy, NY), it is around in limited quantities. It is 
listed at $150, and typically discounted to $120 on sale. I've seen copies in
Record Town and Strawberries (music chains) and Lechmere (appliance/etc. chain)
stores. People in other parts of the country have reported finding copies in
Price Club (discount club) stores for $100 or less. BJs Wholesale Warehouse,
our version of Price Club, didn't have any.

It also used to be available from assorted mail order music outlets, such as
Noteworthy and all, for close to $100. However, I don't know if any of them
have any left in stock.

>does anybody know anything about this??? did waters do anything legal or
>was there some other force at work here... enquiring minds want to know!!!!

From what I hear, "Shine On" was originally (or shortly after release) slated
to be a limited edition item. I haven't heard that Waters has done anything
other than the debate that he had (along with Gilmour/Mason/Wright[?]) to
decide what would be included in the set.

Hi, kind readers of rec.music.misc,

I am *desperately* searching for the lyrics of an unknown Procol Harum
tune called     "In the wee small hours of sixpence". 

They played it in a German TV show ("Beat Club") 15-20 years ago.
I recorded parts of that show on tape via microphone, so the sound is 
awful and I could recognize only fragments of the lyrics.

I don't think the title was ever released on album in Germany ...

This is a thing of my youth and I am hoping to bring this to an end 
(,at least)!

Thanks for your help!

Has the Scorpions' album "Taken By Force"(1978) been released
on compact disc *anywhere*?  I've never seen a US version
(not a surprise, except I've seen/own other scorps+uli
albums on USA release.  However I've never seen a US cd
version of "Lonesome Crow", either.)  

If anyone in Europe or Japan or . . . anywhere where they can 
find this thing would offer to sell me a copy (or trade for
something released in the US that is hard to find abroad),
I'd be way appreciative.  Or at least country of release/record
label/catalog number would be quite helpful.

The booklet contains the lyrics for each song set in old-fashioned
billboard style lettering, consistent with the motif of the other stuff
from this album. Also two color pictures of Vega in another carnival scene
from the same photo shoot. A personal letter written to an unknown
person while in Liverpool (the beginnings of the song?)

Um, lessee. Some more old-time newspaper clippings and pictures of the
circus performers featured in the album art, black and white.

The CD has one additional track, "Private Goes Public" which is more
in the style of her older work or, say, "Blood Sings" in the new album.

Wow. A true fanatic. Do you have the series of European CD5's

(there are 4 so far, counting the special edition of 99.9F)
They contain new live and studio tracks.

Actually I found the Laswell/Material Praxis 12" somewhat sterile, 
which was why I'd asked for more info on the Praxis band. BTW, I did run out

Summary: I' need words to the song 'The Restroom Door said Gentlemen'
Keywords: christmas lyrics tune

Hello,

On the way to work this morning, I heard the funniest song on the
radio, sung to the tune of 'GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN'.

It went something like this ...

THE RESTROOM DOOR SAID GENTLEMEN,
SO I WENT RIGHT INSIDE,
BUT WHAT TO MY SURPRISE
THERE WERE SOME WOMEN THERE INSIDE.
        { the rest I can't remember too cleary }

It goes on to talk about how there were
3 old ladies, 2 nuns and a nurse.

Also something about how he got kicked
and that he couldn't sit with 'comfort and joy,
no he could not sit with comfort and joy'.

Does anybody know where I can get the words to this
tune?

"English Rose", by the Jam.  It's Paul Weller's voice, singing lines like:

No matter where I roam,
  I will return to my English Rose,
For no bonds
  Will ever keep me from she.

It's a really pretty song, if a wee bit maudlin.

Hmm, has the video been aired there? Or is it just that people don't like the

that should help the single crack the Top10 [it's at #13 it's 4th week on

Huh? The second biggest single in the USA is "Wild Thing", after "We Are The
Worl". I hadn't heard about Whitney's feat, though I do think it is likely to
outsell "Wild Thing" and probably hit 7 or 8 weeks at #1. [She has 6 right now
if we count next week when the charts are not published in the USA.]

I'm probably going to regret this, but -- 

In the interest of NetSanity, I'm volunteering to collect your
favorite singles of 1992.  The idea is that people will send
them to me rather than posting a flood of context-less lists
which will create the usual massive increase in bandwith along
with a commensurate flood of postings from the usual suspects
decrying the abuse of aforesaid bandwidth :-)

Joseph Geigel already provides a similar service with his
end of the year album poll; I thought it would be nice
if there were a way to compile opinions on singles as well.

What I'm asking is for everyone who cares to send me a list
of your five favorite "singles" for the year 1992.  I'm going
to use a fairly liberal definition of single here -- the track
need not have ever been released on a 7", 12", cassette or 
CD single to qualify -- tracks that have been promoted have 
been promoted as a featured track from the album (e.g
as a so-called "emphasis cut" on an AOR record) are acceptable.
I'd also like you to provide a little (emphasis on little) 
backround for your choices -- a list of cuts with a couple of
sentences on the reasons for your choice would be nice.
I'm also using a pretty liberal definition of 1992 -- singles
from 1991 that you didn't hear until 1992 are OK as well.

*MAIL DON'T POST*MAIL DON'T POST*MAIL DON'T POST*MAIL DON'T POST*

Send your list to marmoset@mondo.engin.umich.edu.

I'll collect all responses sent to me in a single file (probably
more, depending on the volume of responses) and post the results,
unedited, but with an easy-to-kill subject line :-) to 
rec.music.misc sometime after January 15, 1993.
Keep in mind I'm only human, so this date may be a
little optimistic.  

And don't forget:

*MAIL DON'T POST*MAIL DON'T POST*MAIL DON'T POST*MAIL DON'T POST*

Lists that are posted rather than mailed will be *emphatically* 
ignored.

Geez, what a review! I'm sold. Your review was wild - I just realized
that Brain is the drummer on a few tracks on Tom Waits latest release, 
one I was about to mention in my soon to be posted top ten diversions

Wait no more.  There are at least two DC5 discs floating about.  One is
a rather short disc that is shared with Peter and Gordon.  Sound quality
is not reported to be too favorable.  The other is "Bits and Pieces",
Eclipse Catalog # 01471992.  I believe this is an Australian pressing
and is limited.  Sound quality on the stereo recordings is quite good -
some of the mono parts is a little rough.  It has 26 tracks, most of
the ones you would probably want.

It's a very good CD. Indeed, I think many of the versions on this CD-EP are
better than those on the album. However, it's NOT promo-only. It's a
commercial EP:
