Hello,

This collection is bringing back some good memories of great songs - Make a Circuit with Me, Clones (my favorite AC song after School's Out), and Tesla Girls. Thanks!

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Not dead but I dont think shes released any music for a few years. Her new band was pretty good. Last I heard she moved back to Massholia to go to school.

I bet she's the only new waver in her class. I know how THAT feels!

Surprised you didn't mention this:

Particularly in the context of the concert.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Great version fa sure, but I was mostly thinking in terms of studio recordings.
