It's my favorite, but that's probably largely 'cause I'm a huge Wallis/Pink
Fairies fan.

I've seen it at my local Virgin Megastore (San Francisco), so I'm sure it's
readily available in the UK.  Stephan's recommendation is enough that I
might pick up a copy tonight, even though I already have the Cleopatra CD
(no bonus tracks on that one).
