    yeah, great comp.
    I got a little tired of FLiPPER after 10 years or so, but much of the rest holds up real well,
    especially UNS which I didn't care for when this was new.

    I wonder if you guys could post up the CLUB FOOT compilation which I think was also Subterranean records. It had a pic of a guy w bowtie on the cover,
    maybe. I was a serial Subterranean reocrds head back then, but missed that one somehow.

    thanks a lot for everything.
