 MV> I'm still looking for a CD that pretty much replicates the old
 MV> Yardbirds' Greatest Hits vinyl LP. Any hints on *any* 'birds G.H. CDs
 MV> would be much appreciated. I'm looking at an old Schwann book that shows
 MV> a couple of Rhino discs and a couple of Sony Special Editions discs..

 I've seen a bunch of others! In fact, repackaging the Yardbirds' catalog
 into "greatest hits" discs seems to be almost a cottage industry for some
 small (mostly!) fly-by-night labels. I've got one on the Masters label out
 of Holland entitled _Yardbirds' Golden Hits_.

 MV> ..and no single CD that looks like it might have "I'm Not Talking" and
 MV> "Happenings Ten Years' Time Ago"..

 Naw, this one has I'm A Man/Jeff's Blues/Shapes Of Things/The Train Kept A
 Rolling/Boom Boom/I Ain't Got You/Good Morning Little Schoolgirl/Still I'm
 Sad/For Your Love/Too Much Monkey Business. The sound quality is nothing
 spectacular, but it's decent (especially for a $7.99 point-of-purchase rack
 offering, which this disc is).

 (Box Of Frogs)
 MV> Rory Gallagher?

 Yup, he appears on.. looks like 6 tracks.

 MV> How old is the _Box of Frogs_ album?

 The first album was released in '84, and _Strangeland_ in '86.

 MV> CD info (#)?

 It's on the Renaissance label (distributed by Sony), cat. no. RMED00106.

 DM>> NP: Sam Kinison _Live From Hell_

 MV> ..laughing so hard I was weeping.

 Another Kinison fan? Hmmmm. I dunno, something about the man causes me
 to practically sprain my finger on the "channel change" button when I
 run across him while channel surfing...  ;-)

 MV> ..about four songs--Sam's vocals with some decent backup by Steve
 MV> Vai and others.

 No kiddin'? Now THAT I'd like to hear.. at least once!

 NP: the Collins Kids w/ Joe Maphis "Peter Gunn Theme"
