   On behalf of the Tape Tree Team, you're welcome. We have some fun
stuff coming in for the next one. Actually, the interview was for three
different programs; Night Flight, Radio 1990 and Heartlight City. Some
of it did appear on Heartlight City as well as Night Flight.

   Well, there was supposed to be a bit of a flap about the poster
chosen to promote the album, pasted all over the Underground. It was
the "pink top" photo from the Japanese version of TKI.The album was
cropped, but the poster showed her nipples fairly clearly. As Kate
said "I suppose it's sexy 'cos you can see my tits." Yep, that is
an exact quote.
