Re. Skullflower's "Xaman" re-issue - I'd be very surprised if that ever gets re-issued, simply because Mr Shock stopped putting out records many moons ago, and has no desire at all to get back into the record-releasing business. The non-vinyl tracks are available on p2p sites like Soulseek, so get ye to looking for them.

I think the masters are no longer in existence anyway.
I got a decent rip of the non-vinyl tracks from one of the members of this very board a couple of years ago, which was nice, having not been able to play that CD for years.
Incidentally, "Chance Meeting" was re-issued in about 1989 or 1990 as part of the "Psilotripitaka" box set of early NWW material.
I believe all the CDs of this similarly got "disc rot" as well. Glad I bought the vinyl.
I am also currently able to put the vinyl version of that box set into someone's hand via work, as I found one there. It's only the three LP version, and dos not include the fabulous "Ladies Home Tickler," which is a shame, but it's still pretty sweet. It won't be super-cheap, but it will be cheaper than the 4xLP version, and does include the art print insert...
