I have seen also the records in many stores.
The "impossible to find" is just wishful thinking.

The key word is probably "want" though obviously some stores do, most would not. I've seen this sold on eBay a few times with big notices about how it was suppressed by Beck (not true) and withdrawn from sale (not true either). But then many eBay sellers can have a dubious relationship with truth.

FWIW, although I haven't listened to it in years, I recall Deconstructing
Beck as being much more interesting in concept than reality.

That seems to be how the Geffen attorneys felt also. The rtmark pages
show an interesting story of how this appeared to have been a dud of a
provocation, with letters back and forth from attorney's and advisors and
the Illegal Arts/Negativland people.

Subject: Upcoming Tzadik releases
Hi, Gang:
In my incredibly long, tedious and self-induglent review of night one of
Company in New York (which for some reason, perhaps gratefully, hasn't been
forwarded by the server), I mentioned that I'd picked up a new Tzadik
catalog and would mention the new upcoming releases mentioned therein. No
additional information was given for any of these but the very last one,
just a list of names on the back cover. The last one, however, appeared
with cover art and a blurb in the regular section of the catalog. Here
goes...

KEY SERIES
Fred Frith: Clearing (Tzadik 7605)
Fred Frith is one of the world's greatest originals on the guitar, a
composer/performer who has been straddling the boundaries of rock, folk,
classical and improvisation since the early '70s. 'Clearing' is his first
solo guitar recording in over twenty years (since his classic 'Live in
Japan' of 1981), and his first solo studio recording since his
groundbreaking 'Guitar Solos' of 1974. Of the three existing solo
recordings by this quirky musical master, 'Clearing' is undoubtedly the most
dynamic, the most direct and sonically the best recorded.

Subject: FESTIVAL
Hi again, gang:
Got this message earlier today from Matrin Davidson at Emanem. Looks to be
a great festival, with highlights including the London Improvisers
Orchestra, Evan Parker & John Tilbury, and much more. Best of all, as you
can see, there's a BBC webcast involved, which will be available for the
next year if I remember correctly. Check it out.
