Check this out! 2000 copies, with extensive liner notes and some autographed copies too. The original 1988 album is long out-of-print.

Bought this off eBay a couple of years back for £ 50.00.
Sold it last year for £ 40.00

Don't think i'll bother with this one. I did keep a copy of it but it's
not one that i like much. (I prefer Xcept One and obviously Departure...)

I received this in the mail today. Very interesting liner notes. I didn't know that Hoenig lives in Spain these days.

I love Departure From The Northern Wasteland.

I didn't like it too much, it's rather standard electronic horror music with some woodwinds incorporated. I'm sure it fits the film but it's not particularly interesting on CD. The track "Standoff" had some Xcept One elements, while "Sleeping Pill" was nice and tender though.

But it's a limited edition of only 2000 copies, and it has a very nice booklet with liner notes, so there are surely good things about it, from a collector's point of view.

Many thanks.

I'll have to think about that.
