Ron - thanks for the comments and yes we will send you copies of our releases. Maybe you need to PM me to give me the contact details - or is there a website for your show?

Just one final point on the specific topic of the Waifs CDs. I am not suggesting that Hot Records are in any way disreputable. The Waifs only recently "broke" in the UK after they received a lot of radio coverage following their appearence at the Cambridge Festival.

It may be that Hot Records are now pressing their CDs and the Amazon stock was old stock. It may be that even now they dare not take a risk of holding large quantities of stock for any of their artists (The Waifs are not certain to go on getting good radio coverage) and Hot Records claim to have a catalogue of over 6000 records. That's a lot of stock in you are going to press 1000 of each!

If I get a response from them I'll let you know what they say.

All the best
John Robinson
