Re: laughs and track boundaries

No, I mean that the EMI UK CD is just as braindamaged, and the point
that ought to be track 7 0:00 is instead track 6 4:07. Kate's voice
begins at 7 0:08 and track 7 is only 5:22 long. All of this to point
out that EMI's track boundaries aren't necessarily reliable (cf. also
Marillion's Misplaced Childhood).

other things:
- Le Mystere des Voix Bulgares is on Disques Cellier in Switzerland
and France, and is `recorded by Marcel Cellier'. Was the recording
originally made for 4AD nevertheless?
- a week ago in Toronto: A&A ("Canada's Greatest Record Stores") and
Sam the Record Man on Yonge Street both had TSW at #1.  Last week
in Montreal, A&A ("Les meilleurs magasins de disques au Quebec") did
not have TSW on the in-store chart. The HMV Shop ("The World's Best
Music Stores") put it at #12. The brand-new HMV at Peel and Ste-
Catherine ("Canada's Largest Music Store") had the UK import 12" and
CD singles in large quantities at not extortionate prices, and copies
of Homeground at $6.  (HMV, by the way, is run by EMI.)
