okay, i was thinking about a bit and here are some points
1. she looks like cut from one picture and pasted in front of that pit
2. i noticed satt similarities as well
3. i wonder how many fans were criticizing thb/emg/timt covers
4. i'm waiting for Wire's explanation for the cover, i'm sure there's a story behind it
5. can't wait to find out who took that pic and who's responsible for the artwork, probably farrow designs

BBC Radio Wales did that in February 2001. It was their web graphic for a week long series of programmes about Welsh popular music called "The Dragon's Breath". I listened to most of it via the internet, but I missed one day because of a bad connection. It was an interesting series. BTW, in it, Nicky called TIMTTMY the first Welsh folk album.

TIMTTMY has a great cover, one of the few "band in cover" covers I really like.

You're on to something there, but i think i might actually prefer Empty Souls, JUST. They've not released a great single since Found That Soul.

I know it goes against the title of the compilation, but would it have hurt to include the radio edit of JCEQT, just so the album is represented?
