I cannot find to buy it ANYWHERE? even just an mp3 but....Anyway I clearly remember,before seeing THIS on RAGE [mostly road crew dudes/hangers on,no audience members,were saying one night"[It may have been outside the back entrance to the Phoenician[spelling?] after/before? the gig I played with HITMEN DTK 91,on that home town [for them] gig,on the East coast/Perth Australian tour-best gigs/time of my life,despite 0 lead playing[once for few mins,at an arvo QLD soundcheck a totally"out from nowhere" ad hock LA WOMAN-bass drums vocals [no KLONDIKE-my mentor task master on the"correct" Rhythm guitar,ala his role in Radio Birdman[except recently...too weird?
