No kidding.  Note - this is a CD, not DVD.  But you can get it at:

Don't assume that the versions of Sound Round etc on this CD are the same as
on Wire & Glass.  They are very different.  Better.  Even though they're
still with Pino & Huntington.  The drumming on Sound Round, for example, is
light years ahead of anything on the EP.




The liner notes also include all the lyrics.  Should put an end to loads of
arguments.  Here's some examples:

Black Widow Eyes:

	"Smelt your scent by the door" - I agree with a recent poster who said this
sounds oddly sung - like its been overdubbed.


Trilby's Piano:

	"only one Hymie" - what's that about?

Get this in Marty Robbins:

	And when the weight of space
	Rolled like it was an ocean
	One became one
	Father and son
	Watch the sunrise break

Deep stuff.


We Got a hit (extended):

	They made my dreams come true * 4  		(YES! REALLY!)

	We came under pressure
 	We needed time to fly
	Inside the case of treasure
	There was an evil lie.

	We were bruised and battered
	We were bound and taped
	We were nude and shattered
	We'd been coldly raped.



Oh, and  did I mention this:

A TRIUMPH.
