Subject: (hats) Comments and Questions

Greetings Hatters,

Just joined the list about a month ago.....pretty cool.  I've been a Hats
fan for about 10 years now.  I own ROY on cassette, FOTE III on cassette,
PGTW, 21st Century, and Sideways on CD.

My question is this:  Why is it so hard to get a copy of ROY and FOTE III on
CD?  I know they are rare, but there has to be someone out there that has
these CDs or knows someone who does and has access to a CD ROM burner.  If I
had these CDs, I would burn copies for everyone (seriously).

I'll probably pick up the 2-fer soon from my London connection, so it's not
a huge deal right now.  I would just love to own all MWH albums, that's all.

Thanks for reading,

- -Ian

My connect in London is having trouble finding the ROY/FOTE3 double disc.
It may have been discontinued. (I hope not.)

I took a ride with a one way ticket...

Subject: (hats) ROY original cd

Hi all,

 i have a copy of the original Rhythm of youth (with the bonus tracks--FOTE
Part 1) on cd. If anyone actually does want a copy of it on cdr, let me
know. Although, most of you may have the 2 fer 1. I'm not sure if that was
pressed from the original cd though, since I know some of the bonus tracks
on the Greatest Hats collection were from vinyl sources. The original cd is
mastered from the original master recordings, and is one of the first cds
ever (I think...) I'm suprised it's held up this long since lazlo said some
of the early cds rotted...

Take care,

 jon

The 2fer sounds BETTER than the original Folk and ROY CDs.
They WERE mastered from the original CDs, then they were re-EQed and tweaked
to sound as good as the 1987-  CDs.
The Greatest Hats and Collection CDs were not mastered from the original
CDs, thats why they sound "old".  But my point is the 2fer is excellent
sound quality, unlike the others.

Subject: (hats) New Members

Hello....
Has anyone noticed that there is a big knowledge gap between the new list
members and the old list members?

I am talking about the people who have joined in the last year or so.  The
new people have no idea what the list has done in the past 5 years or so.

I think we should start posting info about

1. How to find 2fer CDs
2. How to get Freeways CD
3. How to get fan concert CDs etc.

4. How to get Men Without Hats videotape w/ concert and all videos.

I for one would be happy to help any of the new folks find rare stuff.
Beleive me, this list has already got it all.  Just post what you do have,
and the listmembers will help ya get the stuff you DONT have. :-)

I sure will, anyway.

Tom
