Doug from Alien Planetscapes e.mailed me and wants this message passing on.......
-----------------------------
Andy...I'm quite sick, have developed GASTRONEUROPATHY...this means that due 
to having diabetes 36 years, it has killed some of the nerve endings in my 
stomach, so the stomach doesn't get cues to move food along to the small 
intestine! It has most unpleasant and dangerous effects such as nausea, 
multiple vomiting, diarreah,
extreme swings in bloodsugar, abdominal cramps like you wouldn't believe! In 
severe cases, surgery is often the only answer;I don't have it this bad yet, 
but it kept AP from appearing at SD 2000(I did play with Escapade, who opened 
for HARVEY BAINBRIDGE here...haven't seen him in 10 years, we had a great 
time together.
 The upshot is that I will not appear at any live venues for the next month 
in an attempt to recover. I do have some things coming out this fall(CDs 
w/AMBIBAT, "OLD FRIENDS TRIO")and Rich Orlando and I recorded the new AP CD 
this past weekend. The sound this time out is 73-75 TD meets HELDON from the 
same period
  Far as the 98 SD set, what we dsent you was actually from Bob Lennon's 
video! I'm getting my hands on the board copies on SD 99, and a better 2trk 
mix of 98. I do think we can get some sort of noise reduced mix on the copy 
that produced your demo, let me work on it!
I'm trying to find a CD copy of Arthur Brown's Journey LP...if you've got it 
in stock ("we haven't"), 
   Thanks for your patience, and let AP European fans know that despite these 
ailments(had heart problem 6/11/00, congestive heart failiure, was in 
hospital 5 days!) we will be back on the scene in 2001
                                                Doug
PS are you going to the HW reunion? If so, pls. give my regards to all 
involved, if they come here for it I'll get off my sickbed to be there!
