CHOMP!

Can anyone tell me if the Griffin "Astounding Sounds..." CD has the
parody adverts included. Also, is it a remastered album (same goes for
"Quark")???

William

The ASAM CD has the parody adverts spread across three of the eight pages of the booklet. The other  pages have a kind of silly ad (the Art-Deco rocketship on the red dart-boardish solar system with the following verbiage: "It's the SUPER SONIC ROCKET SPEAKERS / HI-FI MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC / A MUST FOR EVERY HOME / IN GLORIOUS STEREOPHONIC SOUND / FREE TOY - CUT OUT AND USE AS A DART BOARD. DARTS NOT INCLUDED) on one page and a take-off of the Nuremburg-ish stone hawk with the following verbiage in an exploding word-balloon IT MIXES / IT SLICES / IT DICES. Below the hawk it reads IT'S THE EVER POPULAR AND ALWAYS AMAZING...HAWKWIND. The front and end pieces have the standard ASAM artwork....

No indication if it was remastered, but it sounds real good to these old ears. Oh, and there is the matter of the three extra tracks, "Dream Of Isis", "Back On The Street" and "Honky Dorky".

Can't tell you about QS&M, only have my old CD, not the new one (have only seen it in the box version with the Queen Of Deleria book. Don't really want to pay US$30 for it, what with no new music...)

objCDPlayer; Mastermind IV / Until Eternity (IMHO, best prog-rock release of 1996! Bill Berends is the master of the MIDI synth-guitar!)
