Incredibly non-mass-market "fan club" issue, for the snow flake in all of us. Hen's teeth are like grains of sand compared to this one...Packaged in an embossed paper sleeve with an illustrious color photo of the artists pasted on the back. The material seems to be demo versions of material that ended up on The Letting Go album in 2006, but we don't want to give away all the luxurious details. "Have been watching (with Rene) some of the old videotapes I made between 1998 and 2001 of cable TV programming -- films, TV specials, whatnot. I had about 80 unlabeled tapes, so I had to fast-forward thru them to figure out what was on them. In the process, I have watched some stuff I meant to watch then -- or, maybe, watched in those days, but forgot. One of these was a two-hour A&E special tracing the history of pro-wrestling narrated by Steve Allen, probably one of the last things he did before his death. And also some movies like Million Dollar Legs with W.C. Fields and Jack Oakie. This was a film I'd wanted to see since the early '70s. In 2000 or thereabouts I taped it off TCM via the timer, while I was sleeping. Finally, a few days ago, 35 years after I first heard about it, I saw it. Just about worth the wait." --Robert Nedelkoff
