Anyone know if Blondie Chaplin's CD Between Us is still available anywhere? Hoping to find tangible product rather than a download if possible. His own site's store is locked out to the world.

There's one on amazon.com used for about $42, or you can download it for $9. That took me all of 2 seconds to find.

OK, so I'm renowned for having a short fuse and being overly pissy at times but really, it would be nice if, instead of asking others to do the legwork for them, someone would just once at least try on their own first. Just once. Is that too much to ask ?  I'm currently researching something about as far removed from The Beach Boys as you could imagine, and I'm doing it by using this here internet thing, buying old books from amazon, going to libraries and so on. The field is much, much smaller than that of the BB, and you know what ? I'm enjoying doing my own legwork and making some spectacular errors. This way comes experience and knowledge.

Andrew - while you're out and about, could you pick me up a six-pack?  Thanks... :lol

Marty, Marty, Marty... you know what the dependency counsellor said.  :)

I'll drink to THAT!!!

I understand he's getting ready to release a new one, something similar to Fragile Thread, so maybe his store will unlock then.  

The CD that Andrew mentioned is the last avaible copy of Between Us.
I searched several another stores for you, but didn't found any copy.

Been there, seen that... have tried many other sites too.

I was just after a new unused copy at a reasonable price, pref from a UK-friendly seller, is all.  And I already stated, the download's not for me.

As it is, I found one on eBay international at a reasonable price.

And let's face it, if you were really busy researching, you wouldn't have time to fly off the handle at we lesser mortals, would you.

Ya know even the gods have to take a relaxation breather now and then, to stay fresh in their regularly scheduled duties.
Where is Ebay International?

Searched eBay.co.uk but it came up with no results, just displaying the find on international eBay sites.  I guess I should have used a lower case "i" but, given the way capital letters are scattered randomly through the language these days ("SMiLE" was pioneering in leading the corruption of our glorious written scriPt), I thought no-one would noticE!

... and gosh darn, now I'm too cowed to dare ask about Fragile Thread cos I k ow it hasn't even been released... pardon me!      ::)

Check Bas' site here:  http://www.the-flames.com/        and root around; I'm certain you'll find pretty much anything you need to know

I multi-task.  ;D

Many thanks Bgas. The Wiki entry on Blondie is interesting as it implies that Fragile Thread is "out there"... what with Blondie, Dave, Mike's stuff not being available there's almost scope for a special interest label to press and flog otherwise unavailable BBs projects to the likes of me who missed most of the first time around.

I shan't ask where the broom handle resides when you're cleaning!!!

:D

Andrew always keeps a spotless floor.  ;)

Go on...admit it. Its that Wishbome Ash book you have been dreaming of writing!!! ;D
