You're missing a "no" in the first sentence of the Om review...

Thanks for pointing that out -- it's fixed now. I shudder to think at what other linguistic atrocities are in there... I've been sick and / or zoned out on cold medicine for the past two weeks, and I'm sure it's not perfect.

Re: NAKED CITY -- Oh, I just bought that for myself. If you have all the original albums, you don't particularly need the box set; all it does is repackage the major stuff with thematically consistent artwork and an arty book that's pretty much unreadable.

It doesn't include the Leng T'che (sp?) album, either, or TORTURE GARDEN (although all of that material was from albums that are represented on the box set). Actually, there is a bonus track on the GRAND GUIGNOL disc that probably isn't on your
