hi ho.
i only watch tv about once every 2 weeks, but i did see the seiko 
commercial, and i said "hey!!  thats orff!!" (to which everyone responded
"huh?").  i have two different recordings of stravinsky's rite of spring
(different orchestras/different conductors) and they practically sound
like different pieces.  this may account for the difference btw your
copy and the made for tv version.

well.  might as well tie all this in to kate..:>
way back in, oh, '85 or so, i found a stray copy of homeground, but
never saw it for sale again, so i figured it had gone the way of all
good things.  but then i found this group (about 2 weeks ago)      
		<<<<<< YEA!!!! >>>>>>>
and there were homeground people on it!!!  so i guess what i'm trying
to get at is that the woman i was dating at the time is living in
hicksville (with her husband -- sigh) where the record stores only
sell lynyrd skynard disks.  i'd like to get a list of 'zines, clubs,
etc. that she could access via snail mail (well, ok, that i could too)
        
thank you for your patients
