Re: Re: Pixies - Minotaur

First things first.  Vaughan is a university professor now?  Is there no more of V23?  Now that I think, of it I can't remember the last time I saw a V23 cover in a 4AD release.  Not this year certainly.  Or am I wrong?

Then, $ 450.00?  Are they serious?  This whole thing is ridiculous, isn't it?  These guys released 5 studio albums, then you got the CDs, then the Japanese re-issues, then the UK re-issues, then there were so many compilations, then the live albums and now this?  What is the phrase you Anglosaxons are using, flogging a dead horse?  Blah, record collecting...there is no romance in it anymore!  This is going to be my last year of collecting 4AD.  After that I am quitting.  30 years is enough, isn't it?  I will only be buying occasionally, stuff I really like, like Beirut and Bon Iver.  I mean, Future of the Left?  I would have never bought it if it wasnt on 4AD.  And it is on 4AD because there is no more Too Pure.  Anni Rossi?  Give me Lisa Germano any time.

Oh well, the times they are really a-changing.  Or maybe I am just getting old.  47 for God's sake!!!!!

Nope, not new - here's the digital press release for it - it's quite deluxe and very expensive... two editions as well.
