Will they not be watching out for evil old me now, though, if I were to relist? I'm quite happy to sell it through the list here. Shall we say the first person to give me £18 gets it? The on-list sales I did last week went well, and I hope people have started to receive their vinyl!

So, yes, you could relist it, by blotting out parts of Razormaid - i.e. R*z*rmaid - they probably wouldn't notice that! ;-) -----Original Message----- On Behalf Of John Milne Yup, I saw Razormaid's website and it seems extraordinary letigate. I've e-mailed them and pointed out the many copies of "Lost Sounds of Mu 2" that have been sold recently ... but I can't imagine it'll make much odds. I wouldn't care if I was a big time bootlegger, but getting rid of a huge record collection usually includes bootlegs (I can't imagine many record-collectors don't have some boots of their favourite bands kicking around - although I could be wrong!) I suppose I could just re-list it without a tracklisting, but there's so many dodgy KLF listings, I wanted to buck the trend and provide as much information as I could.

Many lists did have those kinds of auctions or straight-up FS lists like that, yes. There used to be a list called Whitezone which was dedicated to sales and auctions as well. I happen to moderate a yahoo-groups list called idm_mart
for the sales/auctions of electronic (and associated) music that sort of stepped in to the vacuum which was created when Chris Gosselin ceased to run Whitezone. You may want to post your auctions (with eBay links, when you use them) there as well. We have 250-350 members worldwide. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/idm_mart/
Oh - Razormaid monitors all eBay listings with a rigor you wouldn't believe. Joseph Watt would do better by focusing on meeting his own deadlines than spending time on that and churning out some fairly pathetic
email overload to the people who have bought from him (and whose email addys he now has). Most of what Razormaid remixes these days is the dreck of the dreck - Celine Dion type sludge and bad disco/garbage pop. Watt never suffered from taste in music, it seems. My guess is that the decent material (and historically, there was a good lot of it in the 80s) they did remix was either the selection of his deceased partner (Art Maharg) or due to solicitation from the artists or labels themselves when RM began to be "the" name for club mixes back in the day. It a sad and steaming pile of poop these days.
