Going through my old clippings yesterday, I suddenly remembered a story about Hounds Of Love that I haven't thought of in ages. Back in 1985 when Hounds of Love came out, I was a journalist working in Melbourne, Oz. Anyway, I remember reading at the time that the first printings of the album wrongly attributed the ''Wave after wave, each mightier than the last'' quote that's on the back of the album. I can't remember who they (wrongly) attributed it to, but the pressings were quickly recalled and the correct attribution (Tennyson's Hold Grail) was put in its place. My question is this: Does anybody remember this story, too? And if so, are there any of the original pressings around? They would have to be worth something. Bigz
