     You're telling me?  Back in the early and mid-'80s when I was
filling in the holes in my prog collection with used vinyl, I'd
*constantly* get albums with gatefolds (which is 95% of every prog-rock
album ever released, after all...) and stems and seeds still lodged in
the inner cracks of the gatefold jacket.  What was that Rush collection
of their first three albums?  "Archives?"  Man, the records were in good
shape, but that one had burn marks on the jacket and the inside of the
gatefold looked like the thing had been sent up in a shipment from
Mexico.

     Curry's a poseur.  Where's Magma, Jerry?  Blodwyn Pig?  Klaatu? 
Pallas?
