Date: 02 Oct 1998 03:59:44 -0000 Hello all! In keeping with traditional mailing list decorum, allow me to introduce myself! I've been a fellow hatter for 15 years now and have since been lucky enough to acquire much rare MWH vinyl such as the hour long Montreal Mirror interview from 1988 on LP, a few Argentina 7", the Safety Dance shaped disc and the picture disc LP of ROY. I briefly owned the FOTE CD in my teen years for $12.99 on the MCA label, but promptly returned it for it didn't include the listed 12" mix of Where Do The Boys Go. I've been kicking myself ever since! On a lighter note, I was fortunate enough to see Ivan open for Duran Duran in Toronto in December. I made quite a nice stereo boot of it as well (for personal use only of course, although I would love to trade for any MHW video, even Safety Dance). Speaking of trading video, I have MWH's appearance on the Ross Schaffer show doing PGTW in 1987, and also a video of the short-lived US Top Of The Pops appearance from the same year if anyone is interested. For Gary Numan fans, I run the Gary Numan North American Fan Club. I use to publish monthly fanzines but these days it exists for all to enjoy on the WWW at: http://members.aol.com/PolareBear/Machman.html For Numan traders, I have hundreds of live shows on audio and video if you are interested. Anyway, greetings to all and I look forward to membership on this awesome list.

I also live in the UK but have been unable to find it anywhere. Could Myke (or anyone for that matter) let me know where he is obtaining it so that I can get a copy for myself. Also, while I'm here - great bootlegs (although the Washington gig is a pretty ropey performance) but are there any recordings out there of concerts from the P.G.T.W / 21st Century era. As great as they are, you can only have so many recordings of the same 10 or so songs and I'd love to hear some live stuff from the later albums.

I had some delays with the printer and also my computer. Last week my 19 inch monitor made a loud POP and smoke came out of the top so I was a week without a monitor until I bought another one. Anyway all cds are available now. If you were one of the ones that have already sent me a check and have not received any cds you should see it in the next 10-15 days or so (about three people. I ran out of artwork for certain CDs and could not ship them out). Just so everyone knows I do not cash any checks until the cds are in the mail. I have all the artwork for the CDs so wait time should not be very long. The newest CD to the collection is CD #10 which is a CD-ROM that can only be played in your computer. This CD has all the boots on it (Cds 1-9) in mp3 format. After messing around with PC and MAC format I have decided that I will not make a single CD that will play in both. I have been able to burn a PC and a MAC session but I can not have them point to the same data on the disc. So if you want the CD-ROM be sure to tell me if you want MAC or PC format. There are also a few bonus tracks and some music videos on the CD. The bonus tracks are covers done by other bands. There is nothing extra on the CD that can not be downloaded from my website at www.holdman.com/mwh Now is the time to order any of the boots that you want. All of them are available including the New ones.

I am not really into this to make money but people have requested if they can just get the CD instead of having to download the mp3s and to burn their own CD. CD10 is pretty much a copy of everthing that is on my website. All CDs are $15 each (including the CD-ROM) which include Professional Printed Color artwork. Shipping is included in the price but if shipping is outside of the united states add another $5 to your order. If you want you can email me if you have any questions or you can just go ahead and send me a check. Send it to Richard Holdman 112 north 300 east Pleasant Grove, Utah 84062 I prefer checks instead of CASH but will accept anything. No checks are cashed until the cds are in the mail. This way if I die or get in a accident and I have cashed your check you should get the cds still. Well thats abouts it. Oh.. I did use some audio tools to remove tape hiss and other noises in CDs 6 and 7. I used Sound Forges Audio Restoration took kit. What you do is take a part of the recording that has no music or anything else on it and make a noiseprint. It then compares this against all the music and takes it out.

I got hooked on (what else?) "The Safety Dance" back when it first came out when I was only a little kid. It was on a compliation tape a cousin made for me which included other classics like "Putting On The Ritz" by Taco and "Beat It" by MJ. That's what basically got me into pop music and synth-pop in particular (I program synths and I'm a big Erasure/Gary Numan fan). I had basically forgetten about the group until I took a trip to Montreal two summers ago and noticed the "Greatest Hats" in a local HMV. I got that and the U.S. version ("Collection") and I recently got Ivan's album. Now I'm dying to buy the "Rhythm of Youth/Folks of the 80's III" double-cd but I can't find it anywhere. It's not listed at Oglio's site nor any other site I could find. If anyone has a spare copy or can point me in the right direction in buying one, I'd very much appreciate it.

I've been a Hats fan for about 10 years now. I own ROY on cassette, FOTE III on cassette, PGTW, 21st Century, and Sideways on CD. My question is this: Why is it so hard to get a copy of ROY and FOTE III on CD? I know they are rare, but there has to be someone out there that has these CDs or knows someone who does and has access to a CD ROM burner. If I had these CDs, I would burn copies for everyone (seriously). I'll probably pick up the 2-fer soon from my London connection, so it's not a huge deal right now.

They WERE mastered from the original CDs, then they were re-EQed and tweaked to sound as good as the 1987- CDs. The Greatest Hats and Collection CDs were not mastered from the original CDs, thats why they sound "old". But my point is the 2fer is excellent sound quality, unlike the others.

Has anyone noticed that there is a big knowledge gap between the new list members and the old list members? I am talking about the people who have joined in the last year or so. The new people have no idea what the list has done in the past 5 years or so. I think we should start posting info about 1. How to find 2fer CDs 2. How to get Freeways CD 3. How to get fan concert CDs etc. 4. How to get Men Without Hats videotape w/ concert and all videos. I for one would be happy to help any of the new folks find rare stuff. Beleive me, this list has already got it all. Just post what you do have, and the listmembers will help ya get the stuff you DONT have. :-) I sure will, anyway.

Oglio released the Men Without Hats "Rhythm of Youth/Folk of the '80s" 2 for 1 CD _outside_ the USA in mid-February 1997. It has not been sold in stores, mail order only. We are still trying to get permission to release it in the USA and Canada. Still no word yet. CMC International/EMI Records just released the companion CD in Europe called "The Best of Men Without Hats." This CD is esentially the same thing but with different artwork and slightly fewer tracks. I have a copy of this CD in my hands now. The part number is CMC8231662 in case you find a place to special order it. If you are _outside_ the USA or Canada I can sell you one of Oglio's directly. Otherwise, you must find it as an import or buy it from a friend overseas. For those outside North America: The CD is $15.98 US dollars + $6 US dollars shipping. I suggest a credit card for the best exchange rate. Second best would be an international money order made out in US Dollars. *** Credit Card (Visa/MC/Amex) *** e-mail to info@oglio.com or fax at (310) 798-3728 Include card number, expiry date, billing address, shipping address, telephone number. *** Money order *** Oglio Records PO Box 404-MWH241 Redondo Beach CA 90277 Don't for get to include your shipping address.

This is also why we don't want to go around making CDRs of Rhythm of Youth and Folk of the Eighties. Oglio Records needs to sell as many of the 2fer CDs as possible. If they sell well: 1. They won't be deleted 2. They could be released in US and Canada And like I said, You can't beat the quality of the 2fer CD. Also the artwork is EXACTLY the same artwork as the original issue CDs. Oglio records made the reissues perfect, basically. If you live in USA or Canada, european listmembers have already stocked up on some of these just for you. There's your friend in Europe.

Date: 21 Oct 1998 00:19:30 +0000 I am so pleased that I joined this list. I thought I was a pretty big MWH fan.......turns out most of you guys put me to shame. I recently sent out an e-mail (Comments and Questions), and can not believe how many of you responded to me. You all have been incredibly helpful in soothing my frustration with trying to find MWH CDs.

I think we should try it again now that we've been exposed to all this new material. Of course, mine, as well as much of your favorites, I'm sure, change everyday. But maybe pick your five favorites as of now. Tell whether it's a live version or studio or demo. I'll think of mine and respond back later.

Sorry for the BIG delay. Don't worry. I have both of your addresses written down. So you will get your videotapes soon. I have been slacking on this because my one and only television just broke. On the other hand, there is no reason why I can't dupe the videotapes without it. I am going to use the auto tracking (its quite nice) and listen to the audio on the stereo to make sure everything is ok. Going to get your blanks now. If anyone else wants the Men Without Hats videos, send me your mailing address. I'll get you down and then I'll send your videos.
