     Well shee-it.  That explains a lot.   The cover art was incredibly
poor.  I could have made a better cover than that in less time, I have
no doubt! But even if it was "in the rough stages", "Phetamine Street"
*was* IMO one of the better tracks on the album :)  There was a _lot_
of random electronic dossing about.

     So can we return to the old list tradition of blaming Doug Smith
(and Steve Swann) for everything? :)

Cheers,
Carl
