(Which made me want to write and urge her to release it in a brown paper bag! Actually, I'm just kidding. By the way, anyone out there holding out any hopes for a gatefold sleeve for K.B.V? "LIONHEART" and "NEVER FOR EVER" both had them (except the Japanese pressing of LIONHEART which was a single fold sleeve) (Oh - and lest we forget EMI-AMERICA's cramming of the N.F.E. artwork onto a flimsy thin paper BLACK AND F#$%'n WHITE dust sleeve - Typical) ANYWAY, I seriously doubt it, since the days of opulent record jackets seem to be over. (except for Joni Mitchell [Kate's Mother?] who managed to get every single one of her records out on gatefold sleeves - but where are all the CD's besides yuppie "Court and Spark?" I saw a CD of "Wild Things Run Fast" [even more yuppie], but I didn't buy it, and have been kicking myself ever since, 'cos It's NOWHERE. Oh well) Talk about off the subject... Anyway, Doug Alan's rumor is probably more correct than mine, although Kate has a lot of leverage with EMI and one would think that she would get her way. What's wrong with the title SHE picked, anyway? Are they afraid it's going to be attacked by J. Falwell or something? Let's here more about people's opinions about Kate's Videos, OK? I got a letter from a friend in Virginia who told me that he had a friend who had THE DREAMING on CD, but when I sent him a frenzied letter back demanding a copy, he confessed that he made a boo-boo. Speaking of CD's, THE KICK INSIDE sounds really good, and so does MOST of LIONHEART, but "In The Warm Room" sounds as though she used the same tape deck as Bruce Springsteen did on "Nebraska!!" Hissssssssssssssssssssss..... Finally, would the person who wrote that hilarious article on Kate and Gender confusion and siamese twins, etc, PLEASE mail it to me or re-post it, since it was deleted before I knew how to save files. (I'm new to all this, by the way)... BUT...don't send to the above address...instead, mail any messages to "burke@ucbdean" I have to leech of my bosses account and to make the issue even more confused, I'm now using my OLD bosses account. So I'm really NOT "Robin Hoek." I'm Hugh Maher, a 3rd year student at U.C. Berkeley, working on another account in the Dean's office of Engineering. Suspended in Boredom, Hugh
