It's true that the US "Cloudbusting" CD-promo never had a real release, which is why it goes for megabucks. It's the only place you can get the extended "Cloudbusting" on CD, anywhere. But unless you're a COLLECTOR (read: "I buy it to HAVE it, not to DO ANYTHING with it!") I can't see why anyone would want to blow the C-note for it. It's not like, say, the "Relax (Original Mix)" 12" by Frankie Goes To Hollywood, which commands similar sums but which has a mix that's not available anywhere else in the whole wide world . . . :-) Lazlo (lazlo@ariel.unm.edu) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "W-A-6-O-D-B, with . . . a question."
