No, not officially.  Doug has done some CD-R's of some old stuff, which made
the rounds in some circles, but 'Victims of the Blacklist' has never
materialized to date.  Doug has just been in the hospital again with heart
problems, so who knows what AP activity will be happening in the near future.

We have Life on Earth at www.aural-innovations.com, and I'm sure Andy Gee
has it in the UK.

The Mars duo mat'l (debuted at Quarkstock) will likely be first if anything.

I've got it, though I thought the other album was Alien Soundtracks.  And I
like that half of the disc quite a bit more than HMLM.
