Hair-trigger acusations don't work well on email. You don't know me or my motivations. I knew some of the previous Red, Hot + [...] were charitable, but to be honest I didn't do any research into that at all - it didn't even cross my mind at the time I was shopping (online). I simply listened to the Bugz track which I'd heard on Worldwide, checked the others, and found it hard to justify a price in excess of £20 if that ££ could go to three + other slabs of wax. Obviously it's a good cause. You're reading a little too much into my ignorance. That said, I could probably do more for the fight against AIDS in Africa by buying this single (getting a longer and louder pressing) and donating the remainding £14+ to charity. Does anyone have real figures on the amount donated via this major-label charity effort? I'd be interested to know how effective it is. I'm not trying to slate it, but honestly if I was feeling compelled to support *this* charity, I doubt my first action would be to buy an overpriced record that didn't sell me on its own merit.
