for some reason i thought i'd reply to this one and tell yas all how i
discovered hw: it was a dark stormy night i remember, and i'd been
previously examining my brothers record collection. i had discovered
woteot there (it turned out it wasn't even his). that night i popped it on
my turntable and settled back to bed with the lights out.. well to say the
least the album spooked me the first time i heard it! all those clashing
cymbals in 'the wizard blew his horn' and all.. it took me a few more
listens to get into it, and a few months later i discovered the collection
on cd at a cd library i later joined.. from then on it was hw hw hw!
collecting :P
