Possibly a silly question, but does anyone know of a way I might be able to
get hold of the Sluggo! CD?

Would really love to own this album, but nowhere seems to have it in stock,
and I have never seen it on ebay, here on the UK site or the US one.

It is a sneaky little critter, but any info would be much appreciated :-)

Oh, you mean you wanna buy one!

Have you tried any of the other used CD or auction places? Half.com isn't showing any at the
moment, either.

- Yeah I'm keeping my eyes peeled, sorry if i gave you the impression I was
cheeky freeloader :-)

I did leave mike a message on Myspace asking about the possibility of making
the harder to find albums available on a digital service of some kind.
Although I think I'm begining to enjoy the internet trauling/second hand
shop hunting. Maybe the delayed gratification will make it all the more
worth while! Yet it would be nice to be able to buy it in a way that will
mean at least some of the money would get back to Mike.

The search continues!

Why don't you just download it from Ori's server?

Didn't I see some announcement that Mike or perhaps it was Favored
Nations had aquired the rights to the Immune back catalog? Meaning
that someday these discs may again be available ?

You'd love to, wouldn't you? Unfortunately, most of my servers are
packed in my garage, and my garage is about 20 miles away from here.
What I have here doesn't have enough capacity to host a late '80s BBS,
let alone everything people THINK is on my server (which by my count
should rival Google's server farm in capacity, breadth, depth and raw
animal magnetism by now.)

Actually, it was Frito-Lay who bought the rights to Mike's early
catalog. They intend to use it int their TV commercials, since Tom
Waits is too litigious.

And my Guitar Therapy CD too, apparently.

I'm happy to report that I got my Guitar Therapy CD since then. I thought I'd mention that because you looked worried.

Yep. That's what I saw. You can stop it now, and take off the wig.

Amazon.co.uk has four copies for sale at the moment, one new, three used. All are in the £30 to £40 price bracket though.

When I posted a reply to this thread from 2006, I didn't realize that Sluggo! still isn't easily available...

This will teach me to look at the dates and the most recent post in a thread! Used to be a lot easier when posts came through by email.

If it's still relevant, why bother?

MikeKeneally @dennisversteeg Dennis! Readying new music for release has
taken up all studio time for the last year, but Sluggo! reissue is on the

Take heart, grab the mp3s and salivate at a re-release.
