re Ferry Aid single, etc.

Thanks, Jon, for the support, but IED has definitely
repented. It's true that he was only panning the
music, not the cause, but it's also true that some
readers might have been a little closer to the disaster
than he, and might therefore not really give a fuck
about such niceties of subject-matter. In respect to
the seriousness of the occasion, IED withdraws his
purple-and-black prose re the Ferry Aid single.
And yes, he has mellowed out, but isn't that really
all the better? We're just one happy family here now!!
Good ol' Wicinski, what a character! And Hofboy, you
knucklehead -- how ya doin', chum?

About the HBO/Cannon/Thorn-EMI mixup, it's a big
mess now, but the Whole Story video was scheduled
for April/May/June release right from the beginning,
it turns out. The announcement in Optic-Music of
availability on MGM Home Video two months ago was
totally without merit. However, take a look in
the latest issue of Tower's Pulse!, and check out
the full-page ad for the LP inside -- it says the
video is now available -- on SONY Home Video!
(Also Scott Howe, KT fan of S.F., CA, has his
hand-copied blow-up display of the Whole Story LP
photographed in the Desert Island Discs section of
the new issue.)
