Sending albums to people is technically illegal due to copyrights n' whatnot. But I personally don't give a **** about copyright laws or who wants to put a price on music, ESPECIALLY on all of these artifact avant-garde albums that probably were only pressed to 100 copies in Japan in their heyday. There's no point in paying a hundred bucks for a raggedy old vinyl copy of a Kaoru Abe album unless you're already a huge fan. If you're just interested in hearing a very under-appreciated avant-artist because everybody else was too busy listening to kitsch while he/she/they was/were pushing musical boundaries (the purpose of this group, methinks), then links are pretty much the only way to do it. Illegally.

Woopsy.
So... you're saying I can't find Thinking Plague albums at homers?

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
