Actually, from his description, I think he probably got Volume 5. I still
haven't got _Quality Rolls_, despite being one of 1.8.7's biggest fans.
The _abducted remixes_ take a little bit of getting used to. I really
think DJ Soulslinger's album is great. Also, they put out an album at one
point by Marque Gilmore of Project 23, but good luck on finding it. *sigh*

Volume 5 is alright with me, the first disk is kinda weak, I think the
second disk is really good, though.

Check out www.liquidskymusic.com - good design, but not updated very
frequently. Also check out www.187.nu, which is strictly a labor of love
and is run by Jordana LeSesne. :)

On the same tip... anyone know where to get Jungle Sky 12"s and such? I'm
looking to start collecting backcatalog and never have been able to find
the stuff locally. Except "Bitchly's Kow Korn", which I shoulda bought
when I saw it, instead of getting involved with Multsanta.
