WTF!!!

euhm... didn't you announce these tribute to Suicide ep's a while ago on these here forum, Quiff?

Anyway, I have the Springsteen 10" and it's just brilliant. It wasn't easy to get, but I'm on the lookout for the others too!
And 'a limited edition of 4000 copies each' is only half the truth, there are 2 pressings of the Springsteen 10" both limited to 4000 copies

Quiffy,

The guy who engineered Floodland (Larry Alexander) is the same guy who engineered Springsteen's Greetings From Asbury Park, The Wild, The Innocent & The East Street Shuffle, and Suicide's first self-titled album.

And he also mastered/mixed (in part) all of The Lost Patrol CDs.

I recently bowled with Larry down in Asbury Park. He should definitely keep his day job.
