Not sure - I should have asked him - ran into him at Gramaphone Records in Chicago a couple months ago, he's still buying records at least. :) Agreed, "Indulge" is a beauty. Also something I was lucky to find was a used copy of Neal Howard's "To Be or Not To Be" on Future Sound records from 1988 (!) FSR 1006 This side: * To Be Or Not to Be (Bad Boy Bill mix) * The Gathing Club Mix (by Terry Baldwin) * Pain Mix (edits by Bud Latour) That side: * To Be or Not to Be (May Day Mix) * Bonus Beat (Mayday) * Perpetual Motion mix (Kevin Saunderson) Recorded at Reel to Reel, mixed at Studio Media Wonderful bleep house, some mixes with heavy melody, others just beat workouts (lots of 707, ha!), deep basslines and some high beautiful strings all over the place. If you liked "Indulge" this is in the same vein, maybe a little more "full" sounding and not as sparse in parts as Indulge. What else came out on this label? Only other info on it is: Terry's Pub "dist. by Barney's with a (312) area code phone number. I can hardly believe this was put out in 1988... I played this on my old radio show last summer, it's archived at http://macqueen.com/radio, scroll down to July 21st show, (for the spotters: it's played at about the 32 minute mark or so.) peace, Matt MacQueen http://www.reverbmag.com archived radio shows --> http://macqueen.com/radio
