Album downloaded off iTunes and tickets purchased for B'Man symphony hall - sounds great too

I think it's one of the best they've ever made - bass-wise it's not quite up there with 'The Early Tapes' or 'Pursuit Of Accidents' but there's some great songs on there.

it would be nice if iTunes would get their act together and post this on the US site...I'm going out of my mind waiting!

No kidding!!
I just ordered it from Amazon UK last night.
Who knows when I'll get it.

But if someone could maybe accidently send me an MP3 of "Dive Into The Sun"................

Been all over that since it went up.
They have been in my top friends for a while now.

I hope they will record a show and put a DVD out... I'm sure I won't make it across the pond to see them live.

--another huge L42 fan!

Same here!!
But there are a few good Mark King DVD's available.
I have one: Mark King Group Ohn Filter concert.
It's pretty good.

I did see them in Detroit in like 86'.
Don't remember much really, just that they were loud as hell!!

Yeah, I have the Ohne Filter disc, as well as Live at Reading, Live at Apollo, and the Wembley concert. Live at Reading has better sound than the Ohne Filter concert; MK's bass is mixed very far upfront on the Reading DVD.
