Thanks for the update, Neil, esp. the Times review. Your notices are much appreciated this end. Any possibility you could tell us something about the film for "Experiment IV", and the "Don't Give Up" video? IED spent nearly an hour this morning fast-cueing eight and a half hours of MpTV (recorded over the past night), and found absolutely NOTHING worth watching at real speed. (Needless to say, neither of the above appeared.) Each time he goes through one of these sped-up monitoring sessions of that station, IED lapses into several hours of severe depression. On the up side, he found a copy of the new US promotional poster for The Whole Story, obviously designed once again by the same EMI-America chappie who did the last two US posters. It is a dynamite poster. The central image is the front cover photo from the LP, but arranged around the edges of the photo are inset colour photos of all the LPs and singles, creating a kind of sparkling effect. "Experiment IV" does get a little airplay on the sleazy trendy L.A. rock station KROQ. Look for it in the Billboard charts soon. Meanwhile The Whole Story ENTERED the Record Mirror charts with a platinum star (for 300,000 units in the UK). -- Andrew
