that's not KaTe, but rather kate smith (i think that is what her name was).
some bootleggers thought it would be funny and lifted the nudes from pent-
house. dunno if they ever got caught - but they sure did start lots of rum-
ors.

a double lp pressed from the various vinyl singles. as you say, not partic-
ularly spectacular in sound quality. but until the boxset was released, this
was one of the best ways to get many of the b-sides and such which were
otherwise even harder to track down. heh - considering the cost of the box
set, this may still be a more feasible way to get some of those songs (un-
less you have a friend with the set who doesn't mind a little dubbing here
and there).
