>    Hi, Just spend the best part of 2 hours combing the  Codex in some
>detail. Whilst it's answered loads of questions for me,  it's also raised
>even more, so can anyone answer of the following for me  please.  1. Is
>The Golden Void merely a vinyl copy of the  Glasgow 82 BBC show?  YES!! 2.
>Is The Cyberspace Conspiracy a vinyl or CD  bootleg of Bedrock (Nottingham
>90)(vinyl WANT ONE??) ?  If so is it from the TV or video(VIDEO!)  (which
>I believe had Wind Of Change as an extra track)? 3. Is the Theta Orionis
>bootleg of a gig or a  mish-mash of rare tracks?(MISH MASH) 4. Strange
>Daze 97 - is this a compilation of  bands, if so, what's the HW
>tracks?(NOT IN FRONT OF ME-JIM LASCKO??) 5. Is Burn Me Up from Elf & Hawk
>the same as  the Brockspace song?(YES BUT DIFFERENT) 6. I'm confused with
>the various releases of Live  Chronicles.  I've got the first GWR CD
>release which is the same as the vinyl, but is the double the one with the
>pink/orange/white Elric   sleeve?(YES..INCLUDING MOORCOCK POEMS)
>And what's the version with the  bonus CD all about?(THE BONUS IS
>MISHMASH-NOTHING NEW) 7. Is the track on Xenon EMG or EMC (and what does
>it mean?)(SECONDED-GOOD QUESTION)? 8. Strange Daze 98(THIS WASN'T PUT OUT
>OFFICIALLY) (see point 4 above) 9 Is Love In Space the only HW track on
>Wir Sind  Der Kinder?(YES)( 10. What unique stuff is on Ambient
>Anarchists?(NOTHING REALLY-RCA TRACKS THOUGH) 11. Can anybody run me off a
>copy of the first  cassette release of Weird 105 (with Paranoia)(ME TOO).
>I should have made a note as I was going through  it, but I notice that
>there are a handful of tracks (4 or 5) that have never  made it onto CD -
>stuff like Zones, Processed, Raping Robots, When The Going  Gets Tough
>etc.  As for the Codex itself, an absolutely magnificent  document
>incorporating humungus amounts of time & effort. Had Mike & Jill not
>done this, then HW fans  would be even more in the dark and totally
>confused about releases than we  already are! Keep up the good work. Will
>the Weird CDs be added (Doug Pearson did a  fine job of analysing them)?
>Presumably Family Tree & Brockspace &  Atomhenge will also be added? It
>would be a great shame to let things slip having  kept on top of releases
>thus far. Jez
