I haven't heard _Jordan_ (yet), but I do swear by _Swoon_. _Swoon_ and _Two Wheels Good_ are quite different, although there are a few songs from _Swoon_ that would not be out of place on _Two Wheels Good_ (_Technique_ and _Elegance_ come to mind). >Anyway, good luck finding Swoon - it's import only. Hard to get. I've seen copies at Tower Records a couple of times (and I don't get there often). >BTW, the other Prefab Sprout album mentioned was "Protest Songs" and I >think this sort of vanished... I'm not even sure if it ever was >released - I think it was supposed to fit between Swoon and Two Wheels >Good. I see this stated all the time. _Protest Songs_ says on the back that it was recorded in '85 AFTER _Two Wheels Good_. If you like TWG, then I would guess that you would like _Protest Songs_. If you are desperate for _Protest Songs_ and can't find it, try Music Machine in Owings Mills, MD. That's where I got mine. I'm pretty sure they do mail order. There phone number is (301) 356-4567. -- Dave Heath heath@cs.jhu.edu >-- >+---------------------- Is there any ESCAPE from NOISE? ---------------------+ >| | |\ | jsd@gaffa.mit.edu | ZIK ZAK - We make everything you need, | >| \|on |/rukman | -Fight The Power- | and you need everything we make. | >+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
