Re: can't love the Kinks

["Damian Kingsbury" <damian@pl...freeserve.co.uk>]

Hold on, let me go check.... (patter of not-so-tiny feet in the direction
of
my singles collection.. long pause... patter of feet back again) ... no,
sorry, it's called "Here I Am" and that mullet really is shocking.  If
you'd
like it anyway, let me know and I'll send it to you.
I'm not sure I could cope with another mailing list since this one took
off... I'm getting about 30 mails a day as it is!... let me know the
address
anyway, though....

Damian
